Strawberry Hill is a former coffee plantation perched on a plateau 3,100 feet above sea level. It looks down on the sprawling city of Kingston below and the blue-green waters of the Caribbean beyond.
The architecture and design of Strawberry Hill’s twelve guest villas are stunning. With their awnings, verandas and mountain vistas, they are apparently a self-contained world set apart from local life. But in fact the place continues to play a role in Jamaican society – key members of Kingston’s urban set make the forty-five minute drive to the renowned restaurant each week to eat, discuss and linger until sunset.
Aside from the food, the spectacular location and the cool temperatures, Strawberry Hill is also renowned as an Aveda spa.
