Ashton Great House in St Elizabeth, Jamaica
Everyone loves a Great House with a cool history behind it. Unfortunately it’s nearly impossible to find information on this one since it closed to the public within the last two years, and since closing it appears its website has been taken down. Not even the Jamaica Tourist Board website has any worthwhile information.

Rocklands Bird Sanctuary
Not exactly somewhere over a rainbow but somewhere high up in the hills behind Montego Bay, near Anchovy, there’s a beautiful hidden treasure that a blog post can’t do any justice to. I’m not a bird watcher at all but I heard about this place years ago and even drove past the sign for…

Club Caribbean Court – Salem, St Ann
A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of being invited to check out a couple of great vacation apartments in a prime spot on Jamaica’s north coast. I stayed in one of the apartments and was able to walk through the other one for the purpose of this review. Both of these apartments…

I Didn’t Make It To Alligator Pond
But I spent two days at the “Riva” I must thank my lucky stars that I meet the coolest people or I would never discover half the magic I find in Jamaica. I don’t usually start backwards and blog about the end of my trips first but I spent my final two days on…
