SEVILLA RETREAT is a fully staffed newly refurbished luxury villa and studio offering a beautiful private oasis in Cardiff Hall Runaway Bay with prime spectacular views overlooking a championship golf course and the Caribbean Sea. The villa is built around an oval swimming pool.Our private resident's beach is lined with magnificent almond trees offering shade from the sun, the beach is a white sandy beach. The turquoise blue sea is safe for swimming and guests can relax with a good book in the sun lounge chairs. Picnic hampers can be arranged for those wishing to spend the whole day at the beach.

Sevilla Retreat offers five bedroom accommodation including a detached open plan studio apartment. Three of the bedrooms in the villa open out through double tinted glass sliding doors onto the veranda around the pool. All the bedrooms have their own adjoining luxury onyx en-suite dressing room/shower room. The living room also opens up onto the veranda making a beautifully spacious living area with 2 dining areas and comfortable seating for large groups overlooking the pool.

The Studio apartment is very spacious and open plan with its own kitchen and shower room as well as a mezzanine platform area.

The property is surrounded by lush tropical gardens with almond, mango and coconut trees, and is accessed through large electrically controlled gates with parking enough for up to 5 or 6 cars. The villa has a rich history since Bob Marley and his crew came to discuss politics and music when the property was first designed and built by a well known Italian builder. Built in a horseshoe shape around a large oval shaped swimming pool that shines like a jewel in the Crown when lit up at night, the villa is perfect for private nocturnal swimming.

A personal chef, housekeeper, cleaner and groundsman are available night and day to cater for your every need without intruding on your holiday. We can arrange for a massage therapist to visit daily if required.

Prior to arrival we can arrange for delivery of food produce from the local supermarket. Additionally, our staff are happy to go to the fruit and vegetable market to collect fresh supplies.

Interaction with guest

I am an artist and anthropologist who has travelled extensively throughout the world having been brought up in East Africa.

I am always available night and day to answer any questions or concerns you might have regarding your stay. We also have a team of staff and service people available on call.

Response from the owner
Hello Mr McGrath, What an honor to hear that you are pleased with the development of the Villa and how it looks today. The bit of history about how Bob Marley himself used to come here to discuss politics and music is priceless, thank you and is there a way we could contact you further to record this information? We always felt that the place was blessed, now we know why. Thank you sir, and please let us know how we can contact you for a interview. Kind regards
