Beautiful surroundings, right next to the River and waterfall. Great Place to use as starting point for lots of stuff in the Blue Mountain. Friendly People.

Gorgeous property unlike any bed and breakfast I’ve ever stayed in! Staff is so welcoming (Suzanne is the best!!). Excellent food and hot water in the shower was a welcoming surprise. eclectic bohemian style and beautiful gardens make for a relaxing, peaceful mountain getaway. Will be returning soon!

Difficult to access gem

Really cool spot with a waterfall and small swimming pool on the property. No AC, but fans and cool open rooms. It’s a very difficult and long windy road to get here. Ensure that you let them know that you will want dinner before arriving as there is no where else to eat.

My stay at Rafjam was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that made me feel right at home. The lush surroundings and serene ambiance of this hidden gem provided the perfect escape from my daily life. The accommodations were comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully designed, blending seamlessly with the natural beauty of the area. The staff went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of my stay was enjoyable, offering personalized service and genuine care. If you're looking to relax by a river or just unwind in a tranquil setting, Rafjam offers an great experience. I am already looking forward to my next visit!

Hide-a-way Paradise

Although it was difficult to find in the dark and wouldn't recommend traveling there in a low clearance vehicle, the place was beautiful and tranquil. Food and service was friendly and welcoming. The showers are difficult to get a warm temperature, it seemed to be either hot or cold lol, wasn't able to find a way to mix the two. But who cares when you relax on a hammock on your balcony being serenaded by the river!

Amazing experience, a little piece of paradise in the middle of the Blue mountain. Not very accessible by car. Room and amenities were great (Internet, games, TV). Food was delicious (we ordered dinner and breakfast). My best experience during the full trip.
Stella, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

An eco friendly resort with a beautiful river running through property. Very relaxing and unique. You need a 4wd as drive down from redlight challenging road. Great as an alternative to Kingston for a few days. Quiet and relaxing. Accommodation is fine but not luxury. Environment is luxury. River dip is lovely and waterfall gorgeous.
Stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is rustic and very clean! Our stay was very tranquil and peaceful. It was a pleasure falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the nearby river. The overall surrounding is very pleasing to the eyes with vegetation and nature all around. Breakfast was good and special mention must be made of perhaps the best lemonade we have had in along while!
Stacy-Ann, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed one night at RafJam with my mom. The property was gorgeous! There was a steam flowing through the side and rear or the property and had a cool dripping area and two mini falls. The sound of the stream, birds and beautiful flora and fauna was accident perfect for the relaxing trip we were looking for. We pre ordered dinner and breakfast was served. Both delicious. The room was spacious, clean, comfortable and exceeded my expectations in this area. Suzanne the owner and Shane were very welcoming and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again but LONGER and recommend to anyone looking for something off the beaten path. Finding the place was a bit difficult and would recommend a call to the property before heading out and getting additional directions. There was also construction when we visited but that didn’t interrupt our trip. Book today and stay awhile and enjoy nature at this naturally beautiful property.

My second visit. Great location surrounded by interesting places to visit with some wonderful hikes around the coffee farms and streams. My room was lovely. Clean. Comfortable and had its own balcony with hammock and chairs overlooking the tropical gardens. Relaxing on the terrace listening to Reggae whilst sipping a beer was perfect. Only the sound of the stream and Bob Marley. As i wake early and go out i was permitted to make my own breakfast each day at 7am. Eggs, toast and coffee. A freindly atmosphere with a chilled-out vibe. All the staff were helpful and chatty. A salon and Spa too. Very safe at night.

A unique experience!

Quiet, secluded location, beautiful surroundings, terrific food, thoughtful staff and clean facilities. The facility is being built a section at a time and has a homey, handmade feel. Rooms are named, not numbered, and are themed (the Africa Room, the M.C. Escher Room, etc.) Rooms are spacious, comfortable and imaginatively decorated. Facilities include a spacious lounge, generous outdoor seating and a full self-service bar. The property includes several footpaths, including one to a waterfall. Highly recommended. The only challenge is getting there!
Richard, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This was a very poor experience. It was very difficult to get through to the property and customer service was very poor!

6/10 Good

The property is down a steep nearly inaccessible road right off the road entering Red Light. You need 4 wheel drive. The two guys who were here were friendly enough but overly low key. I live in JA and know the slowness of things but nothing was ready for us—no towels, no soap, after booking I was told our two bedroom room only had one bed and they could provide an air mattress. Ok but give me a discount or change the room. We waited an hour past the time we wanted dinner and there was only a small assortment of snacks —no fruit nothing. The place seems surprised to have guests. The small spring fed pool with a lovely small waterfalll, the surrounding hills and lovely flora and birds are what make this place special. The restaurant and bar are rustic and charming. It just seems that having guests is a second thought.

In den Bergen

Ein kleines Paradies. Aber kläre die Zufahrt ab. Lass dich abholen oder habe ein gutes Auto für die Strasse abseits der Newcastle Road (dirt road) und es gibt nur 1 Parkplatz! Sehr familiär und in der Natur. Jamaikanisches Frühstück war hervorragend.

Ce qui est surtout magnifique c’est l’endroit une fois atteins car c’est en plein cœur de la nature. La végétation, les différentes espèces de plantes, c’est hyper ressourçant. Par contre il faut absoluement un 4x4 pour s’y rendre car la route est désastreuse. (On a crevé en pleine montée, il fait vraiment bien conduire pour y aller avec une citadine) du coup, impossible de bouger de là bas avec la petite voiture, ce qui fait qu’on a prit 4 bières et 2 plats locaux pour 85 dollars. C’est abusé. On avait réservé une chambre face au fleuve, balcon, en payant un supplément et on s’est retrouvé dans une chambre sans charme face à un immeuble en travaux. Quel dommage ces incommodations car le l’environnement est top.
