I have read all of the reviews and I just cannot relate the high ratings to the place where I stayed this week. Yes, the location is good: it is a very short walk from the Bob Marley museum and Devon House (in the opposite direction). It is along a main bus route and it is a very quiet side... More

You are greeted daily with genuine smiles and willing attitudes to make your stay memorable. A special thanks to Ms, S. Burke, Ms. D. Blackwood, Mr. W. Robinson, Mr. G. Rowe and Mr.... More

Shirley Retreat House is a pleasant guesthouse. It's warm tangerine color is inviting.

Given that is located on a busy main road, you turn off onto a drive and thereafter you dont hear any traffic noise and it is very peaceful. Staff are always friendly and helpful. They serve three meals a day but you have... More
