Enter a quarter-mile driveway, beautifully landscaped with brilliant bougainvillea on all sides. Then see the Travertine-paved Italianate courtyard which is the dramatic entrance to Sea Glass. You're home. Formerly named Annabella, the villa was bought by new owners in 2017 and renamed Sea Glass.
The heated pool is entered via a non-slip ankle-deep kiddie section. Just beyond, 3 steps lead down to a 3-foot depth. Wonderful for children. The maximum depth at the far end is 5 feet.
From the pool terrace, a spiral staircase leads up to a dreamy loft with a wet bar, a kingsize deck bed, and a magnificent sea view. Travel-weary vacationers may nap here. Stargazers may spend nights here. (A half bath is just down the spiral steps.)
The inside dining room seats up to 18. However, most guests choose to dine more casually on the rustic blue wood and glass table under an arbor of white Thumberger blossoms cascading from an overhead lattice. Hummingbirds, wild canaries, and handsome yellow bellies are drawn to the nectar and are the delight of bird watchers.
The staff has invented a unique treat for their guests. Once each week, they produce Jamaica Day, a full day and evening of bona fide Jamaican foods, entertainment, and lessons in Patois. The evening culminates in a torchlight party on the lawn. Indelible vacation is memorable for parents and children alike!
Something almost magically remarkable is the quiet of the villa. To melt back into the deep cushions of a wicker chaise and close your eyes invites only the sounds of birds, the rustling of palm fronds, and the wind.
I'd be remiss if I did not mention the seamless teamwork of the staff and the talents of our chef. From homemade Caesar Salad and Gazpacho to Lobster Thermador and Grand Marnier Souffle’s (Chocolate Sundae for the kids).
Under a 20' peaked cedar ceiling, the Great Room features two dramatic mirrored granite bars with a mini-fridge and icemaker. The Great Room opens on three sides to shaded outdoor sitting areas and the sunny pool terrace. A fenced gallery-type walkway wraps around a lush central atrium with a fountain and koi pond. The gallery leads to the main-level bedroom wing.

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.
