I had an incredible experience at this resort nestled in the mountains. The breathtaking views and unique atmosphere left a lasting impression on me. While the service had its ups and downs, the peaceful surroundings and the stunning infinity pool made my stay special. However, the limited dining options and some hiccups with room service took away from the overall experience.

Though Bob Marley's room had some charm and mystique, I found it a bit small and in need of some touch-ups. The balcony view was nice, but the space felt slightly scruffy.
Service

The service was friendly and professional, but there were moments when it felt unenthusiastic, especially during meal times. Everyone was open to conversation, which was nice, but the attentiveness could have improved.

The meals I had were delicious, but I wish there had been more variety in the options. The breakfast felt a bit lackluster, more like a continental spread than a hearty start to the day.

The infinity pool was a standout feature - a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the sunset. However, some amenities could use a little sprucing up.

Strawberry Hill is a true gem nestled in the hills of St. Andrew, with breathtaking views over Kingston that are simply unforgettable. The staff made us feel welcomed and were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. While our stay was fantastic, I did notice there was a fee for entry that might come as a surprise. Overall, it's a place where relaxation meets scenic beauty, perfect for a romantic getaway or anyone looking to unwind in nature.

Strawberry Hill is a breathtaking retreat high in the Blue Mountains, offering stunning views and a serene atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed, but service can be slow and inconsistent, particularly at meal times. While the dining experience offers some delicious options, there are notable delays that could be improved. Overall, it's a luxurious getaway well-worth the price, if you're prepared for some occasional waiting.

Strawberry Hill is a lovely retreat high in the Blue Mountains with stunning views and charming cottages. The service is excellent, making your stay special, but I did experience some noisy disturbances from the local wildlife during the night. The dining experience is delightful, especially the brunch, but be prepared that breakfast wasn't well communicated during my stay. Overall, it's a unique getaway for adventure lovers, but some areas could use improvements.

Strawberry Hill offers a stunning escape in the Blue Mountains, complete with breathtaking views and a cozy ambiance. The cottages provide ample privacy, though they show signs of age. Dining can be hit or miss, with standout breakfast options but some dinner choices being quite disappointing. Service was a mixed bag, and the spa is a highlight, albeit pricey. Overall, it's a relaxing retreat that could use some updates and consistency in various areas.
