We loved our stay Pimento Lodge! It's stunningly beautiful place. The owners put a lot of care into the property and it shows. They also put their hearts into it. We thoroughly enjoyed conversations with the lovely hosts and missed them when we left.

Kate and Lloyd are incredible hosts and do all they can to make you feel at home. They are wonderful storytellers and caring people -- we loved meeting them and spending time with them. Their property is delightful for any nature lover. We spent hours birdwatching and taking in all the fruits and plants on site. The facilities are clean -- and also rustic (i.e. not fancy in a modern way). It's also a shame -- and not the hosts' fault -- that the road to get to the lodge is so beat up. Pimento Lodge is a nature-lover's paradise and we are so grateful for our time in this slice of heaven.

Kate and Llyod proved to be excellent hosts. The property was as advertised. Fresh ingredients harvested from the property made meals special. I would say the property pulls you away form high tech devices to a place you can just relax.

An amazing location Property well maintained with beautiful artwork around the place. Rooms tasteful, clean and comfortable.Beautiful views and peaceful spaces. We enjoyed the breakfasts which was provided depending on what’s available. The hosts are wonderful people who made us feel at home and were lovely company too. Lloyd plays an eclectic mix of tunes at the bar : ) We will certainly be back to Pimento Lodge when in Jamaica.

Pimento Lodge is a hidden retreat, albeit, a rough diamond, offering solace & serenity. A quiet place to reflect & refresh away from everyday hustle & bustle. Hosts, Kate & Lloyd are friendly & relaxed. Rooms are spacious and clean. The grounds are kept beautiful & the sea views are breath-taking. Meals are deliciously prepared on request from local produce grown on site. However, it does help to eat out in one of the many Port Antonio restaurants from time to time, as the hotel food is very expensive. This hotel would greatly benefit from some upgrades, as well as some added features, in services and amenities such as, access to WIFI, a TV in the room or a radio, as the rooms are very sparse. There were issues with the AC and water supply. A few tea bags on Day 1 of arrival would have been an added touch to wake up to, as well as complimentary continental breakfast should have been included in the price. I should add that due to the Pandemic restrictions, my partner and I chose this hotel for advertised specifications namely, WIFI and added comforts, unfortunately, these were lacking. However, Kate & Lloyd have assured us that they are addressing the issues of no WIFI and cable TV. I would definitely stay at this hotel again, provided the facilities and services have been greatly upgraded. Thank you Kate & Lloyd.

Pimento Lodge is very unique. It has many levels of outdoor spaces built into the mountain and lovely furnishings. The food was wonderful and the staff very friendly, courteous and friendly. I felt very relaxed looking over the bay as the ocean breezes gently caressed me and fell asleep easily to the sounds from the gardens.

Jamaica has a wealth of hidden gems for the inquisitive tourist. The Pimento Lodge is one of those priceless jewels that offers far more than just an alternative to the all-inclusive experience. Huge rooms with comfortable beds, air conditioning, and glorious views of the Caribbean Sea are just the beginning. Katherine and Lloyd are superb hosts, excellent cooks, and go out of their way to insure you have perfect stay and want to come back. For the experienced traveler, the Pimento Lodge is conveniently located near Boston - the home of Jamaican Jerk, the famous Blue Lagoon, and rafting on the Rio Grande. The Pimento Lodge is also a perfect hideaway for a writer, screenplay producer, or editor to start, finish, or polish a written work of art. The peaceful atmosphere lends itself to creativity at the highest level. Complete with a large, clean pool and exotic garden, the Pimento Lodge has everything you need to refresh, unwind, and give yourself over to the natural life. When you’ve grown tired of the same “make believe” Jamaica, book a few nights or a few weeks in the Pimento Lodge and experience the “real” Jamaica for a change.

Situated in Long Bay high on a hill looking out across Long Bay. Wonderful opportunity to watch an amazing sunrise if you rise early. Llyoyd and Kathy Edwards warm and welcoming hosts with a small team of staff. Beautiful surrounding, nature at its best, bird song , flower and fauna.

Peaceful Stay, in this tuck-away spot
I love the quietness and tranquility of this hidden gem in the Portland Area. The low key atmosphere is great for resting and offer a difference from the larger scale resort type atmosphere. The workers were very friendly and the owner was very amicable and accommodating. Definitely would return.

The Pimento Lodge is a gem
The Pimento Lodge is a gem of a little hotel on a lush hillside overlooking the seat. With only 7 rooms, all unique, Pimento Lodge feels like a retreat. The grounds are beautifully planted with flowers and fruit trees, the pool area is inviting, and the peace and quiet are sweet.

Quiet, peaceful, gorgeous views
Nestled up on the hill, Pimento Lodge offers stunning views of the blue, raucous waves of Long Bay Beach. The rooms are spacious, immaculately clean, and comfortable. Every night, we sat on our veranda and listened to the birds and bugs. Kate and Lloyd are kind and friendly hosts, and we felt very safe. I'd recommend bringing snacks with you from your home country as the grocery stores have limited options-not a complaint, just an FYI. If you're driving yourself, get the tire insurance as the roads do have potholes. Bring Jamaican cash--you'll get better deals in town. Amazing time in a beautiful country.

Highly Recommend
The Pimento Lodge is a beautiful and peaceful property. The owners take great pride in the buildings, grounds, and the service. The attention to detail is great. The rooms are spacious and luxurious. The grounds are like a botanical garden with incredible views. This is a place to rest and relax and enjoy nature, good food, and good company. Long Bay may be a little remote for some, but it is a short drive to the many fantastic sights Portland has to offer. The Pimento is on a hill overlooking Long Bay, so there is a steep walk down to the beach, where there are some local sports bars/eateries. AS Pimento is an eco lodge, the water heater is primarily solar, so the hot water supply may seem inconsistent to some. Overall, you notice the energy conservation efforts very little. You do notice the quality of the wonderful organic and healthy meals that served that result from their organic gardening. I very much enjoyed my stay at Pimento Lodge and hope to return soon. Over time, the gardens will only become more beautiful and the property will become even more appealing. I recommend Pimento Lodge highly.

Authentic Jamaica
Lloyd and Kate were extremely accommodating hosts who care about their guests and their property. They offer a level of personal service that only comes with an owner managed labor of love. The lush natural surroundings are a welcome respite from other more touristy parts of Jamaica and a much needed change of pace from our day to day lives in the states. Rent a car and come see the best part of the island, you will not regret it!
