Geejam

Rooms

The exquisite Rumba studios pay homage to the nature of Jamaica with seamlessly blended light interiors and wooden accents to marry the natural world to the modern. Rooms are on the ground or first floor and have either verdant jungle or expansive ocean views. Spacious en suite bathrooms come complete with expansive rainfall showers, freestanding deep soaker bathtubs and double sinks. All guest rooms have large beds, pull-out sofas, TVs, air conditioning, mini fridges, WI-FI and modern amenities.

Individually designed guest cabins are named after Jamaican music genres and bring nature inside with dark tiles, white walls and wooden furnishings. The fold out windows over the deep bathtub, create a magical outdoor bathing experience and a Jacuzzi sits on a delightful wooden terrace with panoramic views over the ocean. Two of the cabins are perched high in the canopy as treehouses and have more atmospheric views out to the jungle and ocean, surrounded in tropical paradise.

For the ultimate hideaway paradise there are three individually designed luxurious private villas designed in stunning mid-century décor, with contemporary artworks and an homage to famous music at each. These have three or six large bedrooms, a private pool and outdoor decking, complete with sun loungers. These villas are perfect to enjoy a family or larger group holiday without stress. The impressive Bose home theatre system and Apple tv offer great cinema nights, after a hard day relaxing by the pool.
