We’ve been coming to Jakes over the past 15 years, probably 6 stays total. There’s really exceptional staff, Shermaine, one of the managers is amazing and made our stay absolutely beautiful. He really took care of us. We’ve bounced around from their Calabash villa to standard rooms staying over ten days. Love the laid back vibe and the community of Treasure Beach- one of the best spots in Jamaica. The people are lovely and sweet. The food at Jake’s is very good and changes regularly- the smoked marlin dip with fried banana chips was incredible. All their rotating menu items hold their own. This last stay we noticed a slight downgrade on upkeep and bartending staff hospitality. It’s subtle and at first we thought there might be new owners. There’s biting ants around the pool and restaurant and you’d think that’s inconsequential but they’re hateful insects that leave a long maddening itch. All in all it’s an outstanding place and we’ll be back. They got smashed with Hurricane Beryl and with luck they’ll use the opportunity to regain their full luster.

Property is quiet and rustic which is good for people looking for quiet time. I would have loved an early morning coffee but the water in the fridge was icy and the coffee maker didn't work. No hot water in bathroom which is big negative. AC works.

Nice but disappointing
The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Location is really nice. However the stay wasn’t without issues. The room was nice however it had an ants problem which ended up all over our clothes and us getting bitten. We complained about this multiple times to get resolved and were informed the room had been sprayed however we don’t believe this was the case. Some of the sockets didn’t work however after informing reception this issue was resolved. The pictures are very deceiving as it said there was a private sandy beach however that is next door and open to the public. Spiders had been killed on the walls but not cleaned up. The lighting on the path to the room was bad and hard to see at night. Generally liked the stay but for the price it wasn’t worth it. We did manage to get an incident report created.

DO NOT GO TO JAKES
I have traveled extensively around Jamaica and the Caribbean. On a recent trip I made the trek to the south coast to stay at Jakes. I’ve heard mixed things for years so was aware it was a roll of the dice. In the interest of time, I’ll condense my experience. When I arrived I was not greeted, waited to check in. They have no help with luggage so I schleped my bags to the furthest reach of the property to an “ocean view villa”. The only view was of a weedy dirt patch, the patio is furnished with dirty rotten out wood furniture. The room sports only 2 lights with a 10 watt bulb making it necessary to use my phone flashlight to move around and unpack. The WiFi and AC did not work. The mosquitos were comparable to no one I’ve ever been and there are literally zero amenities in room. I stay in Rustic boutique hotels often- Jake’s is not rustic it is a dump. I went to the office to inquire about a coffee maker and possibly another light and was told no one was available to help me. I could check back in the morning. In the morning I had made arrangements to check out 3 days early. The manager was defensive and let me know Jake’s is “rustic”, I reached out to the main property manager for a week as did Hotels.com to persue a refund and after 17 attempts have not had acknowledgment or a call back from Colleen the manager. The room condition was poor but the overall service was unforgivable- especially on an island that has some of the warmest people in the world.
