Tranquility Estate - Your Idyll In The Hustle And Bustle Of Kingston
About this condo rental
Nestled in Kingston, this lovely condo for $165 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Tranquility Estate has been our home for the last 15 years – first as a holiday getaway and now as a permanent residence. It is one of the most beautiful homes in Kingston, in the exclusive area of Jacks Hill. We offer bed and breakfast facilities in the main house only. We have a self contained studio that sleeps 2. The house sits on three levels, the main house containing 4 bedroom. A self-contained studio apartment which overlooks the swimming pool at the lower level. The property covers just under 6,000 sq. ft and our Mediterranean style house is built of red bricks and mahogany with cool black marble floor throughout. The Estate sits on 12 acres of Jamaican hillside and offers 320° views of Kingston, the surrounding hills and mountains and is the last house at the end of a private road. When you’re on the veranda, you can choose the dazzling views of Kingston or the serenity of the hills and mountains. We have a terraced garden, home to the ever blooming Bougainvillea, avocados, oranges, and lime trees along with our bee hives. One of my many skills is that I am a trained Cordon Bleu cook, who loves to do just that. In addition to cooking, I love all kinds of music, the theatre, travel, culture, reading and collecting books, politics and my most favourite – people. At present, I work with the gardeners with the clear aim of turning the Estate into one of self-sufficiency, so that in time we will produce we will produce most of the food eaten on the Estate. It is a very exciting time! We have planted bananas, tomatoes, okra, yams, cassava, potatoes, sweet potatoes, red peas, gungo peas, spinach, callaloo, pumpkin and watermelons – no small task! The Estate already has growing 7 types of mango, grapefruit, lychees, oranges, limes, coconut, avocado pear, soursop and other fruits and vegetables. If you would like a tour of the grounds (and you have strong boots and a good head for heights) just ask me and we will provide you a walking stick and show you around. I look forward to sharing my home with you and I’ll do everything possible to ensure you enjoy your stay.

Well, what a wonderful place to stay up on "the hill". Superb views, excellent room, wonderful house and a fantastic host. I stayed for 5 nights and felt very welcome from the minute I arrived. Lorna is living the dream and soaking up the views on a daily basis :)
Highly recommend staying here and don't be put off by the hill location - it's a 10 minute drive down to Kingston and Lorna has a plethora of friendly taxi drivers she can recommend if you're not driving - "Evening Chris" is brilliant.
I'll definitely be staying there again when next in Kingston as I have to try more of the wonderful Jamaican food :)
Thank you Lorna.

My family and I stayed here and we had a really great time. The room was beautiful and it was great having a separate bed for my son! The views were breath-taking and Lorna was the consummate host. Brutus, her dog was very friendly with our son and they had some fun playing fetch in the driveway! The food she cooked was sublime, some of the best Caribbean food I've had. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

My husband and I had a lovely stay here, it was the perfect romantic getaway being up in the hills from the noise of Kingston. We ate out for dinner but if the dinner we had is anything like the breakfast that Lorna cooked us, we should have had dinner with her too! We had an amazing typical Jamaican breakfast of ackee and saltfish, johnny cakes (I think they're called!), boiled banana, which was new to us and callaloo. The room itself was gorgeous, and decorated to hotel standards. Lorna was a very gracious and welcoming host and we shared a rum punch on the balcony after our dinner. It was a wonderful experience. Thanks for having us!
