What Others Have to Say about Longview

From acres of beautifully landscaped and terraced grounds, Longview commands sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea and
blue-green mountain range. Large comfortable verandahs ~ one facing east, the other west ~ are vantage points for memorable sunrises and sunsets. After sunset, the lights of the town of Montego Bay form a mesmerizing jeweled backdrop across the water.

Three broad stone steps lead from the 1,300-square-foot east verandah to the deck, huge pool and outdoor bar. The verandah can remain open or gated for the safety of children. The 1,530-square-foot west verandah captures glorious sunsets, has an additional sitting area and serves as the al fresco dining porch.

The verandahs and Great Room are on 4,000 sq ft of cool marble floors, suitable for dancing to music from the
indoor- outdoor sound system. 12 French doors and 9 ceiling fans augment the almost non-stop tradewinds that kiss the top of Round Hill year-round.

A two-minute stroll through the gardens brings guests to the middle terrace and the two-bedroom Guest Cottage. Just across the lawn on the lower terrace is the private tennis court.

The head gardener has nurtured a wealth of incredibly beautiful roses, lilies, double and triple hibiscus and bougainvillea. The lawn is a photogenic site for sunset weddings amidst flower-draped garden walls framing the deep blue sea beyond.

Longview has hosted countless international celebrities and Academy Award-winning producers, directors and major movie stars. Meals here merit special attention. The Longview cook has completed the Villas by Linda Smith Gourmet Cuisine Course and earned the chef’s emblem. Grocery budget is $45 per adult per day, $20 for children.
