I cannot say enough about the exemplary service and fine people I met at Polkerris!! It was a true slice of heaven served with class! All of our needs were met with island charm.
So close to everything, yet away from the hustle and bustle. The property is pristine.

The accommodation was superb, staff was friendly, the large breakfast and was sooo tasty and fresh. First class bed and breakfast place.
Water pressure. They have no control over that.

The hotel is beautiful with stunning views. It’s small so it feels like a private home, and more intimate. The breakfast was delicious! Loved the fish and local fruits and dishes. Crystal was so attentive to our needs and the Lady of the home was always welcoming and eager to assist us navigate our times and activities.
We were a group of three women so at night we felt somewhere unsafe walking back and forth from property. Although it’s in the heart of the strip, it’s tucked away in a long dark alley. At night, part of the alley is pitch black which is a little scary when you can’t see. Wish there were more road lights. One night, one of the men who lives nearby called out to us with unwanted comments which made us girls feel uneasy and a little frightened. As a result, we didn’t venture out too much at night as we worried about walking back to hotel by ourselves in the pitch black.

Secluded, yet walking distance to the stripe and restaurants. Staff was very professional and friendly, made me feel comfortable, and the authentic Jamaican breakfasts were off the change.
Although things were in walking distance, walking when it’s dark and the streets aren’t well lit, limited my going out sometimes after dark, unless coordinating transportation.

Clarisa and Jeremy are wonderful hosts; Shirlette and the ladies are the best hostesses and our breakfasts each day were amazing. You can choose between a variety of American or Jamaican dishes, always a lovely fresh fruit platter to start. This is a fabulous quiet location and due to the property size, you are not sharing the pool(s) with hundreds, in fact we had the pool to ourselves each day. The view from the balcony is stunning and even when it rained it was so relaxing to sit on the balcony and watch it come down, perfectly sheltered but still with a view. The walk to the main road is about 5 minutes so easy access to restaurants.
Not the host's fault, but the road down to the main road could be better lit for night time. Just for security reasons, but this is Jamaica all over sadly, a little run down. Water and ice is provided in the rooms which is wonderful, but a kettle would just make it perfect so you can make your own tea or coffee.

The Panzio is inside-outside decorated with a very good taste. The owner and his wife taking care for the hosted people with extreme attention and friendly behaviour. The breakfast gives a good overview about the Jamaican kitchen, but regular breakfast is offered besides, if someone would not want dive into the local tastes.

The breakfast was all you could hope for: tons of fresh fruit and either American or Jamaican breakfast. The view from the property is pure Jamaican magic. The staff was very attentive without being overbearing. It must be the best place for the money, Arthur Frommer was correct. xo
Jamaica is Jamaica: the best and the worst in terms of visuals. Not the fault of the Inn.

Great view of the sea. Nice pool, great room and food. Staff very friendly
A bit overpriced as a hotel not on beach. You need to walk a few hundred meters and pay 15 usd to go on Doctor's cave beach. Other beaches nearby didn't look decent - no facilities. The road nearby didn't feel very safe as many guys tried to talk to me. One night WiFi completely went off

Wonderful breakfasts. Attentive staff. Great accommodation and common areas. Beautiful sunset view from the balcony.

Peter and Elaine were welcoming and so accommodating during our visit. Peter helped us secure transportation for attractions we wanted to see and told us of others we had overlooked. They definitely made the experience more enjoyable than handling everything on our own.

We enjoyed all the breakfast food! It was nice to get traditional Jamaican breakfast. The property was in a very good location with easy access to two beaches. The landscaping and flowers on the property were gorgeous. The property also had a game room that provided entertainment during the rainy afternoons. The staff was very warm and friendly. We really enjoyed their calm presence and they handled every request and question with the same patience and chill.

Review of Polkerris
Very much enjoyed staying at Polkerris: 1) the view was amazing, 2) exceptionally tasty authentic Jamaican breakfast 3) the helpfulness of Peter and Elaine, 4) several layers of security, 5) appreciated the location for the exceptional ability to immerse myself in the Jamaican culture, 6) exceptionally clean and fresh smelling accommodations, 7) the hosts have several government approved licensed taxi services that they work with, for door to door service, so you can easily limit your interaction with the local culture if that is not your thing.
Excursions/Adventures
Every morning during breakfast Peter takes the time to chat with you and help you arrange whatever you are interested in. There are two options available a private driver/tour guide/car for the day. I paid $200 as an individual. You can also book tours, this will include other tourist with the tour bus picking up at several hotels; averaging about $189 per person.
Michael – the main driver/guide used by Polkerris, has room for 7 plus passengers in his mini-bus. Picked me up at 11 am and returned back by 10 pm (note I was the only one). Michael is familiar with the entire island and will fit in several fun activities for your group (or just you or you and your significant other) for a day trip. Michael knows guides and people at all the attractions so can arrange for the best experience once you arrive. Note: attractions seem to average $ 20 USD admission and please do use and tip the guides at the attractions generously as this is their only source of income (and they are government certified and licensed).
I liked it all, so continuing my review from above down here.
I arrived late at Luminous Lagoon, after the tours were over and Michael was able to arrange a tour for me anyway saying “I know the staff and they respect me”. Good to have a tour guide that is plugged into a network of locals.
Good heart
Having a good heart, a good attitude, being slow deliberate and confident and not scared goes a long way. I had a beautiful time interacting and focusing all my attention on the local Jamaican people. I immersed myself in the culture, ate the Jamaican food, got to know lots of local Jamaicans, went to the Jamaican stores, shops, restaurants, clubs and stayed away from the tourist areas. This is not for everyone. If you want to insulate yourself it is easy to do at Polkerris as well. Just ask Peter to set you up with a driver and you can door to door for everything – right from Polkerris to any tourist spot or attraction that you want.
For me, life is all about experiences and people. Enjoy your travels, you are in good hands with Peter and Elaine and Polkerris.

The breakfast at Polkerris was arguably the favorite part of my entire trip. The room was spacious and clean, and the entire staff including the owners were very pleasant to interact with. I received special guest service at The Pelican, a family restaurant that’s been in operation by the same owners for the past 50+ years. The whole place is so therapeutically relaxing.
It was a bit difficult to get ahold of the staff at times, including when I was locked out. Detailed written instructions would be nice. The location is hidden away and thus a bit confusing to find at first (you can’t rely on Google Maps), especially at night. But these are minor issues compared to all the positives!

We had an amazing stay and didnt want to leave! The beautiful view, the friendly staff, the delicious breakfasts, all the flowers, the pool, the cat, the shower, the list goes on and on. And on nights we wanted to stay in bed they had netflix which is always a bonus.
walking up from the main street wasnt too bad but it was kinda dark at night so might be smart to bring a flashlight, although we had no trouble at the end of the day. i honestly cant think of a bad thing to say about our stay!

Breakfast was outstanding, the property is well maintained, and the view is breathtakingly outstanding with beautiful sunsets and a view of the pier. The internet is exceptional, and we were able to walk into town from a walking path in the back of the house which was very convenient and safe. we would definitely return to this beautiful property.

YThe home is beautiful and very clean and comfortable. The pool is pristine and there is such a beautiful and the view of the blue/green water is incredible.
All of this pales to the kindness and helpfullness of Peter and Elaine. Breakfast was incredible... allow them to give you the authentic Jamacian breakfast. ( You'll never want cornflakes or a donut again!😉)
We were able to walk to the beaches, each about 10 minutes away. Along the walk we found shops and restaurants. Finding a taxi is easy if you want transportation.
Peter will assist in planning excursions.
We would not hesitate to stay again.
If you want a beach right outside your room, not the place.

Peter and Elaine were excellent hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Peter even took us back to the airport himself when the taxi didn't turn up. The breakfast was excellent, a choice of Jamaican or International cooked and prepared to order.
