Great value for money, the hotel is in a beautiful location high above the Rio Grande with fantastic views from the breakfast area over the river valley and rainforest each morning. And a delicious breakfast too, especially the Blue Mountain coffee. Food is expensive by Jamaican standards, but superbly cooked, the shrimp and lobster especially. The pool is small but... more

Although we only had a few days and although it was the beginning of the rainy (aka hurricane) season, it was exciting to experience the heavy rains followed almost immediately by sunny skies. Everything was lush, and verdant and the Miller's herb, spice and flowers perfumed the air. We relaxed in the pool, savored Sharon Miller's outstanding cooking (try the... more

Our stay at the Rio Vista was wonderful. We hope to return again next year. The setting is beautiful, and while it’s remote, that’s just what we wanted. We enjoyed taking taxis to various beaches because it gave us an opportunity to learn about Jamaican life, history and the current political climate – our various drivers were friendly and willing... more

We visited Rio Vista Village for 5 nights in April 2006. After reading all the good reports on this side – I must admit we were a bit disappointed.

My husband and I just spent five wonderful days in the Honeymoon Suite at the Rio Vista Resort Villas on Snow Hill in Port Antonio, Jamiaca.
