I called the day before and spoke with someone about confirming late check-in. Unfortunately nobody was available to check me in or answer any of my calls. I had a very long journey to this place and ended up having to stay with the taxi driver whome I didn't know. The worst part is the location was falsely advertised. The place was far from civilization.

No one told me that kings worth is high up in the mountain top, going up the mountain, i was so frightened i thought i was going to die. my entire stay, I was on the edge. Jamaica is a beautiful place along with its people. if you like nature and mountain climbing then stay at Kings Worth. I would say this only i continue my stay because of a young man who runs the entire place who’s name is TJ, he was very hospitable, and made me forget about everything else what was going wrong on my trip. Thank you TJ for everything you did for us. Bear in mind. It’s also very costly to get up the mountain and to come down the mountain each day. Make sure you take water and food up there, they have a share kitchen you can use to cook. the bathroom is very very old and out dated. If you are not in good health to walk up at least 50 or more stairs to your room, don’t book.

The location is the uniqueness of this property, you are able to see multiple Parishes on the Island, and of course, to wake up every morning to the grandness of the Blue Mountain Peak and its ranges as the backdrop for your view is breathtaking. Hey if you want to conquer the great outdoors in one of the safest places on the Island then this is for you, want to Hike? do mountain biking or do your 5K or 10K run as I did? with cool the mountian breeze blanketing you up and down the peaks and valleys then make haste and book your spot.

Up in the mountains away from the noise of the city. Quiet and relaxing. Cool at night and shade during the day. When the shuttle picks you up you get a personal tour of the city while on your way to the property. The owner Courtney is super helpful and caring. Always checking to see if everything is ok.

The property was way up in the mountain. I did not like that, the property reported that they were closed to Bob Marley museum and that wasn't true. The parking was terrible none really, you have to park in a alley way with no security and you park at your own risk, if your car is broken into that's on you. The property advertised breakfast is serve however, I was told I can buy my own food and cook. I booked for 2 weeks and I never spend one day at hotel because it was too far for me to commute during the rainy seasons with land slides daily covering the roads to and from. It rained the entire two weeks while I was there. I did not feel safe at this property at all. The property did refund 1 week that I hade requested since I wasn't able to returned the keys until a week later. I am not sure if this will be a property I will ever visit in the future.

I drove all the way up there to find that the property was empty, no one at the door, no one to respond anywhere. I had no phone or internet so after 30 minutes of waiting I left and had to sleep at a hotel near the airport. I contacted them and they were extremely rude and denied me a refund. I’ve used Expedia all over the world and this is the first time I’ve left a poor review. I always look for the small remote places, and didn’t mind driving far to get here, but their carelessness and total abandon was truly disappointing.

This was a great location, however if you have never driven in Jamaica , I recommend using the shuttle especially if it is your first time. The view was breath taking, peaceful and serene. The owner what can I say? There is no better, Picked me up from KIN, gave me a grand tour and history of Kingston. He was super helpful and Knowledgeable. If you do no speak Patois/Patwah, you will understand every word that comes out of his mouth. I would definitely recommend staying here. I will be returning soon in Feb. 2019
