Beachfront Villa, Staff, Boat, Pool, Tennis, Gated

ELSEWHERE by the SEA is a stunning beachfront villa in the upscale gated community of Lagoons, just 20 minutes from the Montego Bay international airport. The beach, pool and expansive outdoor living area make it the perfect location to celebrate a special occasion, gather for a family holiday or indulge in an adult getaway.

5 beautifully decorated bedrooms, each with a private bath, sleep up to 12 guests. Four King bedrooms and one bedroom with a pair of twins (that can be made into a king) comfortably sleep five couples. An additional bunk bed in the twin room can accommodate two additional children or teenagers.

The home is complemented by a large veranda and bar area, perfect for enjoying beautiful sunsets over the Caribbean Sea while sipping a frosty cocktail. Continue your evening with a special dinner prepared by your private chef and served on the breezy veranda, the sandy beach or the dock with the water glistening around you. A magical evening!

The private pool features a Baja deck for tanning and an infinity edge that blends seamlessly into the beautiful Caribbean Sea. The pool deck provides access to a lovely beach that is suitable for watersport activities and comes with complimentary kayaks and paddleboards.

Elsewhere is located in a protected sanctuary with abundant marine life right off the dock. Explore the waters surrounding Elsewhere with our newest addition to the property, Anywhere, a 26 ft power catamaran perfect for sunset cruises, snorkeling trips or a tour of Montego Bay with a stop at Doctor's Cave beach or Margaritaville. A complimentary sunset cruise or reef snorkeling trip with our captain is included for all rentals of seven days or more. Additional trips can be arrange with the captain at a reduced price.

For swimming in the sea, we recommend a short boat or car ride to Doctors Cave Beach or a short walk to the private residence beach (formerly Hard Rock Beach Club).

In addition to your private villa, guests have access to the amenities of the Lagoons including a playground and tennis courts. Within minutes of the villa is the Montego Bay Yacht Club, the Houseboat Restaurant, and the private residents beach (near the former Hard Rock Cafe Beach Club). You will be a few minutes from five top notch golf courses and all that Montego Bay has to offer!

Incredible family vacation

Our family had an amazing time at elsewhere and couldn't have asked for anything better. Kemoy was an amazing jack of all trades, bartender, boat captain and helped us organize all of our excursions. Kass is a phenomenal chef, every meal better than the next. Rafik kept the property spotless and the beach pristine. Maureen kept all of our rooms tidied and laundry done and ironed. We had a fantastic relaxing week and wish we could live like this all the time. We hope to come back sometime soon!

We had the best vacation anyone could wish for~

The property is simply beautiful, from the gorgeous outdoor space overlooking the lagoon and the lovely pool, to each and every bedroom and bathroom and all of the other rooms in the house. Aside from the breathtaking beauty, the staff is what makes this property fabulous. They are warm, engaging, friendly and terrific at their jobs. There is nothing critical I have to say at all!

Great Family vacation

We spent a week w children, spouses and 3 grandchildren under 3. All of us are well traveled. Things couldn’t have worked out better. Everyone had their space, and adapted to everything in a few hours. Food was great Kassandra’s food was well prepared, flavorful and catered to everyone’s taste.Including the babies and toddler. Kemoy was great in taking care of the 10 of us, from meal service, to bartending to taking us out on the boat. The rest of staff was cordial and friendly. Except for a day of snorkeling and some going scuba diving, we never left the property There’s not much to improve upon

Sit back enjoy the view, service and food.

A very upscale house with all the amenities of a 5 star resort. Special attention is given to the smallest detail. We arrived during Christmas season with many grandchildren expecting Santa. They were not disappointed as the Christmas tree was splendid. Five star staff attends to cleaning, yardwork, boat and Michelin Star meals. On food go local - it's the best.

Amazing hospitality

Everything was perfect - the staff were extremely welcoming and accomodating, the neighbourhood was very safe and secure and the house was wonderful. Our toddler loved feeding fish from the dock and looking for starfish. The food was out of this world !

Nothing short of Amazing

Where to start… this was hands down the best vacation my family has ever taken. Kassandra is an INCREDIBLE chef!!! Every meal I thought the food couldn’t get better and it did. Heck I even decided to spend time in the kitchen with her to figure out exactly her recipes. The staff was amazing, kind and helpful. I would come back here without hesitation. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon.

Amazing house and food!

Could not recommend this place more! The staff are so nice and helpful. The food was SO good! We only went out for one meal and it wasn’t nearly as good as the dinners the chef prepared at home. The house itself is great. Very modern and comfortable and well decorated. Absolutely no complaints!!!

Relaxing and Fun Family Vacation!

Our stay in Jamaica was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beauty of the rooms. The food was exceptional. The location itself was perfect, providing us with breathtaking views and a serene environment. Half of our party visited 6 years ago, and we cannot wait to reserve our next stay hopefully sooner than later!

Absolutely what we needed!

From the moment we stepped off the airplane to being dropped back off at the airport, we were taken care of! This was one of the best experiences the 6 of us had ever had. The property was amazing and well thought out. We were able to use every space created for guests and enjoyed every bit of it. Our own private beach and an infinity pool to soak in all day. We took the boat out for a sunset cruise and were able to see the bioluminescence. The staff was beyond expected and the food was amazing! We will definitely be coming back very soon!

Once you stay here you won’t want to vacation anywhere else.

This was our 2nd trip to Elsewhere and we are still recommending it to all of our friends because it’s by far the best vacation we have ever been on. The staff and food elevates this place to the next level when it comes to vacationing. We can’t wait to go back for our 3rd trip.

Outstanding, in every way

Elsewhere is the Best! I was a little skeptical of a staffed house. I thought having extra people around would be a negative. Boy, was I wrong. The staff (Kassandra, Kemoy, Maureen, and Rafiq) were absolutely fabulous. The food Kassandra prepared was some of the best I've ever had. All of the staff were so friendly, accommodating, and just wonderful people. The house is great, too. We were there with four kids ages 4, 2, 2, and 1. We spent almost all of our time in the pool or on the private beach right next to the pool (or eating the wonderful food, or drinking the great frozen drinks made by Rafiq, or on the boat with Kemoy). The pool layout is great, with a very shallow end and a nice ledge all around. Again, perfect for the little ones. The house is exactly as pictured. Plenty of places to sit and spread out, so none of the 12 of us there felt like we were on top of each other. Plus Maureen does your laundry every day! It was so nice to get back home after a week of vacation with everything already washed! Oh ... and there is a nice playground for the little ones just a two-minute walk from the house. The house is at the end of a gated street - very quiet, peaceful and safe. The place truly is perfect, and we can't wait to go back again - we're already looking at dates for the next visit!

Absolutely amazing villa in perfect location

Elsewhere by the Sea was phenomenal in every way. We had a group of 7 women on a girls trip and the staff catered to our every need. The location is beautiful, surrounded by water and located in a very safe gated community. Kayaks and paddle boards were available at any time and the boat on the property was perfect for the 7 of us. Cassandra made us appetizers and Kemoy filled a cooler and continued to pour amazing drinks while we watched the sunset. We gave carte Blanche to Cassandra and she most definitely didn’t disappoint! The breakfast spread every morning was amazing and the dinners had such variety and were all so tasty from lobster to jerk chicken, barbarcued ribs, curry chicken … we were never hungry! Kemoy served us drinks by the pool, and kept the drinks coming all day long. Maureen did our laundry everyday, kept our rooms spotless and all the staff had a huge smile on their face at all times. I can’t recommend this villa more! We will be back!
