Beautiful property nestled in a safe and serene community. Ideal if you like a quiet setting, away from the hustle and bustle from typical tourist locations. Host was also accessible and welcoming! Would stay here again if visiting areas close by to the property.

Lavern’s Place was the perfect for my Ocho Rios trip. It’s super clean, safe, and located in a quiet area just a walk away from downtown and the beach. I went for a morning jog and felt totally at ease — even passed kids on their way to school. The AC worked great and the views from the room were a bonus, including the nice pool! The host was great too, everything we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Air conditioning was effective. Just had issue with it in 1 room. But was fixed immediately. Property was clean, secure and safe. Only suggestion is more towels and wash clothes if staying past 2 days.

I think its advertised as an apartment its a room in a house, directions to the property poor, the house has a musty smell,not my bedroom but when you enter the house. its not a quite area, music playing from bus park & other residents, staff that i saw was nice, fridge not plugged in, in kitchen, no instructions to work appliances, another holiday maker asked me how to open the front door with the fob, not worth £75 per night

I did like that it was a pool on the property but it needed some maintenance it was cloudy a little dirty, i like how the rooms were spacious and A.C. in them. The main gate was having problems getting stuck but was resolved afterwards. One of the rooms we stayed in the tv remote was missing but there were tvs in other rooms which was convenient. The staff will wash your clothes for you per load which was helpful for the time i needed it, i had a small 2 loads and charged me $20 and i gave $5 tip. The staff were very helpful and Ms. Lavern is very helpful as well and you can call her when needed very reliable with the communication. Overall very nice property
