Would recommend again and again! One garden/bird lover to another!
Jul 2021 • Couples
Amazing experience! Barney and Damien are knowledgeable and pleasant. Remember that this is nature and you must be patient!!! You WILL see hummingbirds. They provide sugar feeders to encourage the birds to eat from you. It is still nature and weather, heat, time of day all play a part. Once you arrive and receive your “how to” you will be free to explore on your own. Don’t forget the amazingly beautiful flowers! Sit in the garden and enjoy an delicious iced coffee while the birds hum all around you! I wouldn’t recommend this for small children—only those who can sit quiet and patient 😀. Barney was so nice-he took us to a local market on our way back so we could purchase bug spray and come which saved us a ton of money! Enjoy this gem in Jamaica!!

A little slice of hummingbird heaven!
Jul 2021 • Family
Hummingbirds always bring me joy, and to see them up close at Barney’s was a little slice of heaven this morning! Barney and Damian were super friendly, knowledgeable and hospitable. We learned more about plants we usually have as house plants at home, and some we’ve never seen before. The birds are all wild, but they are really curious and willing to come close. We were able to feed a few with a small bottle by hand. Barney’s is an intimate little garden, but perfectly sized for visiting and spotting the fast little hummers. Do yourself a favor and make a trip to this hummingbird sanctuary. You won’t regret it!!

Fun Outing at Barney's
Jun 2021
Mu wife and I were staying at The Cliff Hotel nearby and thought we'd check out Barney's and we're glad we did. What a magical little garden and hummingbird sanctuary Barney has created . . . very cool. Barney and Damian we friendly and knowledgeable and the hummingbird action was good the day we went. My wife was able to "hand-feed" several of the hummingbirds and they were all beautiful. It was a fun way to kill some time "off-resort" and we will probably do it again on our next visit to Negril.

Saw the Streamertail !
May 2021 • Friends
Such a special place.
Barney came and picked us up at our hotel, The Rockhouse, which was only about a 7-minute drive.
Barney's assistant, Damian walked us around and talked about all the different flowers and birds and gave us small bottles filled with hummingbird juice in hopes to attract the most beautiful hummingbird of all, the Red-Billed Streamertail.

Within minutes we saw this gorgeous bird and we were lucky enough to have him feed from the small bottle that Damien gave us! So special!

Go early in the morning as that's when the Streamertails are hungry.
Barney suggested he pick us up at 9am.
If you're a hummer fan, you'll love Barney's.

Beautiful, got to feed hummingbirds!
Apr 2021
I was told hummingbirds aren't a common sight anymore in Jamaica, so I felt special being able to hang out with them at this garden. Upon arrival you're given a small airplane liquor bottle filled with sugar water, and you can try to coax the hummingbirds to feed from your bottle. Very special. We got there as soon as they opened and we had the place to ourselves.

Its very small and a bit expensive to enter ($20 USD per person), but it was worth it for us, as there was not many garden attractions around negril.

There are no small children allowed in the garden.

Go for lunch afterward at Just Natural, you won't regret it!

Barney is a delightful host. His garden is beyond beautiful, and he showed us the perfect technique to get the birds to drink the sugar water...so much fun to feed them!

Amazing gardens
Mar 2021 • Couples
The owner, Barney, and his helper (forgot his name) are so friendly and knowledgeable about the different plants and hummingbirds. They point out the flowers that attract hummingbirds and give you a bottle of sugar water to feed the hummingbirds. I really didn't think a hummingbird would feed from my bottle, but one did a few times and it made my day.

A beautiful and magical place!
Apr 2020
We celebrated our 30th anniversary in Negril and went to Barney's before enjoying a beautiful dinner at Xtabi. While I didn't have luck "hand feeding" the hummingbirds (it seems I scare them away when they get close) but Barney's helper did everything he could to bring them around. He turned on a sprinkler in the middle of the garden and all of the hummingbirds came to bathe - it was FANTASTIC to watch them! The flowers in the garden were also stunning. We definitely need to go back to experience it again! We went in December 2019 but that wasn't an option to select to the "when did you go?" question below.

Magical
Jan 2021
This was a truly magical place. The hummingbirds will fly right up to you and drink from the little bottles of nectar you carry around. We saw 4 different types of hummingbirds as well as other beautiful Caribbean birds like orioles. The gardens are intimate but expertly arranges. I highly recommend it!
