Welcome to Scotch on the Rocks a stunning 5 bedroom ocean front villa with wonderful views of the Caribbean Sea, just minutes from lively Ocho Rios.
Scotch on the Rocks is a charming 5 bedroom villa overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Its ideal location is a privately-nestled cove between two of Jamaica's most prestigious hotels: Royal Plantation 5-star boutique hotel and the legendary Jamaica Inn. While completely private, Scotch on the Rocks has its own private waterfront with a small patch of sand for enjoying snorkelling.
Stone steps lead from the main house down a slope to a private cove and fabulous crystal clear cove, wonderful for swimming, floating, snorkeling and kayaking. Beside the waterfront deck is an outdoor shower. The gardener will place chaises on the seaside deck and the butler will serve lunch there if you wish to stay on the waterfront all day.
This deluxe waterfront villa in Ocho Rios offers great swimming and breathtaking ocean views all day long as well as glorious sunsets by evening. The villa's private cove and water access is perfect for enjoying a morning of snorkelling. complimentary snorkel gear is provided as well as 2 complimentary 2-seater sea kayaks. The over-the-water deck is perfect for enjoying hours of sunning.
Scotchie, as it is affectionately called, was originally built by the late Scottish Lord, The Earl of Mansfield. Today it is owned by members of the Red Stripe Beer family. Present owners have extensively renovated the home with concentration on accommodating families. Victorian fretwork and warm mahogany floors are original, while Italian Travertine reflects recent renovations. Interior design is a tasteful eclectic mix of high-tech amenities combined with Jamaican and English antiques.
The iconic gathering place is the large furnished verandah overlooking the vast expanse of deep blue Caribbean Sea that is Scotchie's "front yard." Sitting here genuinely feels like lounging on the deck of a ship with nothing in sight but blue sea and sky. It's heaven.
