a diamond in the ruff
Beautiful Resort in St Mary’s Jamaica. It is about 15mins from Ocho Rios. You must have a car or bear the expense of local taxis to get to Ocho Rios and other attractions.My husband and I had a wonderful time.The hotel sits on a beautiful beach.Very private and secure.Security is there 24/7.The only problem was the lack of TV service for the entire New YEars weekend. There was a cable problem which took a couple days to fix. But its Jamaica everything takes longer....

Can’t complain
I stayed at Chrisanns with my son and husband for 2 weeks (May-June 2007). It is a very nice family friendly hotel. It was an actual apartment with your own little kitchen area (with pots, pans, dishes, fridge, micowave)and all. The only thing that was a lie was the DVD/CD player (there are none) but you had a few good cable channels that actually worked. If you looking for a honeymoon spot that is low key or a vacation for the family to relax......this hotel is very nice. The power went out a few times and the Cable had a few hours where it did not work. But that’s a whole Jamacia kind of thing.........not the hotel. Most importantly.......they have good hot water to shower and bath!! The pool was lovely and the little beach area was also nice. The air conditioner worked great throughout our trip. There was days we did not need it. And the cleaning staff was wonderful. The gardener give us some Coconuts. It was a bit of a ride from MoBay Airport (by bus) for about $25 dollars, which is very cheap.
Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks
If you coming from the states, try to bring your own little food items for the microwave and ice tea mix........... it’s cheaper. There is a wholesale store across the street down the road for food shopping. IF YOU PLAN TO TAKE "WHITE RUM" BACK TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS, DO BUY IT BEFORE YOU GO TO THE AIRPORT. It’s cheaper but they will take it at the AIRPORT. If you go to DUNN’s RIVER FALLS.........stay you just moved to the country or they will charge you the tourist rate

Quiet, cozy, and quite beautiful!
I visited Chrissans in March of 2007 and it was far better then what I had expected for a budget hotel! I was concerned being a female traveling alone on my my first visit to Jamaice, but I felt completely at ease at Chrissans. What a pleasant vacation! It’s 2 hrs from the airport, a small town about 15 minutes east of Ocho Rios. The was hardly anyone staying when I visited and I had the pool and private beach to myself most of the time there. I was upgraded to a deluxe suite, much to my surprise upon checking in - without even asking for one! The AC worked well, and the suite was clean, colorful, and updated. (I was in Apt #10, with a sleeping loft) But nothing is perfect, and there were a couple of cons. The bed linens as well as the towels left something to be desired. The security is supposed to be 24 hrs, though at one point I came back to the hotel at 11:00 pm and the gates were wide open with no security guard in sight. (Though he wasn’t too far, I was able to find him in about 10 minutes). Also, make sure you set up your return ride to the airport when you get there...and confirm the time frequently. I was supposed to be picked up at 1:00, but found out at 11:30 that this was not the case, and I needed to be ready by 12:00. But other than those couple of minor inconveniences, which are bound to happen wherever you go, I really had a fabulous time. I would definitely return to Chrissans and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet getaway!
Traveler's tip on dining
There were two places to eat across the street, Glenn’s and Tower Jerk. Both had terrific food and were quite hospitable. There’s no food at Chrissan’s, but the maintance man will climb the palm trees and cut open a coconut for you any time you like!
