We loved this place! We stayed in a villa that almost hung over a cliff, so the view was amazing. The hotel grounds are beautiful! Lots of space between villas, tons of plant life, and a great beach. The rooms could all use a little updating, but it really didn't make us enjoy our stay any less. The entire staff... more

I have no idea what the above reviewers see in Frenchman's cove - it is not "retro" but rather, has not been cleaned or updated since 1955! The villa was dirty, the staff unfriendly. $20 was stolen out of my wallet -- they encourage you to put valuables in the managers safe since there is no safe in villas. This... more

Frenchman's Cove was great! We stumbled upon it on a road trip around the eastern half of Jamaica and feel lucky to have been there. We thought it would be out of our price range, but it was actually a bargain for what was provided and the ambiance. The 3 bedroom villa had fabulous views, a comfortable retro feel, and... more

A nice place to relax. The cabins are spacious, tucked away and quite nice. The best feature is the beach, a nice cove with a river flowing into it.

We spent a week in March 2004 at fabulous Frenchman's Cove in a 2 bedroom villa with our kids (next to the villa that Liz Taylor & Richard Burton honeymooned in). What a quiet and beautiful place! We were never hassled by vendors and the service was great. No phones or TVs but lots of relaxation. Be prepared for the... more

Outstanding service and staff. You must share a toast with Mr. Lawrence, the manager of this paradise resort. Have Mr. Lawrence enlighten you regarding the history of Frenchman's Cove. Frenchman's has the most beautiful beach in the world. Each villa is surrounded by lush rain forest. You have no idea there are any other villas present. With breakfast, succulent guava,... more
