Rates are listed below.
This is the real Jamaica. Beware of other adds claiming to be seaside or in Duncans
Bay, as many adds are misleading. Ask for a map view and see if in fact they are as close to beautiful beach like we are. A hidden gem that will give you a one of a kind experience of a true and genuine beauty of this tropical island. Located just steps from the beach, our villa offers a spectacular view of Duncans Bay. 'Effie's is a private villa that offers many upgrades including modern furnishings, large kitchen, big eating area and so much more. Everything you can ask for in a Caribbean getaway!

Effie's villa will pamper you and your loved ones with authentic Jamaican gourmet cuisine prepared by our friendly housekeepers/cooks. Specific meals can also be prepared at your request. A personal driver can be arranged, for all your desired excursions and transfers. Fees for all transport are not included in the rental rates.

The local fishermen and speargun divers may have daily catch of the day to offer, fresh fish, lobster, squid, conch, and octopus. Depending on weather and season. Hopefully, the seafood you love, will be in season. Local organic produce truck does come to the villa several times throughout the week, or you can browse the conveniently located market to select your own items.

Enjoy the master bedroom which offers a King bed and a double bed with a spacious 3 piece bathroom.
The second bedroom, is roomy with a king bed, includes 3 piece bathroom. The third bedroom provides a Queen and twin bed. Includes 3 piece bathroom. The twin bed can be used as a nice airy reading nook, or a place where you can stretch your legs, put up your feet and relax. Each bedroom naturally provides a refreshing breeze, the gentle sound of the ocean waves and the charming tones of nature. If all that doesn't sound great, air conditioning units and ceiling fans reside in each room your added comfort.

Effie's villa has been planned with nature and the environment as one. The spacious, open concept layout allows you to soak in the oceans view from virtually all areas of the home, including the dining room, kitchen, breakfast bar, living room and side patio dining area. Effie's offers top quality materials and workmanship including electrical and plumbing upgrades. The villa has heat on demand hot water system which eliminates having a cold shower.

Revel in the manicured grounds and shaded areas provided by the broad overhangs which surround the entire villa. This also keeps Effie's fresh by reducing the need for manmade cooling devices. The property has been regraded to provide proper drainage and eliminate standing water during and after rains, which means a decrease of insects and pesky bugs. There is a large gazebo which sits on the side yard patio, allows you and your visitors a relaxing, inspiring and incomparable ocean view. Finally, a beautiful infinity pool. This pool is private to the guests staying on the premises. Extra fee will apply to use the pool.

Once you go, you'll know. See you soon.

Our Little Slice of Heaven
I have been to Duncan's Bay 8 times and have stayed in several different villas adjacent to Jacob Taylor Beach. This one is the best! The view is amazing, especially from the new rooftop pool. The gazebo is the perfect place for morning coffee with rum cream and evening Red Stripes. Effie is a wonderfully perfect host and Melrose did a fantastic job preparing our freshly caught lobster! You are literally a 2 minute walk to the sea. The air conditioning more than did its job at night in the bedrooms when needed. The WIFI never let us down. The villa is modern and clean with a very nice kitchen (we enjoy doing some cooking when we travel to Jamaica). The large, tiled walk-in showers with benches were fantastic. This villa gets great shade during the hot afternoons and has an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand from the sea. Leroy's Beach Bar and Julet's Restaurant and Bar are both about a 3 minute walk and will serve you local flavors everyday, right on the beach. In between them you will find Tadla's Bar, which will keep you entertained well into the night. You'll be able to watch the fishermen go out and return with their catch and you will find talented carvers amongst the little shops - be sure to stop in and see Nash and tell him Michigan says hello! We will be back! -

We love this location! The villa is very comfortable and you can't beat the location, just steps from the beach. If you want to go on excursions or just stay around the neighborhood, there's plenty to do without having to drive far. Great food, kind people, sunny skies and ocean breeze - this was our second stay at this villa and we're going to keep coming back!

Absolute gem on a beautiful beach!
One of our favorite vacations we've ever been on! The Villa is amazing, close to the water, and was perfect for our family of 4. Aki and Effie are the most hospitable hosts we've ever experienced! Both were the greatest with helping us plan and prepare. Roxanne was the greatest! She was there each day and cooked some amazing meals! I could go on and on about this Villa and trip..... everything was perfect. We highly recommend Effies!

Nice, but not exactly what I was expecting
My family and I stayed here in June/July. The place is a little less than an hour away from the airport and somewhat nearby shopping if you’re driving. We did not rent a car during the week we were there which I half regret as the prices for taxis were very expensive. But then again depending on where you’re going driving can be very nerve wracking. Our housekeeper and cook was lovely and the food was amazing. The property is cute and cozy and located a half a block away from a gorgeous beach. All the bedrooms have a full bath attached and there is air conditioning in each of the bedrooms. But the rest if the house does not have a/c which for us was a problem. There were fans in the living room but to be honest we were unprepared for just how hot and sticky and uncomfortable we would feel. The pool upstairs was cute and the water was warm, too warm considering hot hot we already were. Even was ocean water was warm due to the temps so I had a hard time cooling down unless I was in the bedroom. I think most of the homes in Jamaica are like this, even the restaurants too. Just a tip- bring bug spray. You will need it, especially at night when all the doors are open to let in the very light ocean breezes or the mosquitoes will come in and feast off of you like they did on us. Btw, there are a lot of stray dogs in the neighborhood to keep you company which we loved since we were missing our furry kids back at home. But keep in mind they are not allowed in the house.

Beautiful Jamaican vacation
We had a wonderful stay at Effie's home. Property is very conveniently located near the beach with great views of the ocean from the pool and gazebo. Effie and Aki were very communicative and helpful. Our housekeeper Roxanne was so sweet to my Mom bringing her treats from the local bakery and made us delicious Jamaican dishes during our stay. Highly recommend her oxtail and fried chicken! We would love to return someday.

Relaxing stay at a beautiful villa
My 24-year-old son and I spent 5 days at this beautiful property during our first trip to Jamaica. We wanted something less crowded and more laidback than an all-inclusive-resort, but didn’t want to sacrifice easy access to good food, fun activities, and the beach. Our experience at Effie’s place was the perfect balance. Effie and Ackee were extremely helpful both before and after we arrived. They provided information about activities, driver contact info, and even had groceries purchased ahead of our arrival. Trisha had a delicious meal waiting the afternoon we arrived. She prepared other meals throughout our stay at our request. The villa was comfortable and offered cool breezes most of the time we were there. Though air conditioning units are available in the bedrooms, we didn’t use them during our stay. The best feature, in my opinion, is the proximity to the beach. Most of the time we had the beach to ourselves, with the exception of 3-4 dogs that followed us around. There were rarely more than 2-3 people at the same time. Effie and Ackee connected us with a fisherman who took us out to a reef nearby for snorkeling. Using the driver contacts we were given, we were able to enjoy swimming in the luminous lagoon, horseback riding, parasailing, a bamboo river raft ride, diving at waterfalls, water tubing, and tours of local areas. Overall, we greatly enjoyed our stay and intend to return again.

Amazing relaxing stay at Effie's Villa
We had the most wonderful and relaxing vacation stay at Effie’s Villa. Effie was exceptionally helpful throughout the planning progress and answered all our questions. We were greeted by Tresha, the housekeeper when we arrived. She was very kind and helpful throughout our stay. She is a wonderful cook and prepared several flavorful Jamaican meals for us. Tresha accompanied us to the grocery store and bakery located at Duncan Square to purchase some groceries, cinnamon rolls and Jamaican patties. The house and accommodations were perfect. We spent hours relaxing while enjoying amazing views from the rooftop pool and the front yard gazebo which faces the emerald blue waters of the sea. It was easy to fall into a relaxing routine of breakfast under the gazebo, sunbathing by the pool or on the beach and then heading over to Leroy’s to enjoy a few Red Stripe beers and listen to live music on Saturday night. We had the most amazing fried fish dinner at Leroy’s. Just paces behind Leroy’s is Tadler’s Beach Bar. Tadler, his sister and son sat with us to play the Jamaican board game, Ludo and then cooked some crab for us. We watched and visited with the locals as they cooked the crab right on the beach. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. We felt completely safe during our stay. It was hard to leave this vacation spot with beautiful views, sunsets and white sand. We will most definitely return to Jamaica and will recommend Effie’s Villa to our friends and family.

Fabulous time at Effie's
We will be back!! Is there a better indicator of our satisfaction with our stay?? After having been to Jamaica 8-10 previous times and always staying at AI resorts, we wanted to try something different this time and are so glad we did. Everything about the trip was fabulous, from pre-trip communication, to airport pick-up and transportation to the actual property itself, the wonderful housekeeper and chef to the beach and ocean proximity and cleanliness. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and helpful and it was just a great trip. Thank you Effie and Ackee for a great vacation!
