Standing 350 feet above sea level atop Ocean View Drive and surrounded by a seven acre nature oasis and with a cohesive team of eleven focused on delivering elite service, Harmony Hill is one of the finest villas throughout the Caribbean. The ocean panorama afforded from every single room and especially the sweeping pool terrace is absolutely breathtaking and many are those who spend languid hours watching the colours shift with the play of light. The meticulous design and level of finish which melds Jamaican-inspired architecture with a contemporary floor plan, magically brings the outside in together with amenities and technology that embody twenty-first century luxury living.
The open-concept main pavilion with its soaring ceilings draws the eyes to the stunning infinity pool that lies above the horizon of the ocean beyond. A sitting room with wet bar flows into a formal dining room that seats 16 and a media room with 65 inch surround sound television is a cozy haven for those wishing to catch up with their favourite programmes. The gorgeous covered outer veranda offers two seating areas – one with television – and a dining area which given the amazing view of the sea is hugely popular. To the right of the pool is the “epicenter” of human interaction….a covered bar with television and adjacent lounge area and modern fire pit. From here the panoramic views extend way out to sea and southwards into the forested valley and it is for good reason that it is often the favourite guest gathering spot.
With a dedication to wellness, the immaculate custom stainless steel commercial kitchen is the most modern and comprehensibly equipped at Tryall, bringing a discerning farm to table experience befitting the culinary talent of Chef Orane Wright. And there is of course an ocean facing fully equipped private gym, boasting the finest quality equipment.
The seven fully air-conditioned bedrooms, allowing for various accommodation options, all enjoy spectacular ocean views and all but one opens to a private patio. Four bedrooms are within the main house, two with a private sitting room are in the elevated guest cottage and one is privately tucked away adjacent to the pool for those who like a hideaway. All have walk-in closets and travertine or marble tile en suite bathrooms. The rainfall, zero depth walk-in showers are magnificent and as you might expect, there are Bose Blue Tooth speakers in each bedroom.
Surround sound audio and Wi-Fi is available throughout Harmony Hill and all televisions are SMART. Throughout the villa you will be stimulated by a striking and meticulously curated art collection. Each year, the owners make subtle design and landscaping changes so that those who return are always delighted – and indeed look forward – to seeing what is fresh and new.

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.
