Minerva

4.7(21 reviews)

About

In Jamaica, Minerva operates as a guest house in Treasure Beach, a quieter stretch on the island's south coast.

Known for its relaxed setting, the property has earned a 4.7 out of 5 rating from 21 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded stays in the area. Its website at http://www.minervahouse.com/ offers further contact details for those planning a visit.

First-time visitors can expect a guest house format rather than a large resort, which suits travellers looking for a more personal base in Treasure Beach. The south coast location sits away from the busier tourist hubs of Montego Bay, Negril and Ocho Rios, though Kingston, Port Antonio, Falmouth, Mandeville and Spanish Town are all reachable by road.

Across the Caribbean, temperatures stay warm all year, rarely dropping below the low twenties Celsius, so light clothing works for most of a trip. Fish, lobster and conch feature in Caribbean cooking, often stewed or grilled with lime and pepper, giving visitors plenty to try. Caribbean islands are mostly volcanic or limestone in origin, and coral reefs grow off many of their coasts, which shapes the swimming and snorkelling on offer.
