About this property

Rustic 2BR Cottage Escape | Poolside Tropical Living for 4 + Beach Access

Welcome to Casas de Tierra Jamaica, where natural design, tropical surroundings, and laid-back island living come together.

This private 2-bedroom cottage is located alongside the shared pool and offers a comfortable base for couples, families, or friends traveling together. With two bedrooms, inviting indoor-outdoor spaces, and the pool just outside, it's a place to settle into the easygoing rhythm of island life while having plenty of room to relax between adventures.

Rustic Adobe-Style Character

Vanda Cottage isn't a typical vacation rental. This cottage showcases our signature rustic adobe-style architecture, with earthen finishes crafted using local soil and stone, natural materials, reclaimed wood, and handcrafted furnishings.

The design creates a natural connection between the cottage and its tropical surroundings, giving the space warmth, texture, and character.

Every cottage on the property is individually designed, so your stay feels personal and distinctive rather than like a room in a standard hotel.

Poolside Tropical Living

The shared pool is located directly alongside the cottage, making pool time an easy part of your stay. Take a refreshing swim, lounge outdoors, or enjoy the tropical surroundings as you settle into the laid-back atmosphere of Casas de Tierra.

The property is filled with palms, exotic flowers, tropical plants, and fruit trees. When available, guests may also enjoy seasonal fruits and vegetables from our home garden.

It's a place to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy a slower, more relaxed side of island living.

Designed for Time Together

With two bedrooms, this cottage is well suited for families or friends who want to experience Jamaica together while still having a private cottage of their own.

Spend your days exploring the north coast, head to the beach, enjoy local restaurants and attractions, then come back to the property for a swim and time together outdoors.

A Personal Touch

Our home is also located on the property, so we're nearby when you need assistance, local recommendations, or a little insight into the area.

Conveniently Located in Runaway Bay

The property is centrally located near the main road, making it convenient to explore Runaway Bay and surrounding areas of St. Ann. Nearby beaches, restaurants, local shops, and attractions are all within easy reach, giving you a convenient home base for discovering the north coast.

Come for the tropical surroundings. Stay for the character. Leave with memories of a uniquely Jamaican experience.

At Casas de Tierra, you can unwind, reconnect with nature, enjoy poolside living, and experience the laid-back rhythm of island life from a cottage built with character.
