Great Huts Eco Resort

Great Huts was a unique and unforgettable experience! The place is completely|original, nested in nature and overlooking stunning views of the ocean. Through art style and performance, the resort honors Jamaica's African heritage. After dinner on Saturday night, we had a group showcasing Jamaica's traditional dance and songs. Overall it was an amazing experience!

Wow, this is truly one of the most magical places I’ve ever visited (and I’ve seen quite a bit of the world). This place radiates creativity—every art piece has been chosen and arranged with so much love. My creative heart was overflowing with excitement; it’s a true source of culture and inspiration.||As far as I’m concerned, it’s an absolute must-visit if you’re in Jamaica. We especially enjoyed the area around Port Antonio. Thank you to The Great Huts team for the warm stay, the loving and enthusiastic welcome, and of course, the delicious food. We had an amazing time!

I've stayed a Great Huts twice and it is a special place. Each hut has its own unique characteristics and charm. The African folk art, pottery, and furniture throughout are one-of-a-kind and beautiful. The ocean views of Boston Bay throughout the property are spectacular. A group of friends and I had a relaxing evening at Great Huts and a wonderful adventure at the small private beach the next morning. We enjoyed the Fig Tree House and the African Sunrise! We had lovely Jamaican cuisine meals at dinner and breakfast. I'd highly recommend for anyone looking for a 'glamping' or cabin-style retreat! We appreciated the friendly staff and how Great Huts takes care of the land and actually gives back to the local community.

From the moment I arrived at Great Huts, I was swept away by its beauty, creativity, and warmth. The property is unlike anywhere I’ve ever stayed — a sanctuary that immerses you in nature while celebrating African and Jamaican heritage through art, design, and architecture. Every corner tells a story, and being surrounded by such thoughtful detail felt truly special. The staff made my experience even more memorable. From the front desk to the dining area, everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. They called me by my name, anticipated my needs, and attended to my requests with genuine care. Their kindness added a personal touch that made me feel right at home. I also had the privilege of meeting Dr. Paul, the visionary behind Great Huts. Speaking with him gave me even greater appreciation for the love and thought poured into this place. His passion for culture, history, and nature is alive in every detail. Whether you’re seeking rest, inspiration, or connection, Great Huts is a truly magical escape. I can’t recommend it highly enough and I look forward to returning—this time with my daughter, who is already enchanted by it from afar!

Great Huts offered a wonderful, intimate, serene and nature filled experience. The staff was very friendly and engaging. The food was excellent! 💯 The overall ambiance was lovely.||The team really helped to make our anniversary celebration memorable!||The African Sunrise Hut was breathtaking and amazing!

This was my third experience at this remarkable resort, which I visited with a few colleagues, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff displayed a high level of professionalism, and the chef prepared exceptional and flavorful cuisine. The ocean view was truly stunning. Additionally, there were several hammocks near the beach, perfect for relaxation, reading, and listening to the soothing sounds of the waves. I will definitely be going back!

The atmosphere was really relaxing. If you need a reset, this is the perfect place to go. The beach, the pool, the food and the huts, all so good. A one of a kind experience you definitely need to try. Very quiet and calm, overall a great value for your money.

In a world of so much screen time..and disconnection.. this was a great place to become grounded again. These great huts, are Proof that adventurous spaces really do inspire an adventurous spirit.. well so says this international Architect and Educator..|I actually stayed in the African Sunrise room which is not for the lazy..and certainly for the active. The view at the top is always worth it and most certainly a reviving experience in the morning. It was actually my friend's idea to stay here, and being based in hot hot Kingston, I was worried about not having the comforts of an air conditioner.. but I must say the fresh cool air in Portland..especially by the cliff side, was cool enough. Access to the best Jerk Pork in Jamaica and the great chefs in the kitchen and friendly staff ( Bigg up Cherika) made this spot a most self sufficient and wholesome experience . I would encourage anyone to enjoy the delicious morning breakfast at the resort ..do some forrest bathing on site..Hit the road..then..Park the car, after the trip to the nearby falls, eat some food, take a swim, meet the Portland Family, have a surf , walk to the nearby bars, return to the huts for some dinner and a great sleep in the deep night skies of this eco resort.. you will get that circadian rhythm reset automatically..and you will definitely return home with an extra charge in your battery.||And by the way.. the jump off the diving board..worth it..but ..its higher than it seems !! ||I look forward to returning with a bigger group ready to take advantage of the communal spaces..maybe do some Yoga in the pavilion....next time..
