Greatview

 

 

 

Greatview is one of the newest and most luxurious of the Montego Bay, Spring Farm villas overlooking the Half Moon Bay golf course and the Caribbean Sea. It is immediately apparent why the owners chose this name for their villa. From the colorful blue hues of the Caribbean Sea to the green mountains beyond, the scenery is truly spectacular. The interior spaces are a perfect combination of taste, beauty and comfort. French limestone and exotic bamboo floors, Barbados coral stone walls, Venetian glazed walls are all part of the exceptional attention to detail. The furnishings are an exquisite combination of Asian antique and tropical colonial. The living areas have been thoughtfully designed to meet the varying needs of your party - quiet private spaces with both indoor and outdoor group settings. Enjoy outdoor meals in the wonderful Jamaican climate, or for more formal occasions the elegant dining room will provide the perfect setting.

Bedroom Configuration:

Greatview has 5 uniquely furnished air conditioned bedrooms all with large private bathrooms.

Main House

-Bedroom 1 The Plantation Green Room (750 sq ft. main floor)  - is decorated in authentic Jamaican plantation-style, with four-poster king bed, spacious sitting area with chaise lounge, L-shaped sofa and built-in entertainment unit and bar refrigerator. The large bathroom features a 20 inch TV, desk, dressing table, sitting area, Jacuzzi tub, an indoor walk-in steam shower and outdoor shower among flowering vines. Enjoy the spectacular view of the Caribbean from your private balcony.
-Bedroom 2 The Orchid Room (522 sq ft. main floor) - has two queen-size rattan beds, a 19th century walnut armoire and an English faux-bamboo antique desk. The large bathroom with its Jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower and dressing area has direct access to the spa and the outdoor Swedish and drench showers. The orchid theme is reflected in the fabrics in the room, as well as the vases of freshly cut orchids.
-Bedroom 3 The Burmese Room (400 sq ft. split level) - is named for its Burmese and Chinese furnishings highlighted by a queen-size four-poster bed, an exquisite red lacquered desk and antique Chinese wedding chair, and handsomely complemented by the owner's collection of Asian art. The magnificent wrap-around balcony offers breathtaking views of both sea and mountains: a small patio also offers views of the mountains beyond. The deep soaking tub in the bathroom is the perfect place to relax and take in the scenery.
-Bedroom 4 The Frog Room (280 sq ft. upper level) - receives its name from the whimsical use of the frog theme in the decorations and appointments. In addition to the cheerful frog-theme fabrics decorating the bedspreads and pillows, the loveable frogs find their way to furniture hardware in the room. The room has a king-size bed, balcony, and en-suite bathroom with a deep soaking tub/shower combination, and is done in cheerful greens, oranges and yellows.
-Bedroom 5 The Palm Room (280 sq ft. upper level) - next to the Frog Room, and a mirror image of it, carries the palm theme in its fabrics and the hand-painted armoire and dressers.
