Perfection
We stayed with our 19 year old adult kid and 10 year old. We snorkeled off the private beach and the dock. Saw plenty of sea life. The accommodations were perfect and the food prepared by Donna was some of the best we’d had here. Definitely wish we stayed here longer.

Indeed a little slice of Paradise!
Our stay at Bolthole cottage was very special. Right there on the water, listening to the waves and mesmerized by the glorious colors of the sea, we were indeed in Paradise. Delicious meals were prepared for us, and the property manager Yvonne bent over backwards to make us comfortable and guide us. We will return!

The most beautiful place I’ve ever seen
This little slice of heaven really was a treat! My partner and I stayed in the cottage for a week and got to experience the very best Portland has to offer! The property itself is so gorgeous and the constant sound of the sea made for a very peaceful morning coffee and sleep at night. The staff only adds to the experience preparing delicious meals, being so pleasant every morning, and accommodating all the guests needs. (We arrived very late and the security guard anticipated our arrival and gave a warm welcome). The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was as the furniture. The mattress was quite uncomfortable as were the lounge chairs on the patio which were quite deflated.

Wonderful Vacation
My friend and I had the best vacation at Daniel's cottage! Before we arrived, Daniel was very communicative and answered all of our questions. The home, landscaping and private beach were so beautiful, peaceful and relaxing, and had everything we needed. The staff was so kind, helpful and attentive. We definitely plan to go back!

Amazing place! Highly recommended- With a small catch
This place was BEAUTIFUL, I would love to stay there again. Some things should be noted however: Services and amenities are listed and give you the assumption that they are fee to use. This is not entirely the case. For example- washing machine and kayak/canoe are listed is the property description. Which is true, they are there. However, the kayak was $20 for the whole day, which isn't a bad price, but we didn't assume we would have to pay. Additional, the washing machine, this was the biggest surprise. At a whopping $25 PER LOAD one of the staff will clean the clothes for you. We found this to be absolutely ridiculous and decided to just stink a little rather than spending 50- 100$ cleaning our stuff. And finally, once we received our check in PDF file with additional information, we were instructed to tip all of the workers on the premises before departure. 10-15% of the total cost of the booking. Now, the staff was very nice and we appreciate all they did to make our stay enjoyable and safe, however, if this is the standard you wish to create for your staff, I recommend simply increasing the amount per night and paying your staff more. It should not be the guests responsibility. Especially if we did not utilise all the staff while we were there. For example- the chef or housekeeping. With all that said, I would still come back and recommend this place to anyone with eyes, it was STUNNING.

Excellent stay!
Amazing property with stunning views. Friendly and helpful staff. With the windows open and fans on kept it nice and cool during the day and nights. Property is well kept and very private, having its own beach was a big bonus with the family. Would recommend staying here

Weekend get away
We came to stay at Bolt Hole Cottage because we love Portland. We have stayed at several different homes in both Goblin Hill and San San in the past. The plus side of this is being right at the ocean side. The dock and the pool were awesome to utilize. I am a huge fan of the ocean, but not beach grass. The area you can swim in off the dock is small and the same with the beach area. It’s shallow and you are completely surrounded by beach grass. There were also people that invaded our private dock area and would not leave. The coast guard luckily showed up and made them leave, at which point they started yelling at us that we called the coast guard on them and basically that this wouldn’t be the end of this. Nothing did happen after that but they did sit outside the gate for several hours after they were kicked off the private property. Steve the gardener and Dwight the night security were wonderful and helpful. Donna the housemaid and cook was a little difficult to understand and honestly this worked much different than other places we stayed. We only rented the cottage as we only had two people in our group. The little two burner hotplate in the kitchen didn’t work very well. When we explained this to Donna she offered that we could use the main kitchen to cook. What we didn’t realize was that we would have to wait until she arrived at 9am to cook our breakfast. Being early risers at 5:30-6am that was very late for us to wait to eat and start our day. She also left by 6pm so we had to rush back to the house so that we could get our dinner cooked before she locked up and left for the day. It wasn’t great to have to schedule our day around her schedule. If you aren’t a fan of the heat at night beware. The ceiling fan in the bedroom only ran on low speed and didn’t create much cooling effect. The cottage is very hot and hard to sleep in at night. The king bed is two twin beds pushed together, very hard and uncomfortable. While we enjoyed the beautiful property itself our stay here just didn’t match up with the many other wonderful experiences we have had staying in the Portland Area. In the evening the sound of the ocean is amazing and the view second to none, but you also deal with the sound of the traffic 24-7. We were grateful for our time away and we actually got engaged on the little private beach on the property. I would recommend this property but would suggest just renting the main house as the cottage was under par.

Hi Stacey Thank you for your detailed evaluation and criticism of your stay at Cottage Bolthole. Thanks also for the 4 stars. We will do our best to improve the negative criticisms where possible. We are aware that the Cottage Bolthole does not offer the same comfort as the main house in all respects, but it is also cheaper to rent. I congratulate you on your engagement; it was a pleasure to have this in Bolthole. I wish you/you a good time. Best Daniel

An absolute delight
The location is perfect in Jamaica. Right by the ocean, in the middle of so many natural wonders. The staff taking care of the property and guests are 100% pure Jamaican kindness. The house has that Caribbean cachet that allows you to just fall back and be transported in another world. I never go back to a place twice but this will be the exception. The owner is a true gentleman. Heaven on earth!

Phänomenal
Das Cottage befindet sich auf dem Grundstück "Bolthole". Die Sicht aus dem Schlafzimmer und von der Terrasse auf das weite Meer ist einfach nur schön. Die Einrichtung ist geschmackvoll und man fühlt sich sofort wohl. Von den Mitarbeitenden wurden wir sehr verwöhnt. Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt und kommen wieder!

Ein Traum wird Wahr
Noch besser als beworben. Wir waren mit 11 Personen da. Die Räumlichkeiten sind sehr liebevoll und mit viel Platz eingerichtet. Das Personal ist super nett und kümmert sich um alles. Die Zwei Damen kümmern sich um das leibliche Wohl um die Wäsche und halten alles in Schuss. Der Gärtner verwöhnt einen mit frischen Kokosnüssen und der Nachtwächter Zieht mit einen durch das nächtliche Port Antonio. Einfach nur genial. Der Vermieter hat im Vorfeld schon alles wie gewünscht organisiert. Wir wurden vom Flughafen abgeholt und "zuhause" standen die Mietwagen schon bereit. Ausflüge wurden vorab vom Besitzer oder vor Ort von der Managerin organisiert. Danke es war mein schönster Urlaub den ich bis jetzt hatte.

Zuhause in Jamaica
Das Cottage ist wunderbar gelegen und man geniesst eine hohe Privatsphäre. Die luxuriöse Ausstattung und die geschmackvolle Einrichtung lassen keine Wünsche offen. Entspannende Stunden auf der schönen Veranda oder am eigenen kleine Sandstrand lassen die Hektik des Alltags schnell vergessen. Die Angestellten sind stets freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. In Bolthole fühlt man sich sofort zuhause. Wir genossen wunderbare und sehr erholsame Ferien, von denen wir viele schöne Erinnerungen mit nach Hause nahmen. Rilkes Zitat ‚Hiersein ist herrlich‘ muss seinen Ursprung in Bolthole haben!

FANTASTIC HIDDEN GEM
This is a beautiful compound hidden on the coast, very close to town. The decor is simple but truly elegant and very comfortable. The views are incredible and the staff top notch. Donna and Carine made us the most delicious meals, as good or better than we had anywhere on the island. There is a great night watchman, Errol (although we felt very safe it was nice to meet him and know he was there) and the gardeners maintain the beach and garden and perfectly. There is much to do in and around Port Antonio and the people in the area are friendly and happy to help. It is off the beaten path but worth the effort to get there.

Great getaway!
So grateful to Daniel and Erika for sharing their home with us-thank you! The staff was so very kind and attentive at every turn. The location of the cottage was perfect, the sounds of the waves so peaceful. The design and furnishing were so tranquil and simple and the cleanliness was excellent. Every detail has been caringly thought of and every need planned for. I strongly recommend without any hesitation. Enjoy !!!
