Roaring Pavilion Villa is perhaps the most luxurious and beautiful villa in Jamaica. Roaring Pavilion is located
on a private beachfront estate where the Roaring River meets the Caribbean
Sea just a few minutes outside of
Ocho Rios. The villa’s beach is known as James Bond Beach, the
location for the classic scene from Dr. No where Sean Connery greeted
Ursula Andress emerging from the surf.
The 8,000 square-foot property is lavishly appointed and offers a dedicated staff catering to every guest’s need. It has been deemed one of the most beautiful and luxurious villa in the Caribbean, and has played to host to many international celebrities from the worlds of film, television and music. Highlights of the property are many, the focal point being the open air pavilion, reached via an interior walkway over a meandering reflecting pool. The Pavilion offers a dramatic ocean view with steps leading to the villa’s lagoon-style swimming pool. The layout offers a total of three living areas including a den/entertainment room furnished with a large screen cable television, Apple computer with wireless internet, and an extensive collection of books, videos, and games. Four distinctive master suites are available, each with its own en suite marble bath.
Roaring Pavilion Villa and Spa has been built and furnished with an international flair. Interior walls are of Barbadian coral stone and floors of French terra-cotta tile. Furnishings, art work, fabrics and other design elements collected from around the world are located throughout the property. The living room features designer furnishings and an array of custom fabrics are utilized in upholstery, draperies and other household furnishings.
Roaring Pavilion's focus on wellness has led to a complete overhaul of its workout and spa facilities and services. The fitness center features cardio equipment and weight-training machines. The private riverside spa has an extensive treatment menu, making use of local botanicals grown nearby and on the villa grounds. The spa and gym includes an air-conditioned workout studio by
the river with state of the art cardio and weight training equipment,
a terrace for yoga and a fabulous indoor treatment room for the
spa. Part of the addition to the spa is a steam room, rain shower
and a luxurious nine-jet hydrotherapy unit to pamper you. All spa services are at additional cost.
Roaring Pavilion boasts a full-time staff. The staff provides every service imaginable, from individual culinary requests to the meticulous attentions of a butler, to complimentary, professionally managed laundry. Of particular note is the villa chef, whose culinary delights include intricate continental dishes and dazzling local specialties with the freshest market ingredients. Twenty-four hour room service is also available at this one of a kind retreat. All service is provided seamlessly and discreetly, with guests only charged for their actual consumption of food and beverage at local, unmarked prices. They are not bound to any set plan or menu, but can enjoy themselves as their preferences and lifestyle dictate.
Roaring Pavilion Villa and Spa’s bedroom suites have each been given their own unique personality and charm. They feature air conditioning, a sound system, ceiling fans, three-sheeted linen bedding, Italian marble bathrooms with oversized tubs or shower, Turkish Roaring Pavilion Villa and Spa robes and a line of imported bath products.

Private Beach:
Jamaica is world-renowned for its glorious beaches, and that glory is all yours

enjoying a variety of water sports, or simply lying on the beach as you are
caressed by a gentle sea breeze. Food and drinks are always available, and
if you wish, a full barbecue lunch can be served right on the beach. For a
