Great Huts is great. But make sure you know what you are booking. This is not a hotel. It is kinda hard to explain, but cool cabins? We stayed in 5 nights the Queen of Sheba, with two small kids (4 and 7). And they loved it. The whole place is really cool, with loads of small, interesting things. Staff is great. It feels very safe. Two very nice pools. Some notes: There are no windows, just holes in the wall. So suddenly you might get 4 legged visitors (the cat liked our snacks it seems… And as there are no windows, there is no aircon, only fans. And hot water is periodic at best. And you have to request, otherwise they don’t enter your room/hut/cabin. And mosquitos could be an issue. The kids were all eaten up by something one morning. Luckily it didn’t itch at all. They have a private area by the sea, which is very nice, but it is not a beach. So if your kids like playing in the water, it is not ideal. There is sand, and there is water, but a rocky entrance to the water. And the sea is a bit rough here. We did some snorkelling, which was decent, but not great. Saw some rays/turtles, but again, rough waters, so be careful. We found the restaurant to be too expensive, and mostly ate at the jerk centre which is just 50m down the road. But breakfast was good, although be prepared for a bit of a wait when 1 cook is cooking by order to everyone. Overall we would recommend Great Huts as a super place to base yourselves in Portland.

This place was beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was looking for to relax with my husband. The staff was incredible- went above and beyond for any need. I miss each and every one of them! The grounds and accommodations were fabulous. Rustic, and back to nature- make sure you have running shoes- this is not a place to wear fancy footwear. Bring your deet if you’re prone to bug bites (like me). I faired pretty well, considering. The food was good too- and the complimentary breakfast starts your day off right. Do your research, be prepared, and you will enjoy the beauty surrounding you. One love.

Had a nice stay. Great concept which was unique and fun. However the site was rundown and needed a lot more maintenance. There was no outside dining so breakfast or lunch was rather dark but evening atmospheric. Very few outside chairs to watch the sun or admire the views. We liked swimming in the bay. We stayed in 2 different huts. Queen Nyabinghi was approached by 10 very steep external stairs not shown in the photos. A great resort if you are after something unusual and off the beaten track. Tasty food. Great breakfasts.

This property and staff team are amazing,so much so that I booked an additional two nights. I will be writing a full review when I leave.

I loved it! Amazing experience. The property is stunning

As “hotels” go Great Huts really is unique. Huge site with its own private beach, rocks, hammocks etc. Quirky individual “rooms” of varying shapes & sizes “in the jungle” We stayed in Iqbo in the Africanerhouse. With aircon and effectively a private swimming pool. Super friendly staff. Made to order breakfasts. Nice dining facilities too. Outstanding, totally outstanding, jerk food within walking distance.

It's not clean at all

Never lived in a treehouse before. It was fun to live in a tree and see that terrific sunrise. The meals tasted good but I expected them too be cheaper. Very helpful staff, they got me a bus to go to Montego Bay and a driver to get me to the bus. There assistance was vital.
