The setting is breathtaking: five sunny acres of landscaped grounds adorned by an abundance of palm trees, bougainvillea, and hibiscus ... large private pool ... vegetable garden ... and a wooded grotto with an antique stone terrace for sunset cocktails. After sunset, the view transforms from brilliant blue water to the mesmerizing beauty of the sea at night, glimmering with reflections of cruise ships and the romantic night lights of Montego Bay nine miles away.
Delicious home-cooked meals prepared by the Pharos cook are served on Royal Worcester china on the open-air poolside verandah. As a special treat on moonlit nights, meals are served on the terrace beyond the pool overlooking the romance of lights reflecting across the bay. Memorable dinners here can last for hours as guests relax into the heady ambiance of good food and drink, excellent service, and a magnificent setting.
The interiors of this spacious Colonial manor have been refreshed with Laura Ashley fabrics, pretty pastel wall colors, and renovation of the kitchen and all bathrooms. The large living room opens to the covered dining terrace, casual sitting area, and wet bar. Just beyond are the spacious open terrace and pool. Four bedrooms and the study (which can accommodate one or two extra guests) are on the main level. A mahogany staircase leads upstairs to two more spacious bedrooms.
Because the bedrooms are configured in three separate areas (two in the east wing, three in the west wing, and two upstairs), Pharos is as appropriate for small groups of only 2, 4, or 6 guests as it is for a full house of 14. It does not feel like “too much house” for one or two couples and is wonderful for families ...............
“Our week at Pharos was absolutely our most wonderful family vacation ever. My parents, John, and I spent relaxed days doing whatever we wanted to do while the kids were totally entertained with all the games and countless hours in that big pool. The staff treated our children with incredible loving care! The whole family is counting the days till we return to Pharos.”
Mandatory gratuity 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. Gratuity ranges from 10% of the nightly rate during the high season (December to April) to 15% during the low season, ensuring fair compensation for the highly skilled staff.
Unlike other destinations where staff services are arranged and charged separately, often at a high hourly rate excluding gratuity, Jamaica’s all-inclusive system streamlines the process allowing guests to enjoy top-quality service with ease.
