Enchanting! This is a beautiful unique property with stunning views and magnificent gardens - a real labour of Love. Staff are delightful, welcoming & helpful, the food fresh & delicious - we were extremely well looked after! Like other hotels & restaurants outside of Montego Bay & Kingston, advance booking is required for meal service but this was no bother to us. The villas are comfortable, well designed & built, authentic to their era which only adds to the charming, mystical atmosphere. A true slice of Heaven for nature lovers like us! Our mistake was to only book a few nights .... we will return every year if we can.

The staff was exceptional , the food was excellent. What we were not pleased with was when you arrive late there should be a welcome basket in the kitchen even refreshments when you arrive , it is a long journey from the airport you cannot even have a cup of tea. I went to the front one night for a little sugar nothing was accessible . Away from that we loved it.

Beautiful Views, Broken Amenities!

I’ve visited Goblin Hill years ago and have such fond memories of the experience, so I was excited to return. The property still has its signature charm and breathtaking views, which are truly one of a kind. However, I was a bit disappointed this time around, especially considering the price we paid. Unfortunately, several key amenities were not in working order. The pool was closed, and the tennis courts seemed to be in disrepair. It would have been helpful to know this in advance, as it did affect the overall experience. Given that Goblin Hill is not a beachfront property, these amenities are important to guests and should be maintained—or the pricing adjusted accordingly while they’re unavailable. The grounds and buildings retain their vintage character, which I really appreciate, but some basic upkeep is definitely needed. The balcony awnings could use cleaning, and a fresh coat of paint here and there would go a long way in keeping the place feeling inviting and well-cared for. That said, the staff made all the difference. • Pamela, our cook, was outstanding—so kind, polite, and her cooking was amazing. • Devon, the security guard, went above and beyond, even helping us get fresh snapper for dinner. • AJ at the front desk was also very professional and welcoming. Overall, the warm hospitality and spectacular views are the highlights of Goblin Hill. Hiwever, a heads-up or price adjustment would go a long way in managing expectations.

Please don’t change a thing…..

Goblin Hill is a time capsule in the best way possible. We’ve stayed here 4 or 5 times over the past 20yrs. It’s not a “vibe” but rather the real thing. It is and has always been a lush, low key, preserved tranquil oasis that can’t be matched.

This is a unique and beautiful paradise. The price is very reasonable for an entire villa. The AC is only upstairs but that didn’t bother us bc we were only in the villa to sleep. We cherished our time here and will be back.

It is with mixed feelings that we write this review. It was a property we were so looking forward to spending our 14 nights of pure relaxation. We booked a superior two bedroomed ocean view villa, which actually appears to be their only 2 bedroomed villa of this kind on the property with this panoramic view! Sadly the reality of this accommodation was sky light seeping through the roofs of the bedrooms upstairs, which in heavy rainfall drips of water came through. There was no Internet reaching this ( there best villa) until the 5th day of our stay. Pretty much every other day there was a water problem, no water to shower or flush the toilet, on some occasions when there was water it was cold. The pool area needed a good jet wash and the hammocks and sun beds needed to be cleaned. We could not use the pool area for these very reasons. A couple of electric outages, though these were short lived. The San San beach that is advertised open at weekends only, is a bit of a walk down the back of the property , out onto the street across a major road and a further walk, eventually on arrival you will find it is not worth the journey. Goblin Hill’s garden areas were well kept, and if you pay for an ocean view villa, it will keep you sane as you battle through everything else this property lacks. Despite the lovely staff trying to remedy these issues mentioned, sadly Goblin Hill does not a appear to be a property that is loved by its owners, this is plain to see. We don’t recommend!
