Andrea, the hostess, was very welcoming, and the property had a homely feeling to it. There was a welcome sign with my name on it, and I was offered a welcome beverage. The various rooms were tastefully decorated with a variety of artwork. My room was very spacious, and I also had a balcony with chairs and a table. It was relaxing to sit there in the early mornings. The bed was very comfortable, and there were several hangers in the closet. There were both a.c. and a ceiling fan. I mainly used the ceiling fan as the weather wasn't that warm for me. There was a TV in my room, but I never watched it. The flow of the water in the bathroom was very good, and the toiletries were in good sized bottles which were refilled if needed. They also smelt nice. I liked that there were hooks behind the bathroom door and a towel rack. I also noticed that there was an additional restroom outside my room which I thought to be helpful in the event that you are sharing your room and the bedroom restroom is occupied. The grounds were well kept and had a variety of fruit trees. The pool was kid-friendly, and there were both a restroom and a changing room along with an outdoor shower. Two of my favourite spots were the hammock under the breadfruit tree (perfect after sightseeing), and the sitting area by the upstairs balcony to enjoy my evening tea. There was also a tea station which I found to be very handy. I only had breakfast at the property, and it was a great way to start the day. It included fruits, porridge, freshly made juice, and a typical Jamaican breakfast with ground provisions. As stated on the website, a pretty decent beach is seven minutes walk away, and the town is 5 minutes walk away using a shortcut. The neighbourhood is safe, and there are usually persons around. Finally, the location was ideally located especially if you are travelling via Knutsford Express. Andrea was even kind enough to take me to Knutsford Express when I was departing.

That I couldn't have stayed a little longer.

This B&B is fantastic. The home feels very comfortable. We had a great trip getting to know the staff and other visitors. The chef makes wonderful breakfasts (and optional dinners for extra$). Andrea, the owner, was not present that week, but you can tell that she has worked really hard to develop this amazing business. The staff was very responsive to any of our needs.

If you are staying at the Blue Paloma, you should realize that the town of Lucea is not touristy at all. Even though this is what we were looking for, it was a bit difficult to navigate. We decided to head back to Montego Bay and rent a car, which made things much better. The B&B is a bit of an island (think food, attractions, etc). If you want to hunker down and stay at a high end B&B and just sit by a great pool, it is fantastic. If you are a bit more adventurous, you need to plan on transportation.

It is with sad regret that I have to write this review, only because I am leaving today. No that I’ve had a moment of silence, it was so nice to see a place that is EXACTLY what you see in the pics. Although I did not get the opportunity to meet Andrea, she texted me throughout my stay to ensure my stay was going well, which warmed my heart. She has THE BEST staff in Jamaica!! Tanya, Tamara, Conroy, Monessa, and everyone were all so personable and welcoming!! The room was perfect and had all I the accommodations that I needed. I slept like I was in my own bed! Daily room cleaning while I was out was a nice touch after a long day. The food was delicious! Daily 3 course chef’s choice breakfast and 3 course dinner is by request.The pool was sparkling clean!! I got a poolside massage that was the best I have ever experienced!! I could tell that Jodie is a master of her craft. This was my best vacation ever!! I began planning a girls trip my first day! I will ABSOLUTELY be back here very soon!!

NOTHING!!

Shout out to Miss Tanya, Mr. Robert and Chef Conroy (honorable mention to Chef Monessa and Arethea). This was my first stay at a Bed and Brreakfast and the bar has been set pretty high. The staff was so attentive and friendly, it truly felt like home away from home. I look forward to returning to Jamaica and Blue Paloma is #1 on the list for my stay. Conroy prepared a delicious breakfast each morning and a delicious dinner the evening we dined in. Tanya was so welcoming wearing a smile at all times and truly understands customer service. Staying at a bed and breakfast was a great experience and definitely has value. The Blue Paloma was welcoming and clean. No sleep was lost as the bedding was very comfortable. Met some wonderful couples from Montreal, Toronto, Jamaica and South Dakota.

That we didn't make time to enjoy a barbecue by the pool.

The culinary experience was so great! The customer service experience was excellent! The establishment was well-kept and clean, and the it had a wonderful pool onsite. And the location was central to most of what a traveler in Tourist mode would want to have available, and even for someone who was not in that mode, it offered a very authentic experience of life on the local side of Jamaica. The owners and staff were very helpful in acclimating us to our surroundings, and educating us about local life. The excursion we opted to do was a drive out to Negril to walk along Seven Mile Beach, and that was with one of the curated extended team members. It was the most "touristy" thing that we did, aside from my own daily morning walkabouts (with camera in tow), and it was worth it! During my morning walks, I usually get to see the urban truths of a community (not always pretty to behold), but it always avails me a view of the soul of a place. This holds true of Lucea, as much as anywhere else, and the beauty of its people stays with me as a guest. I would highly recommend this location for the person who wants to actually have the AirBNB-style free-form vacation with access to people resources that only a local would have. Blue Paloma B&B is a winner, and I will definitely be a repeat guest (and there are quite a few people who feel the same way about this place, as I discovered while staying there.) I look forward to some of their future plans.

I would definitely have an in-room simplified quick start sheet (manual) for guests to understand how to properly operate the climate control system, etc. It did not pose a problem, and staff was generally available (with a quickness) to assist during the day and evening hours, but every bit of info helps.

The location was convenient and midway to Negril and Montego Bay. It was easy for hired drivers to find. The house was spacious and well maintained. It was definitely a great value. The private pool was a bonus! Breakfast was a well rounded meal with an abundance of healthy fruit. Dinner was made upon request and special menu requests were honored.

It was walking distance to the beachside but the area was not the tidiest beach. Need to take transportation to nearest clean public beach. There is also an option for day pass at a local resort. Grand Palladium was 10 minutes drive away.

The breakfast was real Authentic Jamaican-style natural juices, porridge, and a main course. there was no need for lunch after breakfast.

in my case, I went for relaxation and quiet time, since I am a small business owner this was perfect for me close to the beach and downtown area Andrea the owner, and her husband was very accommodating and helpful the blue Paloma massage special was excellent. there was nothing that I did not like. This was my first time in Hanover Jamaica and I will return soon a little hidden gem.

Friendly helpful staff. Nice pool. Nlgreat to be away from big tourist crowds and experience more of the Jamacian life. We felt very safe at Blue Paloma and walking in the neighbourhood. The little local beach nearby is a bonus.

Loud music playing well into the night and dogs barking and fighting in the middle of the night. Locals put boom boxes on top of their cars and drive around! Too bad there is so much litter on the sides of the road in this lovely country.

I pretty much enjoyed my entire experience. The location is in the historic town of Lucea, Jamaica. Everything is within walking distance. I would suggest comfortable shoes. There's a beautiful little beach about a 7 minute walk from the Blue Paloma. The breakfast was amazing each morning. The entire staff was welcoming and super attentive. I had the delight of meeting the owners and they were extremely nice and laid back. Will definitely be staying here again!

The only thing I didn't like was the platform bed. Although, the bed was extremely comfortable, the wooden platform that surrounded the bed was definitely a shin splitter lol. Aside from that no other complaints.

The staff is amazing! So friendly and helpful, miss Tanya helped get a Jamaican sim card for my phone, plus called me to be sure I was on the right bus when I decided to try a local bus to get towards Montego Bay! The food cooked for breakfast each day is mouth watering and very filling! Fruit, porridge, and then fried or cooked as the 3rd course! Dinner is likewise great with local Jamaican dishes cooked home-style, be sure to try this out while you stay, highly recommended. The room was spacious and clean with nice calming decor and a dream of a bed. The massage was also very good, would recommend you treat yourself to this if you have time.

Nothing, everything was great!!!
