For camping glam hut 10/10 unique property and unique huts overlooking a cliff of Boston bay beach extremely friendly staff and next to Boston jerk. Walk beach and food. My only issue was I feel property needs better walkways that are safer and more groundskeeping needs to be done get rid of stagnant ponds Just know this isn't a luxury resort more of a unique camping in a hut treehouse with unique views. Great food at resort too we loved our stay and the people

Creative, beautiful and rustic.
Interesting and creative huts built out of natural materials. No locks but there are safes in each room. No AC, but there are big nets and fans. Great location and an awesome semi-private beach (local surfers paddle up and hang out there too). Amazingly friendly and attentive staff. Stay here if you want a true Jamaican experience and are ok with uneven ground and creative spaces.

What an amazing place! We absolutely loved our long weekend at Great Huts, so much so that we just hung out enjoying the beautiful lush jungle property and adjacent Boston Beach rather than venturing forth to see other sights in the area. This is not for you if you need luxury and a/c, but don’t hesitate if you love nature and being in the great outdoors, quirky artistic hut accommodation, good food and wonderful friendly staff. We especially loved the constant sound of the crashing waves that came with our fabulous Fig Tree hut. Thank you Roberta and everyone else at Great Huts for a truly unique experience.

We spent 3 nights at Great Huts in the Queen of Sheba. We had an amazing experience!
From the warm and friendly check in where they provided fresh beetroot, pine and ginger juice, the grounds tour where we learned a lot about the property and Africana House, to the exceptional cleanliness of our huts and the grounds, and lastly the amazing food! We chose to have all of our meals at the resort instead of venturing out to the jerk stalls because the food was just that delicious. What really makes Great Huts shine is the staff! They truly put extra love into everything they do and it really shows. We all felt right at home and like part of the Great Huts family! We will definitely be back and stay longer next time.

As “hotels” go Great Huts really is unique. Huge site with its own private beach, rocks, hammocks etc. Quirky individual “rooms” of varying shapes & sizes “in the jungle” We stayed in Iqbo in the Africanerhouse. With aircon and effectively a private swimming pool. Super friendly staff. Made to order breakfasts. Nice dining facilities too.
Outstanding, totally outstanding, jerk food within walking distance.

Every staff member was both friendly and accommodating, from the front desk to the chefs to the custodians to security. The entire layout gives the impression of living in a jungle paradise on the coast while providing comfort at every turn. Highly recommended!

Overall my husband and I enjoyed our stay. We’re a little bit older and not as in shape as we thought, lol. All the stairs were a little bit hard for us. Aside from that, if you enjoy nature it’s a beautiful spot. Friendly, helpful, caring staff. Quick easy check in-out.

Had a nice stay. Great concept which was unique and fun. However the site was rundown and needed a lot more maintenance. There was no outside dining so breakfast or lunch was rather dark but evening atmospheric. Very few outside chairs to watch the sun or admire the views. We liked swimming in the bay. We stayed in 2 different huts. Queen Nyabinghi was approached by 10 very steep external stairs not shown in the photos. A great resort if you are after something unusual and off the beaten track. Tasty food. Great breakfasts.

Never lived in a treehouse before. It was fun to live in a tree and see that terrific sunrise. The meals tasted good but I expected them too be cheaper. Very helpful staff, they got me a bus to go to Montego Bay and a driver to get me to the bus. There assistance was vital.
