Like travelling through a time warp, to visit Jamaica’s South Coast is to experience another Jamaica of 30 years ago. The pace is slow, the lifestyle uncomplicated, the people are kind and calm. An uncommon sense of bliss feels pervasive on this part of the Island. Out of the Blue is an oxymoron: a contemporary home in Old Jamaica. And what a home it is! The villa sits on the longest uninterrupted expanse of sea view at beach level of any other beach property in this group.
The Out of the Blue cook, like many in the uncomplicated town of Treasure Beach, tends to delight her guests with succulent roast chicken seasoned with herbs from her own garden, the freshest fish from the night’s catch and the healthiest salads made with ingredients grown in the renowned rich soil of the South Coast which are trucked to restaurants and supermarkets elsewhere on the Island. Try the local fare … sour sop juice to lower blood pressure and promote restful sleep, coconut water for heart health and hydration, ackee and salt fish to qualify as a Jamaican, and fried dumplings just because they’re so good.
Note* The grocery stores are quite a distance away from the villa, we recommend that guests plan their weekly menus in advance. We also encourage guests to purchase wine at a Montego Bay grocery store on their way from the airport as the choice may be limited in Treasure Beach.
Live here with doors and windows open 24/7. Hear waves break on your beach, see the family of goats who visit the garden for snacks, marvel at the pelicans and, most of all, see the sea.
Smart design is by one of Jamaica’s most-in-demand interior designers. Contemporary style is laced with rustic follies: sconces with twigs camouflaging light bulbs, driftwood shelving, water pipes inside hollow logs, an outdoor shower masquerading as a tree, and a stone garden walkway studded with 500 tiny squares of blue glass that gleam in the sun. A myriad of driftwood inventions soften and redefine the chic clean lines of this contemporary beach home.
In Out of the Blue, it would be out of line not to mention the sweet staff. Bev, Donna, Randy, Phillip and Carlton are warm and unassuming, slightly shy, surprisingly thoughtful, eager to please, and always ready with a Jamaican folk song and a laugh. Before bedtime, they may place night-blooming jasmine by your bed so that the clean Treasure Beach air is fragrant through the night.
What is there to do on the South Coast if one ever wants to leave the paradise of life at Out of the Blue?

I have just got back from Out of the Blue. Oh my! Great Bay was lovely … silver moon on the water … just spectacular … gorgeous calm sea stretching into the horizon ... a small dark line only every now and then as a wave curls over … an early morning runner on the beach and a fishing boat heading out to Pedro Banks, silvery wake behind him ... lovely staff looking after us … so difficult to tear ourselves away and head back to reality! Well worth the extra drive time, just as you promised. We’ll be back … we’re a sure thing! Thank you so much!
Susan W. & Family
Will definitely return for another beautiful trip!
