I highly recommend that wunderful place for all who like it individual. It is a small Hotel with 10 rooms and all furnished individually. It is placed at a hill with beautiful view and nice Pool. We had breakfirst and dinner which was both delicious and prepared with local Ingredients . The Service is excellent .

We chose Portland as our destination in Jamaica because of the promises in our different travel guides to experience the 'real' Jamaica. As this was our first trip to the island, we didn't really know what to expect. Our internal images of Jamaica were quite diffuse: sunshine, reggae, some nice beaches... Our expectations with regards to the island and to... More

While we did not stay at this property (though we wish we had! we were visiting from Ocho Rios). We spent a lovely afternoon lazing about admiring the beautiful tropical gardens while soaking up the beautiful vistas on the terrace at Mocking Bird Hill. We heard rave reviews about the food (& environs) from friends who have stayed there (#10... More

Having now read reviews by others it would seem we were unlucky. The hotel was situated in a fantastic setting but being surrounded by barking dogs on arrival was not the most pleasant of welcomes when one of our party has an aversion to canines.

Shireen and Barbara go to great lengths to ensure guests have a memorable experience and it was! The food was delicious, the room immaculate, the staff extraordinary - especially Anton and Kerri. (Thanks for the help finding the Jamaican Owl, Kerri). Definitely on our list of places to go back to.

When I came to mocking bird hill I felt like I was truly welcome. Shireen and Barbara greeted me on arrival and are very friendly people who I will stay in touch with. The hotel is beautiful in an absolutely remarkable location with views that blew me away. The room was spotless and a good size with everything you need.... More

Mockingbird Hill Hotel is a treasure..a marvelous hotel both for birders and travelers who just want a luxurious and authentically Jamaican boutique hotel ! We arrived expecting what we have come to know traveling to all parts of the world on irding excursions, yet another predictably austere but thoughtfully run eco-hotel. We found instead an excellent small hotel with a... More

Thank you Shireen and Barbara for a truly relaxing and magical holiday. Even though we were unlucky with the weather we couldn't have had a better trip seeing all the wonderful local sites such as the Somerset Falls, Frenchman's Cove, Goldeneye and many more. We enjoyed the fabulous gardens you have lovingly created, your delicious cooking (and indeed lessons) and... More

This is not a “conventional” hotel –and not something for everyone but we loved it! It has the charm and intimacy of a comfortable home ( which it previously was) and while it is operated efficiently and with great care and love – one senses it as one walks and sees all the lovely fresh flower arrangements, it is all...
