Blue Marlin - Treasure Beach, Jamaica
 
 
 
Facing sunset, the long sandy beach you see here is the largest and most private of any in Treasure Beach, or for that matter, on the entire South Coast. Sheltered and protected by Great Pedro Bluff that rises before you, the waters are calm and ideal for children.

Profiled dramatically against the Santa Cruz Mountains, on 2.5 acres of mature gardens and lawns that gently cascade down to the edge of the beach, BLUE MARLIN and COQUINA are hidden away -- yet just an 8 minute drive from Calabash Bay and the center of Treasure Beach. Good reason they're two of the most favored villas in all Treasure Beach for the past 30 years. Rent BLUE MARLIN or COQUINA (or both together) for a great getaway for 1 to 16 guests. Couples, friends, larger or multi-family groups are all perfectly accomodated here. You'll be well-pampered by a very gracious and welcoming staff who will quickly help you forget the pace of life you left behind. And in more than one sense, you might find yourself travelling back in time...

ESCAPE TO THE PAST

Over 10 centuries ago, sailing up from Venezuela, some of Jamaica's earliest peoples, the Taino, chose this very spot to settle, as evidenced by the rare collection of carved stones, shells and artifacts showcased at BLUE MARLIN and COQUINA. Pirates, the Spanish, the British came too, as evidenced by a terracotta urn and a seaward-pointing cannon on the grounds. Explore well-tended tropical gardens of cacti, succulents, frangipani, hibiscus -- all around you is a rich greenness rarely found in these parts.

Laze away in hammocks under a thatched trulli hut at oceanside, with nary a care. Stroll along a beach virtually yours all alone, save for local fishermen, coming in late in the day with a bounty of fish and seafood line-caught off the Pedro Cays. Life changes little here. Which is exactly why yours might well be altered.

BLUE MARLIN is well-shaded and situated to catch ocean breezes. Every room has a ceiling or in-wall fan. View the sea and the beach from the verandah and living room through louvered windows and foldback doors. The dining room features a three-pedestal Jamaican antique mahogany table that seats 14 -- plus, a trophy blue marlin mounted above a showcase of locally-found shells. There are also two outdoor dining areas, one under an arbor, for casual breakfast, lunch or dinner al fresco. Your cooks, Sally and Derry, are highly-rated by guests.
