Designed and built in the style of a colonial bungalow, Bye the Way was professionally interior decorated by David Easton, the renowned New York designer. It is the only Great House bungalow to have a private garden which has been exquisitely planted with a scheme of many different shades of green and white. Mature trees provide shade and you will discover many different leaf forms both in shape and size.
Double solid wood entrance doors lead into the full-height sitting room which has further doors opening to the ocean-facing veranda. Off the sitting room is a fully-equipped kitchen and the two en suite bedrooms. The master bedroom has a lofty Jamaican bamboo four poster king size bed and the guest bedroom has two double four poster beds.
A calming colour scheme of various shades of fawn and beige create an elegant and extremely comfortable environment, enlivened by splashes of colour in the upholstery, cushions and artwork.
The sixty four feet veranda is a focal point of the villa and one of the principle attributes of the Great House bungalows. With stunning views out to sea and across the garden, the veranda is furnished with comfort in mind with different seating groupings and it offers an al fresco dining environment as an alternative to dining inside.
Bye the Way has its own four-seat golf cart.
Bye the Way includes the services of a housekeeper who will prepare breakfast and lunch with dinner preparation being available at a small supplement.

Staff Gratuity in Jamaica
All inclusive staffing in Jamaica enhances the value of a fully serviced villa stay by ensuring exceptional, personalized service while simplifying the guest experience. Villa staff, including a trained chef, cater to your unique needs and preferences during your stay. It is customary that guests in Jamaica remit staff gratuity for their villa stay. Recommended gratuity ranges from 10% of the total nightly rents (exclusive of taxes and fees) during the high season (December to April) to 15% during the low season, ensuring fair compensation for the highly skilled staff. Gratuity can be paid in US or Jamaican dollars.
Unlike other destinations where staff services are arranged and charged separately, often at a high hourly rate excluding gratuity, Jamaica’s all-inclusive staff system streamlines the process allowing guests to enjoy top-quality service with ease.
