- How to get the most from your villa vacation -

Select the resort area that’s right for you:

Jamaica has tremendous variety,
and each area its own unique personality.
Choose the area that appeals to you.

Pick a Villa based on the size/ages of your group:

Three couples traveling together,
or a couple with four kids both need three bedrooms,
but probably not the same house.
Let us help you make your selection.

Look for features that matter to you:

Jamaica has them. Beach or hillside,
tennis, golf or water sports,
nearby attractions, swinging nightlife
tell us your priorities.

Java Properties give you choices at every price level. Set your vacation budget and get the most from it.

Jamaica was the first in the Caribbean to offer villa vacations, way back in the 1950’s before any other island had thought of it. The idea was seductive: instead of staying in a hotel, why not rent a private villa (which might belong to Noel Coward, or Ian Fleming, or Winston Churchill’s cousin) and live in splendor for a week, coddled by a perfect staff?

The concept caught on, and grew – to include more houses, in more of Jamaica’s famed resort areas, at a greater price range. The Jamaicans, as they often do, took the next logical step: they organized homeowners into JAVA – Jamaica Association of Villas and Apartments, and established JAVA Reservations, for overseas marketing and sales.

Today JAVA is better that ever, with more choices and state-of-the-art systems to give clients advice, confirm reservations, and package the experience for greatest of ease. You can opt for a hillside mansion in a legendary garden, or a simple beach condo with a lively center for meeting people. You can find a perfect spot for two, with the rest of the world as far away – or as near – as you choose.

Jamaica does all this better (and has done it longer) than other Caribbean islands. Jamaica has also opened this kind of holiday to more vacationers, with options that fit just about any budget or style.
