Luxury Caribbean condos
Montego Bay real estate has a long and colorful history. Ever since its first European visitor, Christopher Columbus, landed in 1494, properties in Montego Bay have been recognized for their quaint beauty. Strangely enough, the name “Montego Bay” has less than quaint origins: it is believed to be a corruption of the Spanish “Bay of Lard”, a reference to the vast quantities of pigs’ lard shipped from its ports in the 16th century. The British drove the Spanish from their Montego Bay properties in 1655, and shortly thereafter established St James Parish, under which Montego Bay real estate still falls.
Today, Montego Bay is home to Jamaica’s largest port as well as its airport. Owners of Jamaica real estate near Montego Bay have easy access to the nearby cruise ship terminals and duty free shopping. Another great attraction to Montego Bay property owners is the fabulous Doctor’s Cave Beach. One of Jamaica’s most famous beaches, Doctor’s Cave beach boasts remarkable, clear Caribbean water.
Montego Bay Real Estate: Jamaica’s Crown
Montego Bay real estate is among Jamaica’s most desirable, both to ex patriots and to Jamaican nationals. Many wealthy Kingston residents purchase vacation properties in Montego Bay; to European and American buyers, Montego Bay real estate is always among the top choices.
With MoBay’s fine restaurants, elegant shopping, and spectacular natural setting, it’s little wonder that Montego Bay properties are in such demand. Add an excellent hospital (Cornwall Regional Hospital), scenic port and Jamaica’s top tourist resorts, and it’s easy to see why Montego Bay real estate is the first choice of discriminating home buyers.
Rose Hall: Home to some of the finest properties in Montego Bay
If real estate in Montego Bay is Jamaica’s crown, then Rose Hall is the jewel in the crown. Located on some of Jamaica’s most beautiful coastline, Rose Hall also boasts world-class golf courses and every conceivable amenity. The Palmyra, located in Rose Hall, is the most exciting real estate development in Montego Bay’s recent history. Those who are lucky enough to own one of these 500 exquisite residences will truly be blessed with the finest of Montego Bay properties.

By: Uri Nachimson | 01/01/2010Writers and poets have tried their best to describe the wonders and beauty of Tuscany. Their words are, for the most part, insufficiently shallow. But where the pen has failed, the eye and the brush reveal what can only be captured through the lines and form of color. Only the artist can express vividly the true language of the perceptions of our hearts and minds. True art appreciation lies in the visions we hold for ourselves.
