There was great anticipation as Trevor and his two faithful dogs guided us through the lush garden paradise of Citronella to the Round House, our cottage at the far end of the property. There was no disappointment either as we were led to a throw-back thatched hut perched at the top of cliffs overlooking the Western Caribbean. The water glittered... more

Shucks we lost a star on this one but we're still really excited about this 4 star review and as you can read from the review, this reviewer had a great time here at Citronella. Almost all the comments from this review are positive and the reviewer also brings to attention that this cottage (the Round House) has a ladder...

Having read the other reviews, we were expecting a lovely place, but it was much more than we expected. I am so glad we found Citronella, I would not have enjoyed Negril half as much if we had stayed on the beach. We stayed in the A frame cottage for 14 nights, and it was better equipped than I expected... more

Hi there this surfdust, manager of all things web for Citronella. We’re very pleased to have received yet another 5 star review. This story brings back memories because I spent my very first night ever in Jamaica in this same cottage (the A frame). It was the first basic shaping of my love for Jamaica and I returned to Citronella...

I spent a “year of relaxation, serenity, and calmness” … in ‘one-week’ … perched 50 feet above the aqua colored Caribbean Sea lounging in the most quaint “Cave House” in awe of being surrounded by sounds of water splashing on the rocks below and spectacular sunset views above. What a view lounging from my hammock on the porch or sitting... more

Hi there this is surfdust again, manager of all things web for Citro. We're ever so pleased to have received this lovely and very descriptive review. The "Cave House" is also my personal favorite on the property because of its spacious room and the cave beneath the house. I have spent some time there with my love as well. I...

We came down last November, prepared for a nice long stay on the cliffs but the hurricane forced us to the beach instead. Needless to say, it wasn't what we expected. This trip we were very fortunate to land at Citronella, the round house and were totally blow away!! Fantastic view from the front of a very cozy cottage that... more

Once again we're thrilled that we exceeded this reviewer's expectations. Thanks again to this reviewer and to the many other wonderful guests that have contributed to TripAdvisor. I would also like to point out that this is the second 5 star review in a row on the Round House. The Round House is our most popular house. Situated at one...

After traveling to various resorts in the D.R., the Caymans, the Bahamas, & Belize we have found our favorite place so far. We stayed in the Round House from April 9-16 and we were definitely not ready to leave when our time was up. From the time we walked through the gate we felt toatally relaxed. No phones, no TV,... more

Hi there this is Dusty (surfdust) manager of all things web for Citronella. On behalf of all the staff here at Citronella, we're thrilled this reviewer enjoyed our little piece of paradise. The Round House is also one of my favorites and the sea-grotto shower is a special treat just like we advertise. I'm thrilled this reviewer enjoyed it so...

I've been to alot of places in my life and I'm going to have a hard time going anywhere else period. Unbelievable. Incredibly private and secluded but close nighlife, restaurants, markets. We normally go on one or two trips a year but I'll be surprised if I'm not back at Citronella within a month or two. more

Our family of 5 (two parents, two teens and grandmother) has just returned from a magical week in the Cove House at Citronella. We cannot imagine a more beautiful setting for rest and quality family time. The Caribbean Sea gently wakes you in the morning, cools you in the hot lazy afternoon, mesmerizes you at sunset and rocks you to... more

Hi and thank you so much for your nice review. This is Dusty and I am the webmaster for Citro and for Cathy and Jon. Cathy wrote me and asked me to send you a personal thank you from her as well. I often visit Jamaica myself and the Cove House and the Cave House are my favorites and I...

My husband and I decided to go to Jamaica for our Honeymoon (both had never been) we spent our first week at Point Village that turned out to be better than expected and our second week at Citronella in the A Frame. At this point we had our socks completely blown off. It was just as we had imagined and... more

I returned from a one week stay at this lovely property two weeks ago and have already made reservations for next year. This is a very special place. There are no air conditioners, tvs or phones. There are comfortable beds in large rooms that look out on pale blue waters where I scanned the waters every day for the dolphins... more

Stayed at Citronella with a friend over Christmas for 3 nights. My 2nd time to Negril, and the property was not my desired choice, but places were very booked up. I was really pleasantly surprised by the location, gardens and overall style of the place. It is on the cliffs, just past (horrible) Rick's Cafe, and before you get to... more
