    A Host of Attractions
    Chrisanns Beach Resort is two hours away from Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay. The resort is just steps away from some of Ocho Rios' finest attractions.

    Across the street are P.J.'s Restaurant, Tower Jerk Center, and Harmony Hall /The Summerhouse Restaurant, an exquisite old mansion which was tastefully remodelled with a top rated restaurant. Harmony Hall is also a Jamaican National Heritage site.

    If you want to cook for yourself, there's a well stocked grocery store right across the street, and a weekly farmers' market just down the road with a wide variety of fresh Jamaican fruits and vegetables.

    In Ocho Rios, you can shop for souvenirs, duty free jewelry and other goodies at the Island Village Shopping Center. Relax at Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville Restaurant and Lounge, right on the beach at Island Village.

    You can visit museums such as the Reggae Museum in Island Village, Shaw Park Gardens, Coyaba Gardens and the world-famous Dunns River Falls and Park.

    Ocho Rios has many restaurants: Italian, Chinese, international, Indian, and Jamaican. Every June, the town hosts a local jazz festival that brings together jazz musicians from across the island.

    You'll find other attractions in Ocho Rios like Dolphin Cove, where you can swim with these friendly creatures, and Mystic Mountain for an awesome eco-tourism experience, complete with canopy bridges and zipline rides above a tropical rainforest.

    Tour a working citrus plantation at the Prospect Plantation Tour near to Chrisanns Beach Resort, go kayaking down the White River or mountain biking on trails nearby.

    Ocho Rios is also one of the few resorts where you can visit authentic Jamaican towns, such as St. Ann's Bay, the birthplace of Marcus Garvey. St. Ann's Bay is just beside New Seville, the site where Christopher Columbus first landed in Jamaica. Here you can visit a historical museum and ruins of early Spanish and British settlements from the 15th and 16th centuries.

    Just 45 minutes from Chrisanns is the birthplace of Bob Marley: Nine Miles, where you can visit his mausoleum and museum.

    Chrisanns Beach Resort is just an hour's drive away from Firefly, the home of Sir Noel Coward. Firefly is now a museum, and another National Heritage site. Forty five minutes away is Golden Eye, Ian Fleming's home where he wrote his James Bond novels.

    If you feel adventurous, you can rent a car right across the street. Rent a car and drive to Portland and visit Navy Island, where Errol Flynn once lived. There' are tour brochures and car rental information in the reception area.

It was disappointing stay

There are no beaches close by (Reggae Beach is closed), the property is run down (roof tiles falling off on the parking lot), despite being for adults only there were at least 6 kids screaming and wining in the pool when arrived and teenagers until 10:00 in there too, cockroaches in the condo. The swimming area requires to wear water shoes, rocks and pebbles bottom. Fortunately we had a car to visit other beaches and to go to Ocho Rios.

Sweet Apartment

We found this apartment and it's view to be very nice! You're right up front in this small condo complex with a clean pool, grotto and ocean beyond. It's an eyeful of soothing blue water. The condo itself is done in colorful Jamaican colors and the walls are covered in local artwork. The only concern to pass on is that the road out front is heavily travelled and a not really walkable. Prepare to taxi to most places. Condo security will call you a ride, if needed.

Wonderful

We have a 10 year old son with high-functioning autism/Aspergers. It was therefore important to us to find a peaceful place to use as a home base... somewhere to relax, cook our own food, watch familiar TV programs and return to familiar routines in the evening after our daily adventures. This apartment was perfect for our needs. It had everything we needed including nice touches like masks, snorkels, and thick towels. We were perfectly comfortable. We slept well. The bed in the loft is particularly comfortable. The apartment is located with a small complex called Chrisann's, which has about 30 units. It also has a lovely little beach sheltered by a breakwater and a small, well-maintained pool. Our son loved climbing the rocks to look for hermit crabs, snails, and colourful rocks. We loved being able to take a dip in the pool, the ocean, or both whenever we felt hot. Chrisann's has a small staff that are responsible for cleaning the units, keeping the grounds neat, and providing gate security. All of them were patient and kind with my son. We felt safe and happy there. Marian provided great information to make our Jamaican experience as smooth as possible. She was also very responsive to our e-mails. We will miss Chrisann's, and apartment 10, very much.

Beautiful, safe and serene.

The apartment was everything we desired and more. Set in beautiful and well-tended grounds with a lovely little private cove for swimming, it was close enough to Ocho Rios (15-20 minutes) by car and yet far enough away from the noise, hustle & bustle of that town. The apartment itself is well-equipped and tastefully furnished; the small supermarket across the road had everything we needed to make meals. I was fortunate in having relatives close by who could drive us around, but taxis are easily available if you don't want to rent a car. Our host, Marian, was extremely helpful and so was Simone, the housekeeper. I'm a native Jamaican who has been living abroad for some time. I've revisited the island often and stayed in many places there, and this is now among my favorites. I hope to return to this lovely spot.

Chrissans is an amazing place. We enjoyed snorkeling and the pool was awesome. Loved exploring the local area and met so many nice people. We spent time in a local pottery shop talking with the potter Delbert who had beautiful wares at factory prices. We also discovered a hidden restaurant 1/2 mile east just past the high school that has excellent food at excellent prices called El Pablo’s. Jodian, the house keeper took excellent care of us. All this and more made our stay here a vacation to remember. Thank you, Mark and Joan

Hermoso departamento!!

El departamento está muy bien puesto, con detalles adorables y cuidado con amor. Vimos películas, cocinamos, hicimos snorkel, era como estar en casa con un paisaje mucho más lindo, por supuesto! Me pareció un poco lejano del centro. Pero si lo que buscan es descansar y disfrutar de la pileta es ideal!

Wonderful amenities and staff!

I booked Apt. 10 at Chrisann's as a surprise for my husband's birthday and was thrilled with the accommodations and staff. The apartment was fully stocked with games, books, ironing board, blow dryer, beach towels and even snorkeling gear! The kitchen had everything you need to prepare great meals and we were even welcomed with a gift bag that contained some specialty items (including a bar of soap which I had forgotten at home!) Cathy did a marvelous job of tending to our needs and immaculately cleaned the apartment every day and we felt very pampered. The apt. owner's recommendation of Glenn's Restaurant across the street was fantastic, great authentic food and service, along with the Jerk Center within walking distance. We rented a car but staff will arrange for anything you want, fresh fish, lobster, taxi's, specific items from the store, and they even set up a couple of tables for our large Chrisann's group to have dinner by the pool one night. Our TV in Apt. 10 even had the NFL playoff games on while our friends in other apartments didn't have access so we really appreciated that taste of home too. We plan on returning to Chrisann's on a more frequent basis and will definitely request Apt.10!

Lovely relaxing vacation

We really enjoyed staying at Marian's place. It is clean and comfortable, and the staff, and Marian's recommendations for other people--especially Kristy's taxi service--were great. Cathy made us a great meal of curried chicken and rice and beans. We would have had her cooked more. We liked the location very much--we thought of renting a car but decided we didn't need one. Glenn's across the street was a good place for any meal. Not much of a beach at this place but you can easily walk to Bamboo (previously Reggae Beach) Beach. Take a route taxi to Moxon's just to the east, which has stunning views and good restaurant and snorkeling. Walk to the spa at Couples Tower Island resort nearby for a very luxurious massage (we got a day pass for there too which is pricey at $100 per person, but lots of free food, drinks and activities for the price). Best of all Toscanini is right down the road. We explored outside of the immediate area a little bit, but mostly stayed in the neighborhood nearby. We were happy with our choice to stay in this modest but very comfortable accommodation, and spend money going out.

Nice getaway

My visit was wonderful. We really had a nice and relaxing stay. The resort was safe and clean, the staff was friendly and cooperative (the housekeeper Charmaine was always reliable and helpful), and provided attractive and stress-free accommodations. The private beach can only be described as a small piece of paradise. Also, the owner was very helpful in providing information about transportation, etc. I will be back.

Awesome stay!

My wife and I stayed at Chrisanns Beach Resort for our honey moon. We lodged in room 10 and we have to say, it was a really nice room!!! It was not the biggest room but the arrangement made it very spacious. It was very cute and felt like a home away from home with practically everything we needed being in place. Everything from a fully equipped kitchen to board games, beach towels, cable tv, a mini balcony, hot water, air conditioning and even diving goggles. The staff was courteous and housekeeping did a good job of making sure things were in order and over all the entire experience was good value for our money.

Perfect compromise between hustle of Ocho and secluded cottages far away from good stuff.

We chose this condo for a week's holiday in Jamaica. Although we considered a few places in Ocho Rios (and elsewhere on the North coast), most seemed to promise to be too noisy. Other possible rentals were secluded, but not close to anything particularly interesting. This condo is close enough to Ocho, Dunn's, etc., and also has restaurants and a grocery store as well as Reggae Beach within walking distance. The condo's pool and sheltered cove mini-beach may not match those of the big all-inclusives, but are adequate and user friendly. The host Marian and the housekeepers are very helpful and available. Condo has extras such as cable TV, WiFi, games, books, snorkel gear, kitchen utensils. It is beautifully decorated and very clean and neat. You can manage without a rental car though, if you can adjust to left side driving, a car makes things easier.

Wonderful relaxation

We stayed in apartment 10 for three weeks. It was so peaceful and relaxing that we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The staff at Chrisanns were all so delightful! Kathy and Charmaine did a beautiful job of keeping our apartment clean and tidy. Jennifer was always a pleasure to meet and talk to during our stay. Chase and Trevor were very interesting and fun to be around. Marianne always treated us with the utmost care and concern. She dealt with any issues that came up promptly and always responded to our queries. The apartment now has a new fridge and a new toaster. Thank you Marianne for all your patience when our deposit check got lost in the mail. The pictures reflect the apartment amenities. For those of you who may rely on Wi-Fi, we were best able to connect with our small laptop, then a blackberry playbook and the iPad mini provided the least reliable connections. While staying there, others with the regular iPad were able to connect from a further distance away from the lobby.

My Experience at Chrisanns

Our Experience at Chrisanns Beach Resort was overall very favorable! we chose Chrisanns because we wanted a quiet place to stay that was on the beach,clean and safe. We also wanted our own cooking facilities. The unit was very comfortable and clean. the bed was wonderful!!! I slept like a baby!!! The staff was very courteous and helpful of our needs. The only drawback was the lack of Wifi in the unit, we had to go to the lobby to get internet service, but I was told about this when I booked the Unit. I would definitely go back!!!

Lovely Condo...but local problems are an issue.

This condo and resort are very pretty, the unit is well stocked, and resort staff are very friendly. The pictures listed represent this condo well and we really loved the house-keeping staff! The resort is well secured and a guard does watch the gate and lot - though friends of ours had something taken from their rental car (unlocked). The AC works very well in the condo, the equipment all works except that the remote for the DVD is broken and needs to be replaced. The weather was beautiful and the resort grounds were immaculately maintained by staff. And taking advantage of the rental cell phone was a big help during our stay. However during our 8 day stay, the water was out one day, the power off for another day, and the internet only worked 1 day out of our entire stay. The Chrisanns resort internet also was very difficult to access meaning that we and other guests had to grab an internet signal from Glens Restaurant across the road even though we advised staff of these issues. After pre-booking them, the bus company Tropical Tours suddenly refused to come pick us up at Chrisanns to take us back to the airport so we had to take a taxi in to town to catch their bus. Since renting a car is problematic for those of us used to driving on the right side of the road (our friends got in an accident), I would recommend that people renting this suite plan their entire stay out with excursions before hand so that you don't end up with "cabin fever." Staying at the condo is no problem though since the grocery/liquor store and Glens Restaurant are right across the street, the pool is nice, and the ocean is just a few steps further away. I did swim out to the ocean and snorkled every day and saw fish of all types, colors, and sizes. Entrance to the ocean is dicey though when you have to swim through the rock barrier. Taxi prices were high and all service type people outside the condo are demanding tips. We took a trip to Glistening Waters (amazing by the way) and the negotiated taxi fair with tip came to 120 US$ - and I am not sure there is a way around those prices. The grocery store is well stocked but does not have a lot of fresh vegetables - yet it does provide a currency exchange service from US$ to Jamaican. ATM is a taxi ride away - so bring a lot of cash remembering that the exchange rate is 90 or 100$ Jamaican to every 1$ USD. So while Jamaica is lovely and Chrisanns is a pretty & sweet little resort, we are not sure we would come back.

Love Jamaica

Marian, I had a wonderful 18 day stay at your beautiful place and will definitely be back again! Chrisanns was like my own little piece of paradise, the staff was wonderful, the sun was shining, the water was crystal clear and the villa was everything I needed. Everything was perfect and it was quiet but also close to all the action. I visited several farmers markets, local bars and restaurants and even went to a few street parties! Had an awesome time and would recommend to anyone thinking of staying here. Thanks again for all the great info you provided and the rental phone, it came in very handy and I saved a whole lot of cash by not using my own cell phone. I would defintely recommend your place to anyone looking to avoid the masses at an AI and who want to experience the local culture. Thanks again Marian, I had a wonderful time.

Love Jamaica

Marian, just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed staying at your condo. What a lovely place you have. Our two weeks (December 18/12 thru January 1/13) went by too quickly. We so enjoyed the wonderful Jamaican people, the management and staff at Chrissans were so friendly and helpful. The food and beaches were fantastic - loved the Jerk chicken! The weather could not have been better. Thank you Marian also for all your helpful tips on restaurants and where to go. We will certainly go back to Jamaica in the near future.

Quiet Beach-side a Plus

We traveled to Jamaica at the end of July 2012 for just over a week after having researched several destinations including Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios. While our research pointed to Negril, we opted for Ocho Rios on the basis of additional on-the-ground advice by our extended family that live in Jamaica. We also decided that a more intimate resort located on the beach would be preferable to a large all-inclusive however, we soon discovered that the activities that we understood would be abundantly available were only to be found at the much larger all-inclusive resorts. We tend to agree with some aspects of previous reviews that distinguish between expectations of the term “resort” versus what we might describe as an apartment complex. Chrisann’s Beach Resort is definitely the latter. The sea views were very nice and the breeze welcomed; however, the “beach” aspect of the property was not what we had envisioned. While it was great that it was private and that there was a breaker, we had anticipated that we might enjoy evening strolls along the beach. We stayed in unit # 10 and found it to be nice, although if you plan to lounge, the sofa is very compact and requires some horizontal gymnastics to maneuver with two people! The kitchen, while a bit constrained, was reasonably well-stocked with utensils. The loft layout was nice and we are sure that we must have had the most effective a/c in the complex! One just needs to be very careful descending the stairs because the tread depths are shallow and there are a couple of generous risers that may surprise you at the bottom of the stair, so just as a note of caution – take care in this area. The bed was spacious and comfortable however the dressers were locked and there was no place to hang one’s clothes, so we really did feel as though we were “living out of a suit case”! The staff were very kind and helpful. Of particular help to us was having the owner of the condo offer detailed insights and tips well in advance of our stay. Thanks Marian!! We hired a well-known taxi driver – Kevin – he was fantastic! We then used him for all of our “custom” travel needs. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to relocate to unit # 22 for the last two nights of our stay. Our move to this unit left us very disappointed – it really ought to be upgraded – sure unit # 24 is quite special, but some units fall well below that threshold.

Our 3rd stay at Chrisanns

We are Merrick and Malika from Paris. We came back to Chrisanns for the 3rd time because it's a place where you can be at peace. Surroundings are idyllic. The view from the reception is just breathtaking, the sea is awesome. the garden is full of coconut trees, palm trees, and other wonderful tropical vegetation like aloe vera. When you're sat on the gazebo, you have a complete view of the caribbean sea and the coast line. The staff are very nice and helpful. The resort is well maintained : the pool and the sea are clean, the garden also. Regarding the apartment, it's beautiful, colourful, and clean. Everything is there to make sure you have a wonderful stay. Actually, you feel like you're at home with the added bonus of the sun and the sea. We would recommend a stay at Chrisanns apartment 10 to anyone who's looking for a little piece of paradise.
