Destiny
Billy's Bay, Treasure Beach, Jamaica

Destiny is a dramatic 5-bedroom beachfront villa on the hillside, above the fishermen’s beach in quiet Billy's Bay, Treasure Beach. It is elevated for optimal sea views and privacy and sits on top 3/4's of a mile of untrammeled beach that is only reachable by gated pathways.

Destiny was completely renovated in the fall of 2022 inside and out with premium finishes, a new infinity pool, an expanded deck with multiple sitting areas to gaze out to the Caribbean Sea, as well as a 5th rooftop bedroom.

Destiny provides sweeping staircases, inside & out, inspiring views, and always the sound of the waves. Gaze out to sea from the infinity pool and deeply shaded portico. Up on the roof are 2-bedrooms with access to a spacious "sun & moon lounge" providing a 360-degree view of the breathtaking sea and mountain skylines which invites sunbathing, dining, sunset & star-gazing -- or just curling up with a good book.

Off the seaside portico and infinity pool is a spacious living room with scrolling hand-wrought ironwork doors, walls inlaid with glass, and comfy, inviting oversized furniture designed specifically for the house.

Destiny is a perfect getaway for 1-11 guests with 5 artful screened windows, A/C bedrooms, and 5 ensuite baths. Modern kitchen with new appliances, updated music/DVD/TV system, and WiFi connection for BYOB laptops.

There is also a large, sunny, fresh water, in-ground swimming pool and sunbathing area to the side of the villa. It is surrounded by comfortable lounge chairs, thatch shaded area, outside shower, 1/2 bathroom, mature trees, and manicured grounds with sea views.

Destiny's full-time staff, NADINE, GIRLIE, and CHINNY will accommodate your every need. NADINE prepares local cuisine and/or continental food for your breakfast and dinner (lunch can be purchased at Ki’s On Di Beach, bar/restaurant, a 3-minute walk from Destiny). GIRLIE is the housekeeper and assists NADINE. CHINNY is your go-to maintenance, pool, grounds, and security man.

Villa Reviews:

“We visited Destiny Villa for our 25th Anniversary trip.

To start out, Nicole is far more than an AirBnB host; she's really a trip concierge. She planned our airport pickup, including setting up a three-way WhatsApp chat with the driver so everything was arranged before we left.

A week or so ahead of our trip, we received the menu options so we could plan the first few days of breakfasts, dinners and beverages. This allowed the staff to purchase food & drinks ahead of time and have them all set for our arrival.

Nicole communicated exactly how much cash to bring for each step of the way (so we didn’t need to pay local ATM fees).

The transportation was as low-stress as possible. Driving on Jamaican roads is a bit hectic for those used to US roads, but the drivers Nicole arranged were very adept a negotiating the traffic.

Arriving at Destiny, we were met by the staff, Nadine, Girly & Randy. Randy quickly loaded our luggage into the room we chose, while Nadine & Girly gave us the tour and helped us get settled.

Randy was there early each morning cleaning the pools and tidying the grounds. Nadine asked about our preferences for breakfast time and whether we wanted coffee or tea in the morning. Each day, Nadine and Girly arrived a couple of hours before breakfast to cook and serve. They cleaned the house and the bedroom while we ate, then left mid-day. They also washed and folded laundry as needed.

Nadine and Girly would arrive back a couple of hours before dinner to cook and serve, then leave for the night after cleanup.

The house was beautifully decorated and very clean. We felt very safe at all times.

One great part of Destiny is the number of ocean views to stare at. Nadine offered to move the table to eat at a variety of spots on the property (by the infinity pool, by the big pool, on the rooftop patio).

We spent most of our days just sitting by or in the infinity pool, relaxing. We enjoyed floating in the pool, staring at the ocean, relaxing and reading. (there is a large JBL Bluetooth speaker). The sun is very strong, so plenty of sunscreen is a must. There is bug spray in the villa and the bugs came out for a little while just after sunset.

We also enjoyed lounging on the rooftop patio at night, looking at the stars.

One of the biggest highlights of our time at Destiny was a couples massage on the patio (with the noise from ocean waves in the background - Nicole recommended Joshua Stein to us).

The bedrooms are very nice with local Jamaican touches. If you want to watch TV, be prepared that many streaming services from the US limit what content you can access outside of the US. Netflix worked great. Hulu doesn't work at all.

Nadine was fantastic and took excellent care of all our needs (my wife experienced some GI issues during the time at Destiny. Nadine took a trip to get medication and was very caring with my wife).

The meals were a great representation of homemade Jamaican food and desserts. There was usually enough leftover food from dinner to eat for lunch the next day. Nadine was kind enough to teach us her recipes and even bought spices for us to take home. She also made us extra Gizzada & Sweet Potato Pone to bring home.

One morning, a vendor stopped by with a van full of gifts, Jamaican clothing, etc. This was very convenient because we didn't need to go shopping anywhere else for local gifts to bring home.

We have stayed at many vacation rentals and cannot recommend Nicole & Destiny highly enough! We had an amazing time there.”

“It's a vibe!

What is your Destiny? Is it your destiny to feel a part of a global community? Is your destiny to enjoy farm-to-table meals? Is your destiny to fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves? Is it your destiny to unplug from the world and try to reconnect with yourself or your partner? Is your destiny to get away from the typical tourist area? If so, Destiny Villa is the vacation for you!

Destiny is a beautiful villa off the beaten path of your typical Jamaica vacation, it is 2.5 hours from Montego Bay. Don't fret the amazing property concierge, Nicole, will arrange your transportation with Uan, an amazing person with a heart of gold. He will get you wherever you need to go during your stay safely, with some great facts and stories along the way.

Every meal prepared was fresh and delicious, and the home is kept impeccable during your entire stay. The details the owner included in the beautiful embedded glass artwork in the walls make you feel like you are staying in an artist's villa. Next door, is an amazing beach bar with the best bartender in Treasure Beach. The owner of the villa went above and beyond to make sure this was the most memorable vacation ever. Thank you, for making my birthday feel like a true celebration by inviting us to local parties and the beach bonfires.

If you want to feel like you are a part of a special community, take time to heal, and reconnect with YOU; I highly suggest you book Destiny Villa. This is now a yearly healing retreat for us. I cannot wait to share the magic of Treasure Beach and the Destiny Villa with the people I love.”

We had the most wonderful holiday family vacation. We enjoyed Nikki and Ritchie's hospitality and care and Nikki's cooking - her fried chicken is the best in the area. The villa is beautiful and our family enjoyed the beach and the pool and lots of activities recommended by Nicole. We woke up every day to a beautiful sunrise and views of the ocean. The sunsets in Treasure Beach are magnificent and it’s truly a "treasure" as you will feel like you have the beach all to yourself. I recommend trips to Jake's for lunch and drinks, snorkeling on Sunny Island, a day trip to the Black River and a trip to YS Falls and the Appleton Rum Estate. We can't wait to return.”

I love this place. It's clean and beautiful, just as advertised! I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is visiting Treasure Beach. Nicole was very detailed with everything from the check-in to the check-out process. It's a great value considering the lovely accommodations.
The staff, Nikki and Richie were awesome!! They provided excellent service, cooked and took care of all our needs. We felt very comfortable and settled in immediately. I will definitely visit again.”

"Wow!!!!!! what an amazing beautiful tranquil place. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves, and wake up to the beautiful sunrise. Enjoy the gorgeous ocean view and beautiful sunsets and bright stars. The rooftop, what a site from up above, clear view of the ocean and the night sky. It was truly a magical place. The staff were so welcoming and treated us like family. Amazing food, small local shops and just all-around friendly and happy people. Thank you for making our stay exceptional."

"This was the perfect way to get a sense of the real Jamaica. From the gorgeous ocean views/sounds, the night sky and sunsets to getting to know the locals and participating in the community. The staff were exceptional and welcoming. They were a source of local information and an insight to Jamaican traditions and foods. The fishermen in the bay beside us added another dimension and we were able to get fresh fish for dinner. The meals prepared by Nikki were delicious - including lobster, snapper, curried goat and other delicacies. Destiny is a tranquil and beautiful spot. With such a large property we were very content to spend most of our time roaming around, swimming and generally relaxing. Although there are many options for the more adventurous. We highly recommend this gem of a place."

"I had the most luxurious and tranquil vacation courtesy of the Destiny in Treasure Beach. Staying at Destiny was simply paradise. I enjoyed sunset dinners from the rooftop patio with a clear view of the ocean and the night sky. Every morning I woke up to the smashing of the waves and the sweet sound of the Jamaican birds. These must be the birds Bob Marley sings about! The property is lined with beautiful tropical and fruit trees. The staff is generous and kind and treated me with warm Jamaican hospitality. Every day I would swim in the therapeutic ocean and chat with the local fisherman. I would get my fresh vegetables from Mr. and Mrs. Brown and I would get my fresh fish from Mr. Hill. By the end of my amazing stay I felt relaxed, peaceful and re-energized. On a scale of one to five, I would rate Destiny a six! I love the Luna House!"

”This is is my home away from home. My family has visited Treasure Beach many times and we always stay here. My favorite part of the house is the amazing rooftop patio where you watch the gorgeous sunset and see hundreds of stars. My stay was nothing short of perfect! The staff feel like family and they are very helpful. They also prepared delicious meals. During our stay, we lounged at the private pool, took long walks on the beach, picked fruit from the trees in the yard, went on a boat tour to Pelican Bar and Sunny Island and enjoyed getting to know true Jamaica. The local fisherman brought us some of their daily catch. We savored snapper fish, kingfish and lobster! We also visited some of the nearby attractions, including YS Falls and the Black River tour. We look forward to returning to our all-time favorite vacation destination!"
