Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Hart Cove allows children of all ages to roam free, giving them a wealth of unique opportunities to choose from. The property’s main pool contains a shallow area, designed especially for children to splash around in, ensuring that they are safe and well during their stay. Adding on to this, if you are looking to go kayaking, the staff can offer smaller life jackets that are suitable for children.
In terms of sleeping arrangements, guests can combine bedrooms 1,2, and 7 to create a spacious family-sized suite. This is perfect for making sure that children are comfortable and feel safe enough to sleep throughout the night. If your family uses a Nanny for childcare purposes, Villa Hart Cove allows them to sleep in the same room as your children. Again, this helps the villa feel like a haven and offers children the same level of peace and tranquility they would experience back home.
Villa Hart Cove is also perfect for teenagers as the property contains widespread internet access. This allows them to remain connected and entertained on a variety of devices. Moreover, this property also has a 1/4 size basketball court as well as a 5-hole putting green. This gives children the chance to expel any excess energy and maintain an active lifestyle while on holiday. This property also contains a charming lawn area that offers enough space for children to play games freely. The lawn area is also home to an oversized sandbox, helping children gain a new sensory experience during their stay.
With regard to Ocho Rios, there is an abundance of fun things for children to enjoy. The Rastafari Indigenous Village allows children to gain personal insight into the inspiring religion of Rastafarianism. Located just a 2-hour drive away from Villa Hart Cove, this space takes guests on a spell-binding journey, giving them a chance to truly understand the universal connections brought on by Rastafarianism. This is an experience like none other, giving younger guests a unique opportunity to step out of their normal comfort zone.

Villa Staff at this property:
A full-time dedicated chef, assistant cook, butler, housekeepers, gardener, personal laundress, pool and beach man attend exclusively to your villa.
Your cook will handle grocery shopping and meal preparation. They will pre-purchase your first few meals plus pantry staples, then finish the week's shopping after meeting with you. At week's end, they will present receipts for all food and beverage and reconcile your account. A typical grocery budget is $65-$75 per adult per day and $20-25 per day for preteens. This may vary up or down depending on market prices and menus.(more luxurious items such as shrimp, lobster, imported meats and Champagne will incur a further charge).
Your cook will also pre-purchase a small starter bar (a few bottles of Red Stripe, moderately-priced wine and rum). Additional alcohol requests will increase your budget. If you wish to go to the various markets with them, you are welcome. Otherwise, simply review your tastes and distastes with them and they'll handle it all while you stay at the villa and relax.
A nanny can be arranged for an average of $12 per hour. Guests should plan to add approximately $20 per day for food for their nanny.
For any requests simply fill in the concierge request form or contact the Oliver’s Concierge Team.
Please note that all extras are subject to availability and must be requested in advance of the holiday (prices on request). Due to some rural/remote locations, not all services will be available at all properties. However, we will always do our best to fulfil your requests!
