Rio Chico is truly one of the most unique and beautiful properties in Jamaica. Located just outside of Ocho Rios, and set within tranquil tropical gardens with exotic flowers and spectacular waterfalls and overlooking the blue Caribbean. The 14-acre estate with 2000 feet of shoreline, private beach, tasteful furnishings and appointments, and impeccable service, represents the finest in villa living. The estate consists of a magnificent Georgian architecture 6-bedroom main house and a 2-bedroom Guest Cottage, both furnished in impeccable style and taste. The villa was originally built in 1898 and just underwent a lavish renovation by one of the world's most brilliant hoteliers.

To enter the gates of Rio Chico is to step into a different world: a world of magical beauty secluded from the cares of the outside world, yet close to many of Jamaica's most popular attractions. The world-famous Dunn's River Falls and Fern Gully offer two of Jamaica's scenic attractions, and one of the island's newest and most popular attractions, swimming with the dolphins at Dolphin Cove are all only minutes away. Even without leaving the confines of Rio Chico, you can enjoy the essence of Jamaica: stroll the gardens and absorb the tropical ambience; pause and listen to the sounds of the sparkling stream that meets the Caribbean with your own private waterfall.

Whether dining on the spectacular verandah overlooking the Caribbean, the formal dining room, or pool-side, the attentive and professional Rio Chico staff will provide you with personalized service to meet your every need. Your experienced villa chefs will provide you with a wide array of meals to suite the most discriminating palates.

The spacious and elegant living areas of Rio Chico are built around an indoor rock garden: this interior garden forms a lovely backdrop for romantic candlelight dinners. French doors open out from the dining room and adjacent family room/bar to the downstairs verandah and large (20 x 38 foot) pool overlooking the sea. Enjoy your choice of two fresh-water swimming pools or the secluded, white-sand beach for sunning or swimming in the sea.

Six bedrooms are in the Main House. The two-bedroom Guest Cottage is a short walk across the lawn, overlooking the sea. All bedrooms are fully air-conditioned with private en-suite bathrooms. See bedroom photos.
