Treasure Beach is a sleepy little laid back village that attracts tourists who want to avoid the hustle of commercialism and escape to a quiet and off-beat Jamaican town. Billy’s Bay is one of five coves that stretch for miles along the Caribbean Sea. If you are looking for exciting nightlife, you may want to consider Negril or Montego Bay.
Treasure Beach offers a natural breath-taking beauty that surrounds the south coast with some of the most spectacular sites in Jamaica. Whether you are interested in visiting the falls, snorkelling and exploring the colourful coral reef, or relaxing and kicking back with a Red Stripe Beer and treating your palette to an authentic Jamaican dish, there’s something for everyone.
You can find more information on things to do and places to eat here.
Our private driveway will lead you directly to the beach – you are literally just steps away to the beach. You can also explore five other beaches along 6 miles of coastline perfect for a relaxing walk, swim, snorkel or body-surfing experience.
Please Note: Weather conditions and riptides change depending on the season. It’s always best to check with our villa staff to determine the safest areas to swim before planning an outing. Our staff is committed to ensuring you have an enjoyable and safe vacation.
