Datura Villa is a wonderful 5 bedroom, 6 bathroom villa which sits perched on 9 acres and offers cool breezes and panoramic views of Montego Bay.

Within the house is a high-ceiling, grand living room with mahogany floors, a library, bar, TV room, antiques, a screened-in dining room overlooking the aquamarine waters below, and a commercial kitchen with ice maker and blender.
The large terrace, which is ideal for daydreaming and viewing stars at night, overlooks the large swimming pool and hot tub. Also on the grounds are a tennis court, tropical gardens and fruit trees of mango, orange, banana, coconut, lemon, allspice, and breadfruit. This is the perfect spot for families, honeymoons, and groups of friends to relax and play.

hot tub, cabana, tennis court, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, stereo
with CD player, hammock, picnic table, commercial stove, refrigerator,

The staff at Datura villa is what completes the experience. Madge, the cook, is very accommodating to all diets and vegetarian requests. Menus are available to aid you in planning your meals, and Madge will advise you how best to take advantage of the market and seasonal conditions.
Fresh fruit platter and fresh squeezed orange juice are part of every breakfast, if you so desire.
