Villa di Drapers

I just returned from a week long stay at Hotel Mockingbird Hill and it was spectacular! After spending a week in Negril and at another location in Port Antonio, I was excited to check into Hotel Mockingbird Hill for a week of relaxation and bird watching. This ended up being the perfect place to rest, rejuvenate, and see lots of birds! I also had delicious meals from their new restaurant menu (Chef Kion is spectacular) and Anise always provided great service. I am lucky enough to be able to work remotely, so I had to work two days of my stay. I was a bit nervous about the internet, but it was stable enough to support me being on VPN and having multiple calls a day. Strangely, the upload speed is faster than the download speed here (most places its the opposite) so if you are trying to stream video or games all day you might have an issue. This is not the place for that though! This did end up being a VERY relaxing place to work - Anise recommended the most beautiful desk in the photo - and I would recommend it. As the upload speed was high I had no issues in my meetings and people said my connection was stable. As another reviewer mentioned this would be a great place to write a book or work on a project thay requires concentration. Once I got my obligatory two days of work out of the way I spent tons of time exploring the gardens. These are the true highlight of the property and I spent several hours just walking the grounds. The hotel is also very close to Frenchmans Cove and multiple other beaches, but I would not recommend walking at this time due to the dust of the roads at the bottom of the hill. Its a short drive and there are taxis once you get to the bottom of the hill - which is an easy walk. As multiple other people mentioned - yes - there is construction going on and it makes the journey here a bit slower. In my opinion you can DEF do them without a 4x4 you just need to take your time. One other comment I wanted to address was about the bugs! Yes! You are in a tropical climate and in an area with lush vegetation! There will be bugs! Bring some bug spray and youll be fine! I stayed at a 5 star hotel in the area that cost 3x the price and they had mosquitos too! Its unavoidable and dont go into nature if you dont actually like nature lol! Thank you again to all the staff at Hotel Mockingbird Hill that made my stay do wonderful. I will be returning soon!
