Sweet spot is a fabulous villa with lots of character. It has a fabulous pool area and a large garden for kids to play in. It also has direct access onto a gorgeous beach. Danny the butler, Rose and the rest of the staff were wonderful and we got the warmest welcome. As a guest of the villa we had access to the Jewel golf course which was just across the road from the villa.
Welcome to Sweet Spot on the Beach, a luxury 6 bedroom beachfront villa located in the beautiful Runaway Bay.
Villa Sweet Spot lives up to its name as its remarkable location offers the best of both worlds. This 6,000-square-foot private heavenly home is elegantly perched on a wide sandy beach with a long large lawn.

At Sweet Spot, you will always have a breathtaking Caribbean sea view as its stunning French doors open wide onto your private terrace. All the stylish bedrooms are air-conditioned and have flat-screen TVs. You may wish to leave your doors open at night to fall asleep to the lullaby of lapping waves on the beach.

The DSS satellite system offers news, sports, movies, family and children's programming plus several music stations. You will find the garden of your dreams in your own private large lawn lush in colourful hibiscus, bougainvillaea, shrimp flowers, oleander, banana trees and stately coconut palms. The lawn is a great playground for badminton, croquet and volleyball ... or a paradise for napping in the hammock in the shade of the beautiful Cassia Fistula tree with its beautiful cascading bunches of yellow flowers.
A magical spot for water sports lovers lies beyond the lawn - a 10,000-square-foot beach, clear water and excellent reef just 50 feet offshore. Sea kayaks and snorkelling equipment are complimentary. As a special evening treat, the wonderful staff will plan a poolside barbecue ... with chicken, ribs, chops, fish or lobster ... or a night-time bonfire on the beach if you wish!

This villa is a beachfront home. It should be noted that beaches change their shape and size from day to day, week to week and month to month, mainly as a response to seasonal waves, currents and tides. Every effort has been made to depict the beach in front of this property, but temporary changes may occur.
Distances:
• Town: 5 minutes to town of Runaway Bay; 25 minutes to Ocho Rios via driver
• Airport: 70 minutes
Ocho Rios, which is located 54 miles north of Kingston, is built around a wide bay with a sweeping arc of hotel lined beach. It is well geared to meet the cruise passengers who are often present. The chief attraction is Island Village which is located at the far west end of Main Street. It is a slick collection of shops, restaurants and bars with a private beach and a great museum called the Reggae Xplosion which is dedicated completely to Reggae – Jamaica’s best know export! The museum even includes a night club where guides demonstrate the latest moves. There are lots of wonderful things to do in and around Ocho Rios including:
Shaw Park Botanical Gardens
Located 550 feet above the sea, the gardens have beautiful views of Ocho Rios and are home to many rare plants and trees as well as a very pretty waterfall.
Coyaba River Garden
Also with wonderful views, Coyaba Garden’s are more compact than Shaw Park with paths threading past ponds and streams. It also has an interesting museum dedicated to local history.
Dolphin Cove & Dunn's River Falls
Just west of Ocho Rios is probably Jamaica’s most famous attraction – the Dunn’s River Falls. It is a magnificent cascade of multiple tiers pouring over smooth limestone rocks, encircled by interesting ferns and foliage and ending at a beautiful cove with white sands and crystal clear waters. There is also a great reef offshore and therefore it’s well worth bringing some snorkelling gear.
Climbing up the falls is the thing to do. When you enter you can take a guide who will assist you in finding an easy route up. Remember to wear a swimsuit and also gym shoes as you will undoubtedly be drenched by the time you reach the top! Dunn’s Falls is quite touristy and developed (it can get busy when the cruise ships come in) with plenty of car parking and a large craft market at the end but it’s well worth a visit.
Practically opposite Dunn’s River is Dolphin Cove which is a kind of Mini-theme Park which provides the opportunity to swim with dolphins and stingrays. You will also get an opportunity to get up close and personal with macaws, snakes, iguanas and goats.
Green Grotto Caves
Located 22 miles west of Ocho Rios on the main road between The Runway and Discovery Bay, The Green Grotto is an extensive range of limestone caverns with a subterranean lake and plenty of impressive stalactites and stalagmites. The history of Green Grotto is really interesting as they were originally used by the Amerindians as a place of worship and later as a hideout by Spanish troops.
Mystic Mountain
Located close to Ocho Rios Mystic Mountain is definitely one of the top attractions in Jamaica. There is a really good cable car ride, a zip line, Mystic water slide, infinity-edge pool, bobsled track and a restaurant with a great view of the Bay of Ocho Rios! It’s really well done and great for the adventurous at heart.
Bob Marley Center & Mausoleum
Located 25 miles south-west of Ocho Rios, high in the St Ann hills amongst a gorgeous landscape of grassy cattle pastures, lies the Bob Marley museum where he was born and spent his early childhood before he moved to Kingston at the age of 13. With a rasta red, gold and green flag flapping in the wind, the compound is centred around the tiny wooden shack where the Marley’s lived. The mausoleum itself is a simple whitewashed building holding Bob Marley’s tomb.
