Very spacious room, lovely view. The complex is located in a beautiful garden – yes with also piment trees.

A hidden gem, that blends authentic Jamaican charm with warm hospitality and breathtaking scenery. The accommodations are simple but comfortable, with a rustic feel. Room clean, airy and equipped with essentials. Highlight was the home-cooked meals made with local and home grown ingredients. The hosts were friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Which demonstrates that they take pride in making guests feel at home.! Thank you Kate, Lloyd and Dionne for such a. Lovely stay. We will be back!

What an amazing facility with the best hosts ever! It is a family ran resort with all the feel of home and relaxation. Mr. Lloyd was the engine that never quits, you can tell he’s passionate about his resort. We got the old school no problem man vibe everytime we asked for something. And the view, the view was amazing! Sit out on the porch and look and the beautiful well kept garden or by pool and get a glimps of the ocean view. Either way you’re gonna fall in love this place like we did.

If you are driving from Port Antonio the road is bad after Boston Bay, it will take at least 30 minutes from there. In the other direction the road is bad all the way to Morant Bay. Lloyd was hopeful the road works would be fininshed by September in which case it will be an easy drive, but be warned, it takes a long time to get out of Long Bay at the moment (which is in no way the hotels fault).

We had an excellent stay, the hosts were very kind and helpful, with great tips for local attractions. I would highly recomend a stay here.

The property is set in the most beautiful garden. The rooms are individually handcrafted by the owners. Lloyd, Kate and their small team look after the property and their guests very well. It is a perfect base to visit many things but also a great place to relax.

A little in need of maintenance.

Self-styled Shangri-La, hand built by host, Lloyd, and run be his lovely wife, Kate, of some 40 years and daughter Dionne who assists via phone from UK.

Dinner more expensive than expected and experienced other place where we stayed in Jamaica. There was considerable litter on the beautiful beach.

The room was very good and the view superior. Long Bay is very beautiful and peaceful place. People in Long Bay were very friendly,

I had such a magical time at the resort, the owners were lovely people and so kind, caring and welcoming. They went out of their way to make us feel at home. I am fully plant based and there was maximum effort to create the most delicious breakfasts with the most natural and fresh Caribbean food, some even gown within the grounds of the resort itself. The rooms are so clean and comfy and the resort is a dream with such beautiful nature and is super quite and safe. The white sandy beach is a 5 min walk at the bottom of the hill and close by is so many amazing authentic places to eat. Looking forward to going back soon.

The only real issue was the inability of stable POS machine for purchases. Our group would have purchased a lot more if there was a secure method of payment. The host did mention that they are working on this, so we are excited for this development for our next visit.

The location is simply spectacular. There is an incredible view of the ocean, the grounds are beautifully curated with a diversity of flowers and fruit trees. You feel right at home and carefree on the property. The sunrise and sunset are simply stunning. The staff is incredibly friendly. Our meals here were really delicious and they accommodated one member of our party who has a very restrictive diet. The hosts are so approachable, very responsive, open, fun and gracious.

Pimento Lodge totally met our expectations.

Lovely hidden location up in the hills above Long Bay beach which is a lovely little coconut tree lined beach. From Long Bay you can take a route taxi for 300 per person to the many sights on the road to Port Antonio including Blue Lagoon, Boston Jerk Centre and the beautiful Frenchman’s Cove. We organised a driver through the hotel to take us on some day tours which were unmissable experiences. The rooms all have balconies looking over the ocean, they’re spacious and a lot better than the photos indicate. But the highlight of Pimento Lodge are Lloyd and Kate who are wonderful hosts. Warm hospitality and wonderful home cooking for breakfast and dinner each day.

Bar / restaurant / pool area could do with a makeover, it feels a bit tired.

Lovely big room with sea views. Our hosts Lloyd & his wife were charming and looked after us well. A great place to stay to visit Reach Falls.

My family and I stayed at Pimento Lodge for 8 days In January 2024 - what a wonderful experience. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, I found myself exploring the gardens and watching/listening to the birds each day. The view of the ocean from the lodge's high vantage point was a great start to each day and the ocean breeze at night made for some excellent sleeps. We had hours of fun in the pool with our 4-year old daughter and enjoyed our breakfasts each morning which included superb coffee, fruits, and local dishes such as ackee and saltfish. The walk into town each day was a great way to see Long Bay, a beautiful area with a very mellow vibe. Above all, we got to spend time with the owners of Pimento Lodge, Llyod and Kate, a very sweet and loving couple who made us feel right at home. Kea, Seth and Sonya miss you. We will be back one day!

As the tap water was not drinkable, bottled water could have been provided in the rooms for free.

Hosts and location utterly faultless. Incredible views.

Stayed in February 2024

Spectacular views and great facilities! We went for a swim in the pool every morning and then enjoyed a homemade breakfast made by the lovely hosts Lloyd and Kate! The hosts are an amazing lovely couple who helped us with activities exploring the area and cooked for us every evening! Definitely recommend to stay here if you are in Jamaica and want to get away from crowded touristy places

Our stay at Pimento Lodge was absolutely wonderful. Mr. Llod and Mrs. Kate are such kind and attentive individuals, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay with their interesting and gentle conversations. The entire staff is helpful and friendly, the accommodations are impeccably clean, and the overall infrastructure is fantastic. The pool area and rooms offer stunning ocean views, and the surroundings are embraced by nature. We highly recommend this place! We hope to see you again soon!

The view from the property was amazing! The rooms are nice, clean and cozy. The hosts were so kind and gave our group a warm welcome! The vibes of this place are just lovely and very familiar.

Stayed in July 2023

It is quite remote without many other restaurants or tourist facilities within walking distance. Our hosts were happy to cook for us in the evening, often using food grown in their garden. The roads between Kingston and Port Antonio are not for the faint hearted.

Beautifully designed, good pool, delightful hosts and fabulous views. Quiet and safe. Excellent varied breakfasts. The property is built on a hillside overlooking Long Bay set in a beautiful tropical garden.

The kindest most sweetest hosts, we were taken great care of. We all enjoyed our stay at pimento. Thank you very much

The meals and drinks are a little pricey, which no doubt reflects the lack of alternatives in Long Bay and around.

Almost everything about Pimento Lodge met or exceeded our expectations. Lloyd and Kate are excellent and knowledgeable hosts, their daughter Dionne was also there and it was a pleasure to meet and talk with her. The food was good and the location and lodge surroundings were also very good.

I had confirmed a booking for two deluxe king rooms. We received one modest room with a queen bed and an adjacent dormitory-style room that was as spare as could be. The booking agent kept insisting that was my request - but it was not what I booked! Neither room remotely compared to their larger rooms on a higher floor that might meet the deluxe definition. Booking agent acknowledged the difference but only gave a modest discount. Do not expect a "boutique" hotel. There are no toiletries, the breakfast is minimal with no menu or choices, no towels by the pool, there is no onsite restaurant or food, the shower is a makeshift handheld, the toilet flooded, etc. Booking agent acknowledged that upgrades are needed.

The onsite proprietors are really lovely people - very welcoming and kind. They try their best but need more staffing and support. The location and property is beautiful but it is in a remote area. Just one restaurant in easy driving distance.

More information about property and area would have been useful. Supper is $35 with fish and $25 for vegetarians. Long trip from Kingston on windy roads over the mountains or the patchy tarmac on the coastal road.

Amazing views and coastline. Delicious excellent vegetarian food and fish, much of the produce grown organically on the property’s grounds.
