Great Huts is a unique, beach front ecotourism destination near Port Antonio, Jamaica. It was voted the best environment of any small Jamaican resort by the London Observer in 2003.

The Resort consists of African style huts and tree houses within a jungle landscape perched upon cliffs overlooking Boston Bay and the Caribbean. Accommodations boast comfortable hand crafted bamboo furnishings, exotic fabrics and tribal art. Nature lovers, romantics, artists and other travelers will find warmth, authenticity, and adventure here. Author's Choice Resort for N.E. Jamaican Coast, Lonely Planet, 2006.

Great Huts is a private ocean front vacation village which blends a dramatic cliff-side seascape with the art, culture, and building styles of Africa and Old Jamaica. Enjoy the unique decor - West African textiles, original artwork and carvings. Reed fences and tropical landscaping will enhance your privacy.

All dwellings feature handcrafted bamboo and driftwood beds with comfortable king or queen size mattresses. The open air garden baths and showers are screened with bamboo for your privacy. There are 11 guest rooms/units, last renovated in 2007.

Chill out at our African lounge bar. Enjoy feasting and drinking nearby at the Boston Beach Jerk Centre or try dining at Woody's, San Tropez or Norma's at the Marina!

Staying in a Great Hut in an Ecotourism Village in Jamaica

This is a serious contender for our 30th anniversary getaway, specifically because of the Great Huts, situated in a village & overlooking the ocean. A hut experience with amenities...sounds like a great mix of a cultural experience

This is a serious contender for where I wanna spend my 30th wedding anniversary in 2008! My only concern...the humidity & if the place has air-conditioning so I'm not wilting the entire time.
