Treasure Beach is a small fishing village on the south coast of Jamaica where you can find privacy and natural beauty. Exotic guest rooms are cooled with ocean breeze and ceiling fans. There is no air conditioning, phones or televisions.
If you are planning a honeymoon, Jake’s also offers Treasure Cot, an air conditioned two bedroom, two bathroom villa. The villa, a five-minute walk from Jake’s, includes a housekeeper/cook.
The hotel has a saltwater pool and a pool bar run by a native Jamaican who keeps the bar open until the last guest leaves the pool.
Nearby vacation activities include snorkeling, fishing, canoeing, swimming and kayaking. The resort can also arrange tours around the island.
Two restaurants serve authentic Jamaican cuisine with an emphasis on seafood. Jake’s oceanfront restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. Jack Sprat, located on the beach, serves sandwiches, pizzas, salads, fresh baked desserts and ice cream.
