4 Bedroom, 4 Bathroom Oceanside Villa

Coral Cottage is equipped to provide you with a homey, comfortable experience while on your dream vacation. Located just steps from the ocean in a rural fishing village, the cottage boasts four bedroom suites - The Orchid Room and The Ackee Room upstairs, and The Garden View Room and The Hibiscus Room downstairs. Each of these rooms has their own large, adjoined en-suite bathrooms. Each room also has a luxurious queen-sized bed, perfect for resting before another exciting day on the island. The Hibiscus Room has both a queen-sized bed and a twin-sized bed. Each room has a large hand-carved wooden wardrobe with hanging room and drawers and matching nightstands so you can spread out and make it feel like home.

The Cottage also provides a private third-floor observation deck where visitors can sunbathe in private while enjoying a stunning view of the ocean in one direction and the spectacular peaks of the mountains in the other.

A beautiful tropical garden on the cottage's property houses an outdoor gazebo for dining or entertaining and a grill. Hammocks are hung in the garden, perfect for an afternoon lounge in the shade.

Coral Cottage is located away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas of Jamaica. Nestled in Little Bay, it sits right inside a small fishing village - the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and 'off the beaten path' type of vacation. Coral Cottage is located just twenty minutes outside of one of the biggest tourist areas on the island, Negril, where visitors can shop and check out local nightlife, while still having the luxury to escape the noise and crowds by returning to the cottage. Adventure can be found right outside the cottage, whether it is at Bob Marley's mineral spring, the bat cave, the nearby white sand beach, or just outside the house on our oceanfront. Located on one of the most desired vacation properties on the island, Coral Cottage sits on the oceanfront where you can swim, snorkel, and sunbathe. The water outside the villa is so clear you can see fish from shore! Sit out on our lounge chairs and sunbathe, or jump in the water for a swim. Hop off into the sea from our coral waterfront. We provide snorkeling equipment for those who want to check out the underwater sights. You will create lifetime memories, and experience the wonders of Jamaica at Coral Cottage!

Our family of nine spent a week at Coral Cottage celebrating 50 years of marriage. The location is about 40 minutes south of Negril. The home is unique with beautiful surroundings, not really luxurious but charming in a good way. The two bedrooms upstairs are very nice with big baths. The two bedrooms downstairs smaller. The lookout on top is up a pretty tricky stairway, but has a great view. Our teenage grandchildren loved seeing all the animals, doves, rabbits, roosters, goats, cats and dogs. They learned more in one week than probably a year of school about Island life and Jamaican people. We enjoyed our first dinner of Jerk chicken and fixings that Ritchie and Mama prepared for us. The pool is a short walk and is on a beautiful cliff (that everyone enjoyed jumping from). We spent every other day there. It was very peaceful and relaxing. The second evening we purchased local Bonita (Tuna) to cook and it was delicious! We rented cars in Negril and went to the beach at Treehouse Resort on 7 mile beach a few times. Ritchie is the very helpful manager and took us to see the Blue Hole, Bat cave and Mineral Springs on Bob Marleys old house property very close to Coral Cottage. We were sad to say goodbye ,but all said we had a FUN time. Keep in mind that we have traveled all over Mexico and the Caribbean so one has to be able to adapt to different cultures. This is very secluded and the drive was not easy. A plus is no one got sick from any water or food(which is an always in Mexico or Dominican Republic)!! If complete seclusion and relaxation is your goal with friendly gracious Jamaicans then Coral Cottage will not disappoint. Thank you to everyone, it was an adventure to remember for all of us!!

My family and I stayed at Coral Cottage in Little Bay Jamaica for 9 days, the property and grounds was absolutely gorgeous. The staff, Richie, Rona, and Poochie were amazing, so friendly, helpful, and accommodating . We enjoyed getting to know them and the culture of Jamaica.

Beautiful place, nice gracious locals, private, but 20 mins from Negril

We spent 7 wonderful days at Coral Cottage with Diana, Romaine, Ponco "grandma" and Mim. The house is set off the beaten path, but not too hard to find. You have access to the sea not far from the house, where you can jump in and swim as much as you would like. We chose to cook a lot of our meals, so Diana even traded some recipes with us. We had a blast in the small community of Little Bay staying about a 5 minute walk from Bob Marley's vacation home, Boot will tell you all about it. If you are looking for a place to get away from a lot of tourists this is it. You can just sit back, relax and do as much or as little as you like. No worries as you will hear many people say there. Beautiful place and an amazing time. We will definitely be going back again.

Coral Cottage is one of the most unique places that I have had the opportunity to visit. As soon as I arrived, I felt welcomed and at home. Richie, Poochie, and Diane are the nicest people and their hospitality was superb. Not only did they teach me a lot about Jamaica and the culture, but they accompanied us on our day trips. Richie and Poochie came with us up to Appleton, and we had the BEST time. They made us laugh the entire time!

The rooms and ground at Coral Cottage are also what makes this villa so wonderful. Breakfast on the veranda was amazing. The fresh fruit was incredible, and I didn't want to leave. The flowers were in bloom, the rooms were spotless, and I loved the 3rd floor viewing deck. I could truly relax and enjoy this slice-of-paradise.

I was initially hesitant about the location, but Little Bay is perfect. The community is so nice and everyone we met was friendly. Little Bay is close to Negril, and far enough away so you can enjoy the real Jamaica (away from the resorts). I cannot wait to come back to Coral Cottage, and next time I'm bringing more friends and family with me!

Little bay is perfect and coral cottage is a gem

I stayed at coral cottage for 3 nights in mid December and I was the only guest at the time. I thoroughly loved the place. The room upstairs was large and super clean, with safe and ac. Richie, the owner, was very nice and helpful, and his 5 year old daughter, Terriann, and I got along very well. I also loved grumpy, their dog.

Little bay is a truly off the beaten track location, which may not be for everyone. It definitely was for me. Few cars pass through and the best way to see the village and meet the locals is to set out on foot or bike. There are also a few interesting local sites to visit.

The only downfall is that there is nowhere to eat. You have to order food at the cottage. This is fine if you are a group or other guests are staying at the cottage, not so fine since I was all alone. Luckily I met some locals who cooked for me, so it wasn't really a problem.

I definitely plan to be back.
