Jah Freedom Inn Negril

Jean and Courtney The house is wonderful with gorgeous views from the 3rd floor balcony. We were made to feel welcome and comfortable. We were allowed use of the whole house and the owner is a wealth of knowledge on local businesses. He saved us money on food by telling us the best places to go with very reasonable prices. We plan to stay here often as well as recommend this place to our friends and relatives. You can’t beat it!

As you can see from all of the other reviews, Jah Freedom Guesthouse, along with its owner, Steve, should be on anyone's radar when selecting accommodations in and around the Negril area. The place has everything you will need vacationing in Negril. Its location is central to 7 mile beach and the cliffs. The location puts you smack in the middle of the best Negril has to offer. From "real" Jamaican food, drink, and people. You will not want for anything. He also has some of the nicest, most well-behaved, and social pets. His dogs and parrot are awesome! Now to Steve....not only has his long-time residence in Negril benefit Steve, but benefits his guests as well. His knowledge and experience with the locals, food, drinks, music, area attractions, and everything Negril is priceless. He is a great guy who goes out of his way to ensure his guests experience the "real" Jamaica. When I travel, I never want to travel as a tourist. I want to experience my destinations as a "local." Steve will deliver to your wishlist. He did for me, and I'm so grateful for that. When I return to Negril, I will most certainly be contacting Steve. In the meantime, I will cherish the times and memories of my 2-weeks spent in Negril! Thank you, Steve! Respect! Brian

Steve went above and beyond, making us feel welcome, taken care of, and made sure we had absolutely everything we wanted and needed. He showed us all the best places to eat (Just Natural for breakfast & Kool Vybez are absolutely essential!), swim, hang out, see live music (Roots Bamboo is a must!), and made sure we had coffee in the morning whenever we asked. The rooms are large, beds are comfy, and there are plenty of bathrooms with showers to accommodate a large group. Honestly couldn't recommend more. We will be back as soon as possible! Thanks Jah Freedom!

My husband Jim and I vacationed in Jamaica last week. We were referred to Steve by a friend, who arranged for Steve to pick us up at the airport and transport us to our beachfront hotel in Negril. We expected Steve to just be our airport driver, but he became our guide during our entire stay. We hit it off beautifully, and a wonderful friendship blossomed over the week we were there. Steve knew all the great spots to take us to, especially live music venues, which was a priority for us. With his guidance, we ate at the best restaurants, heard talented musicians throughout the week, avoided any problem areas or overpriced venues, and met some very interesting locals who all knew and had great respect for Steve. He also invited us to his guest house, which is a wonderful option for those who don’t need a beachfront property. It is lovely, comfortable, and has an amazing view from his veranda. Had we not made other plans in advance, we would have been tempted to stay there, and will probably do so in future trips. Can’t recommend Jah Freedom Guesthouse and Steve’s services more enthusiastically!

Steve is an awesome host, a willing person who want the guest to have a great experience

I had the pleasure of spending 8 days here recently and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jah Freedom House for your next tropical island adventure. This is a unique property, well maintained and strategically located just up the hill from the beaches of Negril. Also, the bedrooms are on the 3rd floor. which means INCREDIBLE VIEWS and sunsets! There is no shortage of both chill island beach vibes here with local live music several nights a week - some with bonfires on the beach at night! The friendly host was helpful in suggesting local restaurants and fun things to do. One of the highlights for me was the glass bottom boat tour. This included a stop on the coral reef for snorkeling as well as a visit to a small island. The island had several pop up businesses including a tiki bar. There was also a lobsterman who would let you pick from among his fresh caught crabs and lobsters then prepare them over an open fire right there for you. Wow!! So tasty to be cooked fresh right there with exciting tropical spices!
