Garden is absolutely wondeful. If you love nature, it is a place for you. It is easy to get to lots of beaches. Winnifred Beach is really natural and most beautiful place. Staff is really polite, but always something is inscrutable. I always felt a bit bemused, aspecially in first days. They use to upsell all services, as taxi, trips,... more

Hotel Mocking Bird Hill is an exceptional oasis with 10 beautiful rooms looking down to the sea, great food and service. We arrived with our 3 year-old daughter and could not have been made more welcome by both staff and guests. We stayed for two weeks and the longer we stayed the more we liked it. The local beach Frenchman's... more

We stayed for one week. Like other reviews, the views are beautiful, food quite good, hotel lovely. However, it is not serene and quiet! It's on 6 acres with lovely gardens but the hotel area itself is small. We aren't used to barking dogs at night! It wasn't particularly relaxing to have a massage with hotel staff talking on the... more

It is not possible for these guests to have heard the managers bickering on their arrival as the managers were not there . It is interesting that judgments about labour relations are made after conversations with trainees. Are guests aware that: We provide opportunities to persons with minimal skills and little education. US$ 60 per week is the legal minimum...

My wife and myself moved to Kingston in November 2006 and casually discovered Mocking Bird Hill few weeks after arriving in Kingston. Since then it became "our" place in Port Antonio and are going there whenever we can. The atmosphere is extremely relaxing and the view is spectacular; service is friendly and efficient and after all this time we do... more

We have just returned from a trip that included Jamaica, the Turks and Caicos and Nassau and we can say that our stay at the Hotel Mockingbird Hill in Jamaica was a major highlight of the whole trip. Getting there is a bit of a challenge - we rented a car in Montego Bay and ended up driving after dark... more

My wife and I stayed there for three nights in early January, and they advertise that you will have a very serene experience, and I must say, the beauty of the place was diminished by the obvious problems the staff and management were in the middle of... First, we were handed a list of things to expect when we arrived.... more

We find it interesting that this past guest has waited two months to post a review. We are aware of his complaint and would just like to point out that the complimentary services are provided during specific times and outside of these times items consumed are charged normally. The client was charged because the service, according to our team member,...

One should take the negative reviews seriously. I had a hotel voucher for a four night stay at Mockingbird Hill. With the full agreement of the hotel owner, I submitted the voucher to the hotel in advance of my planned vacation with the understanding, verified by numerous e mails, that I or a friend could use the voucher on a... more

This person says that his date of stay was in February 2008. This person has NEVER stayed at Hotel Mocking Bird Hill. Last year he booked the hotel with Skyauctions. Skyauctions bookings are non-refundable, non-transferable and non-changeable. For whatever reason this person needed to change his dates and despite Skyauction's terms and conditions, and trying to be helpful, we said...

We spent 13 blissful days at the Mockingbird Hill Hotel. The ambience is tranquil but far from stuffy, the staff friendly and helpful, and the rooms bright, airy and cool. The owners were extremely knowlegable and helpful in arranging excurtions, as well as being a mine of information on the locality. The Restaurant is one of the best I've had... more

This was our first trip to Jamaica, and our stay at the Mocking Bird Hill made it completely worthwhile. The quite ambiance and lush vegetation surrounding the hotel created a relaxing, serene environment. If you’re seeking a hotel that is warm, friendly, luxurious, personal, and comfortable, then Hotel Mocking Bird Hill is the place for you. The drive from the... more

I loved my stay at Mocking Bird Hill. This small, elegant hotel has well thought out guest rooms, perfectly maintained and beautifully decorated. From the hammock on my porch to the comfortable mattress, interesting in-room reading materials, upscale bathroom and crisp, pretty linens, I could not have been more pleased. The view off my porch was beautiful -- but the... more
