Lime Tree Farm, Blue Mountains

Tifiny, Rodger and Keisha do everything to make your stay at this coffee farm a once in a life experience. The place is very special! It was good that Rodger advised us not to drive up ourselves to the farm. The 5km long road from the Coffee factory to Rodger’s farm is too bumpy and definitely needs a 4-wheel car when rainy. The room at the farm was super clean, comfortable with a king bed and warm shower. Wifi and storage in a fridge are available in the ‘living room’ (which is the restaurant) where lovely breakfasts, lunches and dinners are prepared. It was wonderful to experience the real Jamaica kitchen. We so much enjoyed the long walks we made in the area and Rodger’s tour on the farm to experience how coffee is prepared. Thanks so much for your kindhearted hospitality!

This place is magical and a true hidden gem in the blue mountains. The villas are well built, beautifully furnished with magnificent views! The gardens are beautifully designed and well kept. The owners, Roger and Tiffany, are friendly and entertaining. Roger gave us a demonstration farm to table on how to make coffee. There is plenty of fun to be had. Bigs, the trail master and head foreman, is ready and enthusiastic about taking anyone anywhere they want to hike. Keisha is full of surprises with her cooking and use of spices. It is well worth the drive I only wish we could have stayed longer!

We have been to Lime Tree several times in the past. Wife and I enjoy the beauty of this place set in the lovely Blue Mountains of Jamaica run by the great team of Roger and Tifony along with Kasha who is a great cook and let us not forget Black Ops the resident security dog. Thanks to all for the pre-birthday cake for my wife. Will never forget the hospitality shown us. Looking forward to our next visit to paradise.

We stayed 2 nights at lime tree farm & had the most relaxing and enriching time. The views are incredible, the property is beautiful & the team are incredibly warm & welcoming. We loved being immersed in nature and were delighted by all the streamertail humming birds. Thanks to Keisha for the best food we ate during our 2 week trip to Jamaica. Thanks to Rodger for sharing the fascinating history of the farm & for getting us there. Thanks to Tiffany for the kind hosting & chats. Thanks to Bigs for the hike up to Governor’s Bench and the photo shoots! And of course, many thanks to Black Ops for the company. We felt like we were welcomed into someone’s home. I very much hope we can return some day.

Beautiful boho experience on the delightfully-isolated side of the Blue Mountains. Home-made and local food prepared by Keisha. Rodger and his wife have forgotten more about Jamaica and things to do than most will ever know. Has great tips for everything. Gave me great directions for a memorable trip to the (ultimately rather disappointing) Cinchona Gardens (an example of it being about the journey not the destination!). A "can-do" attitude to help with any issues prevails - a most hospitable and relaxed atmosphere. Rodger himself is fantastic and welcoming company - has lived a life less ordinary - and will gladly (non-intrusively) have a chat and a beer or three with you, or leave you your space. The farm benefits from its delightful bucolic isolation - the only way up is a dirt-track which needs a heavy duty jeep, but this is all the better as it gets you away from the hustle and bustle of "real-life". This transport is not cheap and adds to the cost, but is worth it. A fair amount of hiking locally, all quite safe it seems. Rodger may take you or will have some maps he can draw out for you. A hike up Blue Mountain Peak, certainly achievable for a person of moderate fitness, especially on a week-day when you might have that glorious mountain to yourself, is a truly memorable experience. Lovely views from the top to Port Antonio on one side and Kingston below, and humming birds and natural foliage to beat the band all the way up. Note this requires a jeep-transfer from the farm, which adds some cost. A truly unique and memorable place (this year was my second time back). I hope they never pave that road and change the whole character of a unique slice of Jamaica.

Without a doubt this visit to Jamaica and Lime Tree Farm will be something that lives long in the memory. Situated in the most stunning area, high and far away from normal life the whole trip was this idyllic almost dream like situation. Rodger and Tiff were the most welcoming of hosts and the hospitality provided was nothing short of magnificent. The food was incredible and the way we were looked after was really wonderful. (not forgetting Keisha too!) The views you will experience here on Lime Tree Farm are something I feel i'd see on the television or in a book. It's quite a sight for my brain to really take in as it almost looks like a painting! The peace and calmness of Lime Tree Farm should not be underestimated. A fantastic place, a wonderful trip and a memory I will always cherish.

Charming and romantic with spectacular views, comfortable and safe accommodations, and exceptional food! Roger and his wife Tifony are wonderful hosts and Keisha a fantastic cook. Not just the perfect getaway for couples, but an awesome place for a yoga retreat or family vacation. Can’t wait for my next visit!

We spent 3 wonderful nights (4 adults and three teenaged kids) at Lime Tree Farm over the Christmas holiday. Such a special place with special people. Keisha and Tiff fed us beautiful food in their stunning outdoor dining room; Rodger and Black Ops (the dog) led us on gorgeous walks to scentic overlooks. The accommodation is basic but fresh with thoughtful design. The garden and birds are simply stunning. This is a treasure of a spot in the Blue Mountains. Far from the crowds on north shore beaches and a chance to see a bit of the real Jamaica.

We spent the last 5 days here during a 2 week trip to JA having spent the start on the coast at Portland which we love. Roger collected us from the coffee factory in his Land Rover and took us up to the stunning Lime Tree Farm. We were really impressed with the standard of the accommodation. We stayed with our 9 and 11 year old boys in the “wind” apartment which provides comfy beds including bunks for the kids, spacious bathroom with fresh contemporary styling. The food is exceptional, Keisha and Tiff treated us to some fantastic home cooked Jamaican cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We eat a fair amount of Jamaican food and can tell you this is good! The views are spectacular, from the farm you get a good view over to blue mountain peak, really clear night skies to see stars. Roger took us on a couple of short treks up to nearby hills with spectacular views of blue and John crow mountains and over to Kingston and port royal. We climbed blue mountain peak with the boys and Roger arranged a driver take us too and from the starting point near Mavis Bank. We chose not to set off at 1am to summit at sunrise as we figured if it was cloudy we wouldn’t see anything and would prefer to look at things on the way up. We left at 5 from the farm to start at 6:30 and enjoyed looking at the changing environment on the way up and occasional views amongst the cloud! We found the trail pretty easy going but you notice the altitude near the top! Roger treated us to a coffee production demo and got the kids involved in parts of the process which they enjoyed. A friend drove us there through cedar valley ignoring Roger’s directions; FOLLOW ROGER’S DIRECTIONS if you’re in a car as we had to get out and push in a few places and surprised we didn’t get stuck:D Roger’s route from Kingston is straight forward and easy going. We greatly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend.
