we loved this little gem. It is not as fancy as other island outpost hotels but service much more friendly than anywhere else in Carribean. We loved the laid back atmosphere, the food, the people, the setting. Yes, the beach was a bit disappointing but the pool was amazing and the views fantastic. If you still want a bit of... more

Jakes may have been something special at one time but it is now run down and without the advertised charm. I am a big fan of small, unique accomodations that offer a true local experience. My husband and I have been to Jamaica many, many times and stayed at every type of hotel you can think of, in every part... more

Rooms are very, very tiny, dingy & oven-style hot. No fan, no A/C, no front desk service, no running water. Food expensive and average. Beach is craggy, dirty and tides are really rough. There are no smooth sand type areas for relaxing and sunbathing and no areas for snorkeling and/or diving period. The seas are just too rough and it's... more

There's no better place for an off-the-beaten-path Jamaican experience than Jake's in Treasure Beach. This was our third stay in the past 10 years and we were once again blown away by the staff's generousity of warmth and charm and the festive ambiance of the buildings and grounds. The local community and surrounding areas provide endless opportunities for recreation, exploration... more

I met up with friends for a destination wedding. 60+ guests from overseas in the community of Treasure Beach and 100% of them loved the place. Jake's is truly a true gem in Jamaica and so is treasure beach. They offer the real Jamaican Experience! more

We went to Jamaica for our honeymoon and didn't arrive until late at night in Kingston. We weren't sure what to expect, but leaving the airport we were very glad that we had pre-arranged travel through Jake's. The driver was really nice and popped by Jake's nearly everyday. The drive to the resort took about 3 hours and was an... more

I love Jake's and have stayed there 3 times over the last few years. Funky hotel with great service. Jake's is not a luxury hotel, but is for people on their way up. more

My wife and I just returned from a (short) week at Jakes. We were traveling with two other couples - friends of mine from college and their partners - to celebrate one couple's 5th wedding anniversary. We loved our experience at Jakes and hope to return some day. Our flight from Philadelphia was uneventful, as was our trip to the... more

Let me start by saying, I never write reviews. I have traveled a ton, and have had moments where I was compelled to comment, but have never taken the affirmative step (until now), to do so. I just got back from Jake's and had such a wonderful experience. There were 10 of us (mix of family & friends, young and... more
