About this property

Fully Staffed 8BR Villa with Chef & Butler - For Families to Stay Together

Mais Oui Villa is a private, fully staffed 8-bedroom, 7-bath villa in Discovery Bay, Jamaica, created for groups of 8–16 guests.

It is particularly well suited to multigenerational families, multiple families vacationing together, family reunions, milestone celebrations, friends’ getaways and retreats.

The entire property is reserved exclusively for your group. Your chef, butler, housekeeping team and grounds staff take care of the details so everyone, including the person who organized the trip, can enjoy the vacation.

WHAT MAIS OUI MAKES POSSIBLE

At Mais Oui, your group has:

• Privacy, with the entire villa and grounds reserved exclusively for you

• A chef who prepares your meals, so no one in the group has to cook

• A housekeeping team that cares for the villa throughout your stay

• Activities for different ages and interests, with plenty to enjoy without leaving the property

• Space for everyone to stay together instead of being separated across hotel rooms

• The support that allows the person who organized the trip to enjoy the vacation too

For many families, the greatest luxury is not simply having a beautiful villa. It is being together without leaving one person responsible for all the work.

AN EXPERIENCE FOR EVERY GENERATION

One of our guests said it best:

“If you’re bored here, it’s not the house. It’s you.”

We laughed when we heard it because it is true.

Mais Oui offers plenty to do without requiring your group to leave the villa every day. Some guests stay active, others relax by the pool, and everyone can spend the vacation at their own pace.

On-site amenities include:

• Saltwater swimming pool and hot tub

• Tennis and pickleball court

• Basketball and volleyball

• Miniature golf and mini-disc golf

• Kayaks and paddleboard

• Billiards, table tennis and foosball

• Exercise room

• Outdoor movie nights

• Karaoke

• Fire pit

• More than 40 board games

• Two beaches within a two- to three-minute walk: one public and one shared private beach

Many guests arrive with plans to explore Jamaica every day, then discover that they are perfectly happy spending much of their vacation at the villa.

EXPLORE JAMAICA WHEN YOU CHOOSE

Mais Oui’s central north-coast location makes it easy to enjoy many of Jamaica’s best-known attractions and experiences, including:

• Puerto Seco Beach Club

• Green Grotto Caves

• Horseback riding

• River rafting and tubing

• ATV adventures

• Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon

• Paintball

• Swaby’s Swamp Safari

Mais Oui guests also receive access to Puerto Seco Beach Club through our villa membership. Our butler and pre-arrival concierge support can help your group arrange excursions and transportation.

PLANNING YOUR VACATION BUDGET

Your quote includes exclusive use of Mais Oui Villa, the services of our villa staff and access to all on-site amenities.

To help you plan the complete cost of your vacation, guests should also budget for groceries, staff gratuity, transportation, excursions, personal laundry and any optional spa services.

MEALS AND ALCOHOL

Guests typically budget approximately US$75–$85 per person, per day for groceries for three meals.

You choose your menu, and our chef shops for your groceries and prepares your meals. You pay the grocery store directly, so the final cost depends on your group’s menu selections, preferences and consumption.

Alcohol is additional and purchased according to your group’s preferences. We can assist with advance ordering, or your driver can stop with you after your airport pickup.

STAFF GRATUITY

Because Mais Oui is a fully staffed private villa, staff gratuity is an expected part of the cost of your stay and must be included in your vacation budget.

Staff gratuity is:

• 10% of the villa rental, excluding taxes and platform fees, during High Season

• 15% of the villa rental, excluding taxes and platform fees, during Low Season

Gratuity is paid directly to the staff at the end of your stay in recognition of the service they provide throughout your vacation. Cash is preferred, but we can arrange Zelle or credit card payment if needed.

PERSONAL LAUNDRY

The villa’s laundry facilities are used by staff for household linens and are not available for guest use. Personal guest laundry service is available for US$25 per 10-pound load and can be arranged during your stay.

SPA SERVICES

Spa treatments are available by appointment at our on-site garden spa. Treatments are priced separately and can be arranged through your butler.

EXCURSIONS AND ACTIVITIES

Admission charges for off-site attractions and excursions are not included in the villa rental.

TRANSPORTATION

Although there is plenty to enjoy at Mais Oui, most groups hire a private van and driver for airport transfers, excursions and sightseeing.

Typical daily transportation rates are:

• Up to 10 guests: US$200 per day when hired for two or more days, or US$250 for one day

• 11–20 guests: US$300 per day when hired for two or more days, or US$350 for one day

These rates cover up to eight hours of service, one tank of gas and travel along Jamaica’s north coast between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. Additional gas and travel outside this area cost extra. Transportation rates are subject to confirmation when booked.

EVENTS
Events are allowed only with prior written approval. The standard villa rental does not include event use.

The maximum number of attendees is 16, including registered overnight guests and approved visitors. On occasion, events involving up to 30 guests may be approved with prior written approval.

Weddings, birthday parties, family gatherings and other organized events require advance approval and may require a separate agreement. An additional site-use or event fee applies.

All outside guests require advance approval and a day pass. Outside vendors also require advance approval, payment of the applicable vendor fee and proof of insurance.

Please discuss all event plans with us before booking. Unauthorized parties, events, outside guests and vendors are not permitted.

We hope Mais Oui gives your group the space, service and time together you are looking for in Jamaica.

Think and dream Jamaica!

Best girls weekend retreat ever!

The pictures on the web site does not do the compound justice. It is an over the top amazing home! Immaculately well kept grounds, clean and comfy house, with multiple lounge spaces to relax in. We were 14 guests, ages 22-63, and everyone loved it and wants to go back. Every meal was delicious and fun, and the pool and nearby beaches were lovely. Just the right size. Owner Darrel was professional and responsive to all concerns right away. Just couldn't have been a better host!

20th wedding anniversary - treated like royalty!!!

Staff greeted us with smiles & cool towels. That set the stage for our trip. The villa was clean and welcoming. Audrey started the tour and introduced each couple to their sleeping quarters. The sleeping rooms are close to each other but yet super private. I wish I could articulate how fabulous the service and cuisine was. Dillon and Fernando made sure we never wanted for anything. The Chef surprised us with tasteful cuisine daily. The spa services, probably should be scheduled that near the end of your trip. It was fabulous!!!?We loved the Mais Oui experience!!

Best Birthday Celebration

We stayed at Mai’s Oui with a group of friends to celebrate my husband‘s 40th birthday. The hosts were so amazing leading up to the trip, helping me plan every detail of the weekend. And then, when we arrived at the house, we were all blown away with how attentive the staff was. Everything was absolutely amazing! the house was a perfect size and layout for the 8 couples in our group. The chef did a fabulous job preparing all of our meals. The butler was phenomenal at making sure everything was taken care of. The night of my husband’s birthday the staff went above and beyond my expectations planning an elegant dinner in the garden area. Our group got a lot of use out of the pool area, tennis court, and pickleball court. The hosts also helped set up massages on property for us. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay at Mais oui! I highly recommend this house and the exceptional staff/service!

A Slice of Heaven!

Mais Oui was stunning! I definitely recommend this for your stay. Communication and planning with Darrell was really smooth. From the moment we arrived to the day we left, our stay was great! The Villa is impressive. Large enough for a family of 12 (9 adults & 3 kids) to spread out but also intimate enough for each of the couples to have their own private moments. There were so many things to enjoy within the Villa grounds... From the swimming pool ( the kids headquarters!) to the basketball/ tennis court, foosball, ping pong, pool table, and wonderful spa area in the garden of the grounds.. it literally had everything we needed. The pictures don’t do it just and the views from the top lounge area, take your breath away. The staff.... so professional and super nice!! the attention to detail and service was impeccable. Our family was truly extended in Jamaica by such beautiful souls. From the moment we walked in the Villa, beautiful people greeted us and made us feel so welcomed, cared for, and comfortable. Dillion rules! We couldn’t wait to see what Perry cooked (Everything was delicious) or where Makeeva would take us to for meals. Everything was so thoughtful and well planned out. Ms Audrey & Ms Pett.. there are no words!!! You ladies are wonderful!! This was the first trip with just my sisters, their families and my mother and what a wonderful trip!! Thanks Mais Oui

STUNNING

This was by far the most amazing trip we have taken. From the moment we checked-in, Johnson, our Butler made us feel utterly special. This was a family trip with 16 of us, age ranging from 80 to 12. We had some picky eaters and some adventurous ones, along with a vegetarian. CeCe (our chef) and Johnson made sure there was something to eat for everyone. We were able to have dinner not only in the dining room, but on the lawn, second story veranda and the gazebo. We pretty much left our meal planning in their hands and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! The villa was spotless from day one. We barley had to lift a finger, maybe just to eat! There were so many activities, from playing pool, playing in the pool, soaking in the hot tub, foos ball, tennis, table tennis and basketball. We headed down to the small beach about 2 minutes walk with the kayaks and paddle boards. We also enjoyed their giant chess board on the second level deck, along with a large connect four. We very much enjoyed our down time as well, from browsing through their library of books, just relaxing in the egg chairs, and watching a movie in the outdoor theater. We were hooked up with Senior, from TripleS tours and he made sure all of our off property activities were not only booked, but made sure we arrived on time and safe. Darrell and Sherry put us in touch with a yacht cruise that was also spectacular! We were celebrating a very special 20th birthday and many were surprised with a fire dancer. Amazing! Nothing I can say will really do justice to the time we spent in Jamaica! I can't reccomend Mais Oui enough! Go!! you won't be disappointed. Just remember, leave the hustle and bustle behind... they are on "island time"

Had a great experience, the villa is beautiful like a grand home in the Caribbean but what made is perfection was the staff, Dillon, Chef Perry, Pat, Mac, Natesha and Brent.

Great experience at Mais Oui Villa

Fantastic property, perfect for our family vacation. Lots of options for activities onsite or just relax and read a book. The staff at Mais Oui are INCREDIBLE. They certainly made our stay a memorable one. Chef Perry created his magic in the kitchen and all our meals were outstanding. Dillon and Mack went above and beyond to make our stay the perfect holiday. The amazing staff make this villa experience exceptional. The only downside is the tennis courts need some repair, but we played around that and the villa is close to the road to Ocho Rios so sometimes the traffic was loud, but again, we got over that. Senior, the gentleman who provides the transfers as part of the villa experience was great. We used him a couple of days for excursion and he is a wealth of information about Jamaica and very proud of his country. He recommended The Blue Hole as an outing for us which was way better than Dunn's River Falls! All in all, a fantastic experience and would recommend the Mais Oui villa without hesitation to anyone!

Spoiled Beyond Our Imagination!!

This is our 8th Annual Thanksgiving Vacation...and I can't say enough about the owner Darrell who was very helpful in answering all my questions, setting me up with a photographer and Senior our transportation & guide!! Upon arrival, we were greeted with a cold towel and refreshing cocktails. The house was spotless with turndown service daily. Mack and our Chef coordinated meals that were very tasty. Dillion our house concierge did not miss a moment of checking in on everyone, making drinks, he even drove both my mothers' to the beach who weren't ready when we left. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating but they were not in our way at all. I highly recommend Senior for transportation - he provided extensive knowledge about the island, excursions, and he even grabbed dessert during our travels to the various excursions. I felt as if we became family during our stay! This was my 4th time in Jamaica and by far the best time ever. I am still receiving calls from my family expressing what a wonderful time everyone had. I would highly recommend this property, staff and Senior. Thank you all at Mais Oui !!! Browning Family 2019

Like Woah

So I have to thank the Owner and staff for a wonderful stay at Mais Oui Villa. I went in preparation for my wedding and had a rehearsal dinner there. It was a great stay, the place was clean and and well taken care of. My guests were impressed with the space and how helpful the Staff was. Dillon, Julie, and Mack along with the CHEF P, who put his foot in the food, were amazing along with all the other staff. My rehearsal dinner went great and even the staff tried to help alleviate my stress at times a a stress out bride. The driver Senior was also understanding and helpful that entire week as well. I would definitely stay again with a large party. The only sad part was the location which was 40 mins to an hour from Ocho Rios which seemed to have everything. It got expensive to travel to and from places but if you just want to enjoy jamaica on a paradise and stay in with a group or family this would be ideal. I wish i could pick it up and put it near ocho rios because it was way better than other villas i saw there. Overall a great experience with a very professional team of people to make us feel welcome to Jamaica. I was sad to leave and even disappointed when i went to a resort for our honeymoon and it could not compete with Mais oui. Thanks again for making it a special stay!

We are truly grateful for you all having chosen to stay with us at Mais Oui! The staff really enjoyed taking care of you and Chef Perry was pleased you all enjoyed his creations. Yes, traffic can get a bit hectic between us and Ocho Rios during the holidays, but that is the trade-off for our central location which allows guests to access so many activities on the island. We look forward to hosting you all on your return visit to the island! Think and dream Jamaica!

is 6 stars an option?

Mais Oui was absolutely incredible. Immaculate gardens, safe, secure, private property, amazing made-to-order food, friendly, considerate, in-house staff, very clean, large private pool. The staff took great care to make sure that we felt welcomed, safe, entertained, and comfortable, even accompanying us on off-site excursions. The complimentary beach club just up the road was a lot of fun and also safe, secure, and entertaining. We hope to be back soon. Family friendly (we brought a baby).

Perfect extended-family vacation spot!

This villa is beautiful and the staff are wonderful and personable. We had an amazing time celebrating our parents 50th wedding anniversary with 4 families. The villa is so spacious that everyone can spread out and do whatever they wish. Highly recommend!

Breath taking!!!

Several words come to mind, peaceful, fun, exciting, happy. The staff treated us like Kings and Queens from day one. But it was so much more then that , it was like we were family. This was our second time here and it’s always felt like our home away from home. On our last night the staff treated us with a air lantern tribute to my sister who passed away 3 years ago from breast cancer. She absolutely loved the villa on our first trip and vowed to come back. We had no idea this was planned. It just goes to show what an amazing staff that Mais Oui has. We will never forget that moment. Thank you sooo much. It was like She was here with us. If there is every a place you’re thinking about staying at this is the one. ❤️❤️

Stunning Villa that caters to all ages

I highly recommend this one of a kind villa that caters to all ages. The garden was very soothing and filled with beautiful flowers, plants, and fruits; the garden is labeled so it’s easy to identify the trees, plants, herbs, etc. the Chef utilizes the produce from the garden in the meals as well. The pool table was a hit for my family and the swimming pool was used every day. The staff keeps the villa and grounds extremely clean, decorated with fresh flowers, towel decorations as well. Bar, surround sound music, games for kids and adults, spa, outdoor shower and tub, movie theatre outside, private beach area with kayaks, staff that caters to your every need. There is really no need to leave the villa, they have everything imaginable to cater to ALL! The beds are very comfortable and set up to accommodate large families or single occupants per room. Best Villa in Jamaica!

About the host

Hosted by Darrell and Sherry

Host profile image
We are Sherry and Darrell, the owners of Mais Oui Villa.

Mais Oui is loosely pronounced “May we,” as in “May we help you?” Translated from French, it means “But, of course!” That spirit of service has guided the villa from the beginning.

For more than 25 years, we have welcomed families, friends and groups from around the world to Mais Oui. We created the villa because we wanted guests to experience Jamaica beyond the usual images of sun, sea, sand, rum, Rasta and reggae.

Jamaica is so much more. We enjoy sharing its food, history, art, natural beauty, people and culture with our guests. We also wanted to create a villa where groups could spend meaningful time together while being genuinely cared for.

As independent owners, we remain personally involved in the guest experience and work closely with our villa team before and during each stay. Mais Oui welcomes only one group at a time, allowing our staff to focus on that group’s needs.

Our hope is simple: that guests leave with wonderful memories of Jamaica, return to Mais Oui or recommend the villa to people they care about.

We are passionate about Jamaica, proud of the team we have built and would love the opportunity to welcome you to Mais Oui.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location because it offers the combination we wanted for Mais Oui: privacy, sea views, nearby beaches and a central position on Jamaica’s north coast.

The villa sits on a private one-acre property overlooking Rio Bueno Harbour. Guests have two beaches within a two- to three-minute walk: one public beach and one shared private beach. Puerto Seco Beach Club in Discovery Bay is approximately five minutes away by car, and Mais Oui guests receive access through our villa membership.

Discovery Bay is located between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, approximately 45–50 minutes from Sangster International Airport and 30–35 minutes from Ocho Rios. This makes it easy for guests to enjoy horseback riding, river rafting and tubing, waterfalls, caves, gardens, water sports, golf, historic sites and other north-coast experiences without spending every vacation day traveling long distances.

The area also has a rich history. From the villa’s roof deck, guests can look across Rio Bueno Harbour and see historic landmarks along the coastline.

What we enjoy most is the balance. Guests have the privacy and space to enjoy the villa, with beaches, attractions and Jamaica’s north coast within easy reach whenever they want to explore.

What makes this property unique

What makes Mais Oui distinctive is not one feature. It is the combination of space, privacy, personal service and activities that allows groups of different ages and interests to enjoy one vacation together.

• One group at a time: The entire 8-bedroom villa and grounds are reserved exclusively for your group of 8–16 guests.

• Fully staffed service: Your private chef, butler, housekeeping team and grounds staff care for the villa and your group throughout your stay.

• Pre-arrival concierge support: We help with menus, groceries, airport transportation, excursions, celebrations and other details before you arrive.

• A vacation for the person who organized it: With meals prepared and the villa cared for, the person who brought everyone together does not have to spend the trip cooking, coordinating and handling every detail.

• Activities for different generations: The villa offers a saltwater pool, hot tub, tennis, pickleball, basketball, volleyball, miniature golf, mini-disc golf, billiards, table tennis, foosball, kayaks, a paddleboard, outdoor movies, karaoke, a fire pit and more than 40 board games.

• Beaches within walking distance: Guests can walk to two nearby beaches, including one public beach and one shared private beach. Access to Puerto Seco Beach Club is also included through our villa membership.

• Wellness at the villa: Guests can enjoy customized meals, tropical fruits and herbs grown on the property, an exercise room and optional treatments at our on-site garden spa.

• Licensed and safety conscious: Mais Oui is licensed and inspected by the Jamaica Tourist Board and has gated access, smoke and carbon-monoxide detectors, security cameras and fire extinguishers.

Mais Oui is designed for families and groups who want to stay together, be well cared for and have plenty to enjoy without needing to leave the property every day.
