I stayed in the small cabin at Patiently Waiting in Drax Hall, and while the property itself is beautiful and had everything I needed pool, hottub, security. What truly made the experience unforgettable was Chris, the property manager.From the moment I arrived, Chris went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. He was incredibly accommodating, always available to answer questions, and quick to provide anything I needed during my stay. His warmth and genuine hospitality made me feel completely at home — it’s rare to find someone who cares so much about making a guest’s experience special.The cabin itself was cozy, well-equipped, and perfect for a relaxing stay, but Chris is the reason I’ll remember this trip so fondly. He turned a great stay into an amazing one. If you’re looking for not just a beautiful property but also the kind of care and attention that makes you feel truly valued, this is the place.

A Wonderful Stay in a Charming CottageMy daughter and I had a lovely stay in this charming cottage, set in beautifully maintained grounds. The peaceful surroundings, combined with access to a swimming pool, made it a perfect getaway. The beach is just a 5-minute walk away, and Ocho Rios town is only a 7-minute drive—very convenient for exploring the area. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely return the next time we’re in Ocho Rios.

Enjoyable short break

We stayed just for 2 nights in the cottage. Accommodation was clean and tidy and the overall property is generally well kept even as some parts show that the villa is older in character. The villa is very secure, being on the private Mammee Bay Estate with controlled access road and also having secure locked gate at the entrance to the villa. Guests are provided an access card to enter nearby Bamboo Blu private beach, which also has a bar & restaurant. The food there is ok but overpriced for what it is. There are other accommodations at the same villa depending on size of your group. Although we were the only ones there when we stayed ( and so had use of the pool to ourselves!) if other parts of the villa are rented out you'd obviously be sharing the place with other guests - in terms of relaxing by the pool then in this situation, there are limited loungers/chairs. There are 2 hot tub jacuzzis on site though we didn't use them and they would have needed some time to warm up, even though Chris the property manager was more than willing to get one ready for us. Chris stays on site too so if you do have any issues he's usually available to help. Finally, it has to be said that this villa is very good value for money and is pitched just about right in terms of cost and what you get for it.

Private and quiet! Exactly what I was looking for.

Great place short walk to beach. You had to share the beach with the big resort guests spilling over from next door but there was always a lounger or spot available. Restraunt in beach had great food. Just a nice spot for some quiet relaxation.

Clean Quaint Property

Overall we had a good stay with small kitchenette and hot water. AC and fan. Wifi and tv for use. Safe gated area with lots of parking. Only complaints we had personally were cobwebs in corners, check in process is a little tricky with location, directions, and property manager required us to contact the local representative to tell him we booked the place. Location of property is in nature so there are lots of loud bugs during the night just FYI. Overall a decent stay for 1 night.

We found the property to be nice and clean. The only thing we didn't like is having to get in and out of the vehicle to open the gate. The gate is locked at all times with a padlock. We believe it's time to upgrade the locking system. Other than that we we're quite happy. Thank you Chris for your hospitality.

We had a wonderful wonderful time at Patiently Waiting! Chris, the host, was super helpful and was five star in every way! The house was clean but could have been better stocked. If u want to do cooking or eating in, it is a little challenging. We had to buy plastic spoons, coffee filters, paper towels and extra toilet paper. loved the property location. Walked to the beach often and thoroughly enjoyed the oceanfront restaurant there! Pool was super clean and beautiful 😍

The property was a bit hard to find as it doesn’t seem to be locateable by Applemaps, and Expedia did not provide the name of the cottage, which, if it did, is locateable on Apple Maps. Our tour company messed up but Chris, the groundskeeper, came to our rescue by reaching out to his connection, who volunteered to be our driver on his day off. WOW. What luck. Room was a good size, comfortable, and outfitted with everything we needed. Grounds were quiet and well kept. Only other drawback is the keyed gate that u have to get out of your car to unlock and open every time u enter/leave the property; at the same time this is an added safety feature. Would definitely stay there again as it was convenient to the main Highway and restaurants, shopping, and activities/attractions
