Frangipani at Prospect Estate Jamaica
Holiday Home Rental Description
Frangipani Villa takes its fabulous name from the tropical Frangipani tree which produces fragrant white, pink or yellow flowers. You will be able to see it for yourself, since several of these trees surround the house. The villa is located in the Prospect Estate, a 1,000-acre property on the north coast of Jamaica, nestled between the pristine and azure waters of the Caribbean Sea and the lush greenery of the mountains. A true paradise with breath-taking ocean views.
This stunning and spacious (over 2500sq ft) property is located within its own, private compound and has four roomy bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom and walk-out veranda which opens up to a beautiful view of your own swimming pool and the ocean.
The modern furnishings throughout make this villa extremely comfortable and homely, while the bedrooms have an air of serenity, being decorated predominantly in a cream palette with a few colourful accents here and there. All have flat screen TVs, built-in safes and are air-conditioned.
High speed, wireless internet is available anywhere in the villa, as well as a desk with a chair – if anyone needs to do any work or seeks a quiet place with their laptop. Ipod docks are also widely available, unless there is a musician in the group – in which case the piano in the villa will be put to good use! There are several spots to grab a bite to eat, for either a light lunch or a more formal dinner. There’s a table seating ten on the main veranda or a round table seating eight on the mini veranda, just by the pool, which is even closer to the spectacular ocean view.
This villa comes fully staffed: butler, cook, gardener, housekeepers / laundress (please read guidance on tips) which means you will never have to worry about anything apart from whether to spend a day at the pool, play tennis or perhaps embark on a trip to one of the local attractions!
Outside the spacious living room is a central veranda adjoining the sun terrace which surrounds the swimming pool and extends towards the sea. The beautiful lawn and poolside accommodates up to eighty persons for an outdoor function and offers steps which take you directly to the water’s edge.
Frangipani Villa is located in the Prospect Estate and just as all the other villas on the Estate – is looking out on the waterfront, so everyone can enjoy spectacular ocean views.
The 1000-acre resort, on the north coast of Jamaica, sits right in between the incredibly blue and clear waters of the Caribbean Sea and the incredibly rich greenery of the mountains. A true paradise with stunning ocean views.
You will be spoilt for choice with all the activities available to you here, there is a tennis court on the grounds, wellness centre with a gym or some fantastic jogging trails with some mind blowing views of the mountain range.
Alternatively, you can relax in the swimming pool (or do laps if you want to!) or rejuvenate your mind, body and soul in the spa and massage area. There will be a 50% discount available on all Yaaman Tours which include an open-air carriage tour of the estate, camel safari, horse riding, visit to the butterfly aviary and feeding the ostriches – to name a few! You will also have access to discounted fees for Sandals Upton Golf course. Another added benefit is one complimentary airport transfer (based on a seven night stay).
More interesting attractions? How about the spectacular Dunn’s River Falls, where cascading water drops a dramatic 600 ft within tropical vegetation. Described as a living and growing phenomenon, it continuously regenerates itself from deposits of travertine rock. Fancy touring 100 acres of rainforest in the mountains 700 ft above sea level? Experience the SkyExplorer, Bobsled Ride, Canopy Zip Line and Mystic Waterslide! The Bobsled Ride was inspired by the famous Jamaican bobsled Olympic team and is the park’s signature attraction.
Prospect Estate is only a short distance from the picturesque town of Ocho Rios, one mile east of the White River which separates the parishes of St. Ann and St. Mary.
Ocho Rios is one of Jamaica’s, and indeed the Caribbean’s, premier resorts and offers a large number of both natural and manmade attractions. The town centre provides duty free shopping opportunities and vibrant nightlife. If you would like to do more than soak up the sunshine, the Prospect Estate reception can offer the most up to date info on local attractions, in order to acquaint you with this area known for its natural beauty and friendly people.
