My partner and I stayed at Mount Edge for one night, and we really wish we'd stayed longer! It was an absolutely stunning location, and Robyn was the perfect host. It felt like an authentic Jamaican experience, and very romantic staying in what I called a "tree house". Our room was fitted with a double bed, and we had a... More

I was concerned that Mt. Edge would be a little too basic (given some of the online pictures), but my husband reminded me that we go tent camping, for heaven's sake, so we took the chance. It was so worth it! Yes the rooms are basic and the plumbing too, but this is the mountains of Jamaica so one must... More

We expected rustic but got way more than we bargained for. Had we not been so tired from the drive over the horrid road to get there we would have probably left. Our first view of our room was the rat poison that had been scattered all over the floor. The employee cleaned up some of it-we had to borrow... More

Just wonderful! Picturesque and scenic views, the best coffee and food, a lot of things to do and discover and a very lovely stuff! We arrived at Mount Edge an all rooms were booked, but the manager Robyn organized a beautiful villa for the same price. The whole stuff will do everything to make you feel good. The organic food...

My girlfriend and I have just come home from a weekend at Mount Edge Guest House and it was wonderful. The people there are great, friendly and forthcoming. We couldn't have asked for nicer service. Usually I don't feel at home in any hotel, B&B or the likes, but this places is special. Beautiful view, food and coffee. Would recommend... More

Mount Edge Guesthouse is a collection of rustic buildings clinging to the side of the hill and overlooking a beautiful valley below Newcastle, 17 miles north and 3500 feet above Kingston Jamaica. Away from the noise and bustle of the city, Mount Edge is an excellent place to relax and unwind, and a good base from which to explore the... More

My husband and I spent a wonderful 2 days here. Robyn and Michael were incredibly nice, as were everyone else who worked there. As a Jamaican, I wanted to show my husband (his first time to the island) the beauty of the Blue Mountains without the burden of staying with relatives. Our room (Gong) was nice, but bare. Our bed...

We had the pleasure of spending a great few nights last week with the hosts Michael and Robyn who are among the loveliest, friendliest people we met in Jamaica! As soon as we arrived we shared drinks and banter with Michael and some of the longer staying guests. The location in the Blue Mountains is unbeatable - you literally feel... More

We had an interesting stay at Mount Edge. Robyn, the owner, is warm and welcoming, and tries to be as accommodating as possible. The mountain views from the guest house are beautiful indeed. But as some others have pointed out, the guest house is really more of a hostel. Our room was clean enough, though ours had some sort of... More

My wife and I spent the best days of any trip of our adult lives at Mount Edge in the Blue Mountains! It is a delightful property run by great people. We were there in December. Robyn and all the staff are genuine and accommodating. Robert cooks delicious meals served in the restaurant which has beautiful views and a great... More
