“Great value and an enjoyable experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I came to Villa Bella seeking peace, comfort, beauty and a certain level of luxury. I was not disappointed. The welcome was warm and genuine. I was completely won over by the flower on the tray, which held my welcoming pot of coffee.

My room, in the main house, was light and airy and very clean, with a superb long-distance view. The hotel's elevartion and its location. at the top of a small hill, meant that the room was pleasantly cool, ideal for sleep.

I appreciated the choice of fabrics, around the hotel, from the crisp white cotton of my bed-sheets to the quality and colours of the table napkins. I also admired the sturdy but elegant coffee pots and the arresting art work on the walls. The Villa Bella feels as though someone really cares about it and how it looks.

The all-female staff was genuine and friendly and concerned that I had what I needed, without being too obtrusive. .

Overall, my stay was great value and a very enjoyable experience.

“It doesn't feel like a hotel - more like home away from home.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2011

I stayed in this charming hotel in December 2010. It's very quiet, very clean, and after a day, I felt like I was visiting a relative (grandmother maybe) - it just has this "homey" atmosphere. The staff catered to my every whim and I was allowed to order off the menu - "just tell us what you want eat and we'll prepare it."

Rooms are cleaned every morning - you just have to leave your keys at the front desk. It gets quite chilly in the evenings/morning which made me appreciate the hot showers even more.

Did I mention that the owner has one of the sharpest minds I've ever encountered and that she'll go out of her way to cater to her guests? Well she does and she did.

I left feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated.

“Step back in time to cool and cosy comfort”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2010

people found this review helpful

Not sure whether Penn 1956 commented on the same little VillaBella Hotel in Christiana that I have been staying at for the past year or more . Even in its down days, when I stayed there in 2004, the comment would not have matched VillaBella.
Dirty ? Cockroaches ? ? No way !
This is a quaint little old world hotel, nestled in a well kept garden with views of Jamaica's beautiful countryside. It is a quiet, simple hotel, but with a touch of old world elegance befitting its owner / manager. Staff are oh so helpful and courteous, and I look forward to tasty meals, tastefully presented , as i absorb the special ambiance on its cool and airy verandah .
VillaBella is for niche tourism: relaxation, good food, possibly romance, a great spot for venturing out to Jamaica's beautiful countryside.
Definitely not for nightlife, casinos, and beachlovers !
