Description

From Villas by Linda Smith, here is a vacation you won't want to miss.  Imagine your own private bedroom villa, Serenity on the Beach, complete with cook, laundress, chambermaid and butler.  Travel & Leisure has dubbed this stretch of Jamaica's lush north coast "the Jamaican Riviera."  Located on the sea 8 miles west of Montego Bay, Serenity on the Beach is a beloved private staffed villa.  Each bedroom opens to a sitting area for private afternoon naps or all-day gazing at the changing light on the Caribbean sea - practically at your doorstep.  The four bedrooms and living room are connected by a long furnished marble verandah.  The verandah adjoins the pool terrace, where cool drinks and evening hors d'oeuvres are served under the palm trees.  Most weeks, a special treat is dinner on the beach.  Your day starts as coffee trays are silently presented outside each bedroom door while guests are still asleep.  A full breakfast is served when all guests are ready.  For lunch and dinner, your cook will prepare her own mix of Jamaican specialties - or traditional American fare per your request.  The Serenity cook is superb. Serenity guests have memberships at posh nearby Round Hill and the Tryall Club (two of the finest private resorts in the Caribbean) for golf and tennis, fitness clubs, bars and restaurants, kids clubs, watersports, beach parties and managers' cocktail parties. Children are welcome!  Serenity specializes in three-generation family vacations.  It is designed for guests from infant to octogenarian. Additional amenities include:  private pool, high speed internet and WiFi, cable televisions, bathrobes, hair dryers, full gym nearby, complimentary crib and high chair, kayaks, snorkel gear and more. You can find out more about the villa at:  jamaicavillas.com/villa-listing/serenity-on-the-beach.    See restrictions for additional fees.
