The property was very clean, tidy and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped for a perfect weekend getaway. The main improvement needed is check in communication.

We booked thru Expedia but the host who lives in the UK ( Melanie Butcher) called us to say ‘ I will not let you step inside the door as long as I don’t get paid!!’ We told us Expedia has already charged us - sent her a screenshot of the CC statement but she was having trouble swiping the card even after we gave her a mother card. I don’t know what was the mismatch with Expedia & her but we were stranded out in the heat for 3-4 hrs w/o a hotel/ apartment. Finally Expedia rebooked us at another hotel which we grabbed - but it was not so nice as the apt- condo we had booked. We are seasoned travelers so we took it in stride- but was a very bad experience overall. We wasted half a day of our precious vacay time & took some stress too. Not what you want on a vacation.

The amenities were great. I really enjoyed my stay highly recommend

Great condo near Ochi

Beautiful, well appointed condo, with a gorgeous ocean view. It was well equipped with towels, utensils, cookware, etc. and it made for a comfortable stay with an opportunity to cook our own meals when we didn't want to go out. Very nice pools right on edge of ocean, but snorkeling is tough onsite due to choppy seas. Owner was easy to communicate with and very responsive. Ochi beach at Fisherman's village is about a 10 minute drive, and well worth the $3 charge for a great experience.
Niraj, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property was rented without hot water for 6/7 days of my stay. I agreed on 4th day to 3 day refund offered because water was supposed to be fixed. Then it went again. Now I’ve had to pay to litigate.

My husband and I had to go down to Jamaica for his mother’s funeral. It was a very difficult time for both of us. Our stay at Whispering Seas gave us the feel of a home away from home. It was exactly what we needed. The view was gorgeous, and the sound of the waves was so relaxing! Our apartment was beautiful! It was clean, nicely decorated, and had most of what we needed. We would, definitely, stay there, again! Our only complaint is that the workout room was bad. My husband and I were looking forward to keeping up with our workouts while we were down there, but we were unable to do that. There’s hardly any equipment in the workout room; and, what is in there, is broken, old, and rusty. They should invest in some nice equipment, and keep the door closed so the sea air doesn’t rust everything. Put an air conditioner in to keep the room cool. Thank you to Sam and the security staff for being there when we had questions. Thank you to Melanie, the owner, for having such a beautiful place for us to enjoy!
Lisa, 8-night trip

The villa itself was lovely. The view and the grounds are lovely. There are a number of issues that the owners need to address: 1. The only Fan in living room doesn’t work. 2. The microwave, washer and dryer don’t work. 3. They don’t provide enough towels. Only 1 per person just to shower. Need to consider giving guests pool towels. As no traveler from abroad walks with a pool/beach towel. 4 when we first arrived the security guard told us he didn’t see our reservation and the owners live in Europe so he couldn’t contact them. Luckily he had a number for a driver and that guy had a door access code. Just a lot of issues to address by the owners. None the less the place is lovely, very relaxing.

I booked a property with a king sized bed and bathroom with a bathtub. When we reached Whispering Seas, we were told the apartment we had booked had been double-booked by the owner and we were sent to the next-door apartment complex, The Waves. The condo unit there was nice and had similar amenities -- except it did not have a king size bed (full size only) or bathtub -- or 24-hour front gate staff (which created problems as we left). When I shared the discrepancies with the host upon arriving, they said we could find another place and get a full refund -- which is unreasonable at the last minute. They claimed to have sent a message -- which I never received about the double booking. When we left, I asked for a modest $50 refund & I never heard back. The place has an amazing view (though no real ocean access as it's all rocky) and the condo is very new and all items are upgraded. However, the host did not seem transparent and straightforward or interested in responding thoughtfully to concerns.

10/10 Exceptional

This place is beautiful. The view from the back door is stunning. I had no trouble gaining access. I sent the owner a message the day before arrival and she sent the code within minutes. The property is gated with a security guard 24 hours a day. There is plenty of parking. The only complaint I have is that I wish the gym area was air conditioned. It was too hot in there even before sunrise.

While the property itself is beautiful, we did not have the best experience at Whispering Seas renting with Melanie. We arrived to the condo and the security guard insisted we provide the exact condo number. We provided all of the information Orbitz provided us and there was a lot of confusion. Finally, he made a phone call and the owner of the condo didn't even know we were checking in. She had the wrong date and had not sent any check in instructions whatsoever. The condo was clean, well decorated, and very comfortable. However, there were no instructions and the hot water heater and oven were not turned on. For more than a day, we didn't have hot water and Melanie did not reply to our concern. On the second day, the main entry keypad locked us out and delayed our family from enjoying our vacation again. Lastly, we had problems with the washing machine during our stay and one of the pools was green and covered with slimy algae. There were no signs to indicate it was closed or unsafe. This property has tons of potential, but the owner clearly is not ready to host guests and has very poor communication. I would not recommend staying in this particular unit at Whispering Seas.

This property is not as advertised. There is no convenience store on the property (you have to cross a highway on foot with cars coming at you on either side to get a bottle of water), there is no spa, and the apartment did not even have salt and pepper. It was very difficult to locate; the aircon in one of the bedrooms did not work and had to be repaired, and there was no battery to change the speed of the ceiling fan using a remote. There is a nice Italian restaurant across the street, and a salt water pool. The place is quiet and peaceful and the staff were lovely.

The apartment was very spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. In fact the online pictures did not do the property service. The grounds were immaculate with a hardworking groundsman. We even got coconut from the onsite trees! My only real issues were the absence of hot water and air conditioning in the main living spaces. AC in the rooms were lovely and encouraged sleep. Definitely a place to return to..we are planning the next trip!!
Rhonda, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the condo space we rented. It was huge for four people. A good kitchen to use. Excellent WIFI. Fantastic view. Very fun (though shallow) pools. Not crowded at all. We hardly saw people. Being right off the highway, and only about 10-12 minutes from Ochi, it was very convenient. If we could afford it, we'd love to go again, and wish we could take my wife's family.

My stay was excellent comfortable beds, A/C in excellent working condition, property very clean with all amenities. I absolutely love how I could sit on the patio and not be bothered by mosquitoes. Excellent view and pool. My only recommendation is to upgrade the gym with proper working equipment. That area has such a potential to be a nice state of the art gym.
