Exclusive Oceanfront in charming resort town Jamaica’s picturesque North Coast

Gorgeous villa - beautiful property
I loved loved loved my stay at Brown Shuggah! This was my return to this villa and it was more delightful this time than previous! The villa itself is not only well maintained but has an element of uniqueness in design that is very striking and pleasing. From the natural water elements, unique pieces of furniture and art work, to the curvatures of the walls and the unique feel of each room, being here brings about a sense of peace and happiness. The owner is very friendly and nice - reaching out prior to answer any/all questions to help ensure that our visit would be a good one. The staff (Mario, Pepe, Chef Wong and others) were very fun to interact with as they were positive, attentive, respectful and polite in all interactions with us. I simply loved everything about my stay and hope to be able to return again soon!!

Glad to be home!
We were a party of 12, consisting of 6 adults, 2 teenagers, and 4 younger children. The accommodations were just what we were expecting, the little ones had a space to call their own, the teenagers, well they’re teens, and the adults had multiple areas to congregate and chat it up. The staff is spectacular! Chef was able to deliver on my every request, Sophia made lite work of keeping things fresh and tidy, considering the kids were so busy. Sean is personable and welcoming, my 2 year old just loved him. He made sure we were all taken care of, even if it meant snagging me some Black Mint on a ditch request. Pepe rounded it all out, he made sure the property was secured and well manicured. Pepe is a professional swimmer, Aqua Man would be jealous of that man’s water skills. He took my family snorkeling one afternoon and helped to curate an experience my kids will never forget. I loved the stay, it was like visiting family, we truly felt at home back a Yaad!

Wow!
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Brown Shuggah Villa for a dear friend's birthday celebration, and it was an experience beyond words. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of magic, tenderness, love, joy, peace, happiness, and excitement that lasted throughout our stay. I had planned the birthday trip, and the team at the villa went above and beyond to help with the birthday decor and celebration plans for the week. Pepe, Sharndee, Sophia, and Chef Juan brought an unparalleled level of energy, attentiveness, and genuine care for our comfort. They take immense pride in their care for the guests, ensuring that every detail was meticulously attended to. The food and setting were absolutely beautiful, adding to the overall charm of our stay. The villa itself is a stunning sanctuary, but it is the people who make it truly exceptional. Their dedication to creating a perfect experience for each guest is evident in every interaction and service provided. This stay was more than a getaway; it was a memorable journey filled with warmth and joy, made extraordinary by the wonderful team at Brown Sugar Villa. I cannot recommend this villa enough. If you're looking for a place that combines beauty, comfort, and exceptional hospitality, Brown Sugar Villa is the perfect choice.

Absolutely Amazing
Our group of 5 had an absolutely amazing time at Brown Shuggah. The property managers, Anna and Daniel, were kind and responsive, and the staff- Sean, Sophia, Chef Wong, Pepe, and Bryan -were the best! So sweet, attentive, knowledgeable, helpful and a joy to be around. Our driver, Michael, who we organized through the property, was also great, as he made sure we got to and from the house safely and was always on time. On to the house... it's stunning. The views are beautiful, the accommodations are luxurious and comfortable, and the swimming cove, while without a beach, is still awesome. 5 stars all around- I can't wait to get back!

The decision to NOT stay at the resort & book "Brown Shuggah" Villa was THE ABSOLUTE BEST decision ever!!! From the moment we arrived until the very moment we left, everything & everyone was unbelievably over-the-top, incredibly AMAZING!! The staff was so incredibly kind & accommodating! We didn't arrive until after 10pm, we were met outside by these amazing folks who greeted us with big smiles & peppermint scented towels to freshen up!!! They started taking care of us & everything else right away! The Villa is INCREDIBLE!!! The pictures DON'T come close to what we walked into!! It is BEAUTIFULLY STUNNING w/so much Jamaica character about it! Very CLEAN, very well furnished & organized! The VIEW! OH MY GOD!! The views from the house-BREATHTAKING!!! The Ocean is literally just beyond the fence! The back patio area & the yard space is PERFECT!! We spent the majority of our time out there, until 4 am most times enjoying the sounds of the Ocean & comfort of the patio furnishing, the pool was fantastic! Every single bedroom & bathroom was amazing, especially the MSTR BEDROOM! You have to see it to believe it! To wake up with a direct view & sound of the Ocean was like waking up in paradise each day! We requested traditional Jamaican meals. Chef Wong was top tier! EVERY meal was DELICIOUS!! The house was totally cleaned every day! Shaun totally took care of us-he is AMAZING! I think the Villa was the BEST part of our vacation! Brown Shuggah, we will be back!! TEN STARS!!!

Can’t express enough how great the villa was. Beautifully layed out and appointed. The staff was absolutely wonderful and so attentive. The food was outstanding. We did chef’s choice for the week and it was not to disappoint. So fun going to the private children’s beach, and the cliff jumping. Loved the dogs. Everything was perfect from beginning to end.

Brown Shuggah Villa is the ultimate in a vacation home rental. The property is stunning with beautiful vistas of the ocean. The house had all the amenities one could hope for. The staff was truly amazing and make it a truly relaxing, memorable experience. It was convenient to Ocho Rios, but not too close. I've rented several different properties around Florida and the Caribbean through VRBO, and this one truly stands out.

5 star recommendation!
We had an amazing time. The pictures really don't do this property justice. It was larger and more beautiful than we expected. We suggested a video walkthrough tour with the housekeeper would be a great addition to the property profile. The staff were amazing and accommodating from arranging trips, great meals, swimming/cliff jumping/exploring the bat cave, to playing Ludo with the our kids. We made so many great memories and our kids will ALWAYS remember this trip to Jamaica. The host was also very responsive and accommodating with last-minute needs and revisions we had for our trip.

A beautiful villa with a very kind staff
We recently stayed at Brown Shuggah Villa (4 adults and 3 young children, ages 2, 2, and 4). This vacation truly exceeded every expectation we had. The house was very clean, large, and exactly as seen in the photos. Our children specifically liked the pool - my son learned to swim! - and the private beach cove. There are ample pool toys and floats. A short 2 minutes walk away is a very shallow bat cave which us adults loved. To the staff: Sharndee, Pepe, Bryan, Sophia and Chef Wong - thank you for caring not only for us but for our kids. Your attention to detail and kindness to our children was truly above and beyond. We will 100% back. Again, thank you!

My 50th Birthday at Brown Shuggah Villa.
Awesomeness!!! My family and I celebrated my 50th birthday at Brown Shuggah. I enjoyed every minute of my stay, the staff sealed the deal. Each serving of meal was well presented with the most colorful and decorative tablecloths and mats, I found this very impressive. Big up to Shawn the butler who was very attentive to all our needs, Marlon the chef who prepared the most delicious meals in speedy time. Sophia, who kept our rooms and bathrooms clean and refreshed. The gardeners who kept the grounds immaculate by pruning, sweeping and watering every morning. Lola, such a friendly and obedient dog who guided us to the cove at times. Everyone was sad to leave, but our next vacation destination will definitely be Brown Shuggah. Antoinette

Amazing Vacation
We had such an amazing time at Brown Shuggah Villa! We had 3 generations together (including young kids) to celebrate a few milestone birthdays and anniversaries and it was absolutely wonderful! The house was beautiful and spacious, the grounds and view spectacular, and the cove was an absolutely perfect play area for our young kids. But above all of this, it was the staff that truly made our stay beyond what we could have anticipated. Marlon the chef made every meal incredibly delicious and we really enjoyed trying local Jamaican dishes. He made a special birthday dessert for my mother in law and having the food taken care of all week was an amazing treat for us. Sean (Sharndee) the butler was so kind and attentive and made us feel so well taken care of. Sophia the housekeeper kept our rooms and space tidy and clean. Foxy and Bryan kept the grounds looking great, and Foxy even took us out to cliff jump, and this was just an added perk of the location of this house. Even Lola the dog was wonderful to have around. We can't say enough good things about this place and would return in a heartbeat. Thanks Brown Shuggah for a fantastic vacation!

Our experience at Brown Shuggah Villa was beyond fantastic! The home is one of the most unique and beautiful homes we have ever stayed in, incredibly clean and comfortable, and the staff just takes it over the top! Not only is the location idyllic, including the cove and the cliffs out back for jumping, but the staff simply makes this place perfect. Chef Marlon, Butler Shawn, housekeeper Sophia, groundskeepers Foxy and Brian were some of the most wonderful people, and the best meals we’ve ever had!
