Hotels near Barney's Botanical Garden Jamaica

"Tensing Pen has beautifully recovered from Hurricane Melissa. The photos truly don’t do it justice. The grounds are stunning, perched right at the edge of the cliffs with breathtaking views of the sea. A continental breakfast is included and more than enough to start your day satisfied. You can swim and snorkel right off the property, which was one of the highlights of our stay. Paul, the lifeguard, guided us while snorkeling and pointed out incredible marine life. I wish I had an underwater camera — it was majestic. He even dove deep to retrieve sea creatures from the ocean floor to show us up close. We saw a giant manta ray, tiger fish, and blowfish. Absolutely unforgettable. The on-site restaurant is one of the most popular in the area, so reservations are highly recommended. The sunsets are spectacular, the atmosphere serene and relaxing, and the staff warm, friendly, and courteous. I would definitely return. "

"The resort and the views are absolutely beautiful everywhere you looked. "

"The gardens around the pool are lovely."

"We had a lovely weekend at Bak A Yaad. The grounds are beautiful. It was easy to upgrade our reservation to a cabin with more amenities when we checked in. The cabin and common areas were tidy and well-kept. Walking distance to great restaurants and small grocery. "

"This is our second visit back and it was just as wonderful as the first! Samara treats you like family from when you first enter until you leave. Everyone always has a smile and is happy to help you in anyway. We stayed in the garden bungalows again and we just love how spacious and beautiful they are. We can’t wait to come back and visit again soon. We miss you all already. "

"Imagine staying in a tree house (not actually) on a beautiful cliff overlooking the blue ocean surrounded by friendly people and that’s the best I can describe it. We’ve been multiple times and loved each time. All the guests seem to love it too. It’s a relatively quiet chill place. Many catamaran excursions go to the area off the coast because it’s so amazing. Getting there is interesting as it’s in the West End of Negril about 1.5-2hr from MBJ airport. We’ve taken the small plane, car transfer, and rental and each has pros/cons. The plane is best and most expensive ~350-400/pp, the private transfer is ~200-500/couple, the rental car is ~70/day but the most stressful for some not used to dodging potholes, people, animals, bikes, cars all sharing your lane while driving on the British side of the road. Beware many credit card rental car insurances exclude Jamaica."

"Breakfast was great and the coffee was hot and strong. Good value and close to some of the best restaurants in Negril. "
