    A little difficult to find/get to in the night if you’re driving yourself. Not a problem if you’re getting a taxi!

    Beautiful location, lovely rooms and apartments.

    I have stayed at the Tranquility many times and it was up to it's usual very good standard and the swimming pool was fantastic. I visited her with my sister and we had a room each, both very comfortable.

    We had breakfast every morning on the balcony overlooking the view of the Kingston and the ocean. Our room was spacious. The bathroom was spacious. The balcony to the room was a nice a size. We were able to see the mountains.

    I want you "travelers from all around the world" to know that Lorna, the owner of the place, is absolutely exceptional for the way she handled my special requests and particularly my pick-up/drop-off, my food & drinks requests. she is professional, courteous, friendly, attentive, and engaging. she is such an exemplary & gracious host. She makes you feel so welcome, we almost already feel at home and soon in paradise at the same time. Her knowledge of Kingston and her remarkable solving request efficiency are rare indeed nowadays. She is a rich source of balanced information that we usually rarely glean while staying in a classic hotel. I just thought you should all know that this is a real asset to her business. Anyone who treats customers with so much kindness and attention is a rare jewel, and truly gives you an edge over her competition. Lorna Nelson (and Bill Samuels !) are definitely part of the reason we will (without a shadow of doubt) looking forward to stay with them again in the future. Moreover, I would wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Tranquility Estate to any lawyer of our law firm or relatives. We are already llooking forward to stay among such an amazing oasis of calm and tranquility with spectacular views and wonderful hosts. Regards, Valérie T.

    Breathtaking view from the balcony, the entire house is beautiful. We met Lorna the owner, she was super kind and helpful. We decided to check out early, and she even packed our breakfast for the road. Great spot to spend the night if you are heading up to the Blue Mountains.

Breakfast was amazing and served on the veranda with a breathtaking view of the hills overlooking Kingston. She went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and we look forward to staying again!

    Pool was out of service when we were there. I book this place to visit Kingston, but it is far up a hill and takes lots of time (and attention ;) ) to get to the city. For food, you also have to drive half an hour down. Its a great place to unwind and watch the views, but would not use it again as a base to explore kingston :)

    The owner !! Ms Nelson is sooo nice and welcoming ! She takes care to spend time with all her guests individually, so you feel like you are visiting a distant aunt you never met :) Breakfast is great. Try the ackee and saltfish !

    It would have been great to have some coffee in the room to enjoy on our balcony.

    Beautiful views of Kingston and the mountains - and a calm and peaceful place to stay. Our host was very gracious and helpful and we had the best breakfast of our trip - ackee and saltfish and fabulous local fruit served with stunning views and a cool breeze.

    Lorna was an exemplary host. She made me feel so welcome and was very accommodating as I alerted her to my late arrival time. The food was absolutely delicious, made with fresh ingredients grown on the premises. I was a single traveller and I felt very safe with Lorna! I'd go again just to continue our conversations.

    Fabulous host in a fantastic location. A large country house overlooking Kingston from the aptly Ned Skyline ridge. Lorna is a superb cook serving the highest quality Jamaican dishes with exotic fruits and, of course, the world's best coffee from just up the Blue Mountains. She is also a rich source of balanced information that you will rarely glean while staying in a hotel or Air B&B . You will need a car and be a competent, confident driver to get up the steep hills but it is genuinely worth it.

    Clearly nothing.

    We stayed in Jamaica for 10 days and Tranquility Estate was one of 4 accommodations, but by far most the best one. Our Suite was spacious and had a great aura, from the balcony we had an astonishing view on the Blue Mountains and Kingston. The quality of breakfast was excellent, with fresh fruits from the Garden and local markets. Our host Lorna is so lovely and made that we felt like at home and in paradise at the same time. We can't describe in words, how good we felt at Tranquility Estate.
