I decided to spend my birthday weekend at Marblue Domicil and 12 of my friends accompanied me. It was perfect, not only the hotel but the ambience and allure of Treasure Beach.
The staff were attentive and the food great. Breakfast was a real treat, course after course of local and traditional items and the pineapples were ooh so ooooo sweet.
Captain Denis took all of us on a boat ride up the Black River and gave us the adventure of a lifetime . We rested at a shop on the river bank and had freshly baked crabback . Afterwards we ventured out to sea to the Pelican bar for a few rounds of ice cold Red Stripe beer. This is a man made wooden structure in the middle of the ocean on a white sand bank. My American guests were thrilled beyond belief.
I would return to Marblue at the drop of a pin. Thanks Axel, Andrea, Tommy, Elisha, Cheryl , Claudette, Devane, Dashel and of course our Chef, the indomitable ' Preacher'

Hi to everyone at Marblue - and thank you all so much for another fantastic visit.

We stayed at Marblue in November 2005 and wrote a review after that visit. We returned to stay for a week in April 2007. Since staying here in 2005 I have travelled alot but have not found anywhere as welcoming, relaxing and stylish without being at all pretentious. I was very surprised to find that staying at Marblue a second time was even better - I would not have thought this was possible!

Our welcome was lovely - like old friends and made us feel very special. As I wrote in my last review, the hotel is small, personal, stylish and excellent food. A private plunge pool (which is larger than I envisaged) was a fantastic addition to our room. There is private space to sunbathe around the plunge pool and a fab seat built into a corner which was perfect for reading whilst sitting waist deep in the pool.

Andrea and Axel have also built a bar and restaurant by the beach. It is a very relaxed environment and we felt quite overwhelmed by the stunning views over the beach and the sea whilst we ate. For some reason this was particularly remarkable at breakfast - and makes for a very peaceful start to your day. The food, as ever, was first class. Axel loves to create and often talked about ideas for the menu for the following day. He likes to take account of personal likes and dislikes along with what fresh produce is available. The menu really is created on that basis - handwritten each day.

Thank you all so much for making this another fantastic visit. We have never returned to the same hotel on holiday before and cannot wait to come back again. You have created something very special.

My wife and I went down to Jamaica for our honeymoon in January of 2006. The idea of having a mass produced vacation wasn't what we wanted, we wanted to stay in a nice place but long lines and buffets were not our cup of tea. We chose to stay in a couple of places including Marblue and Tensing Pen.

Marblue is really really nice. We stayed in one of the Verandah suites and it was great. When we showed up there was a botttle of complimentary champagne, the food was always exceptional and the hotel was spotless. When we were there we were the only guests (which was odd since I am not used such a high level of service) but I am sure that Marblue will soon be one of those places where it will be impossible to find an open room. We always went with the suggested meals and the food was really really good. Make sure you try a traditional breakfast.

While we were in Treasure beach we wandered the streets visiting local bras and restaurants and never felt unsafe and we were also never solicited for stuff. This was really nice, it made us feel like were were almost local and that our Jamaica experience was "more real" then the all-inclusive mega-resorts.

The beach was rocky and the waves crashed in front of the hotel so there was no swimming close to the hotel in the sea but the hotel did have 2 small clean pools and were amused by an angry little crab in the rocks.

Captain Dennis took us to see the aligators and to the peican bar, we also went to Ys Falls, had the roadside shrimp, and had jerk chicken at Ruby's place. I highly recommend it all.

If you are into the idea of staying in a huge resort Marblue may not be for you. It is really intimate. If the idea appeals to you of staying close to the locals in a really nice romantic place with only a handfull of other suites, I can't recommend Marblue more highly. I plan to return.

I stayed for four nights in February and I had a wonderful time. I was greeted by the owner on my arrival who gave me a free upgrade upon check in along with a complimentary glass of wine. My room had a verandah with a view of the beach; it was heaven waking up to the sound of the waves every morning. I traveled alone but at no point did I feel lonely. The staff made me feel like a part of the family. My nightly ritual was to go to the bar and chat with the bartender Tommy he is absolutely hysterical. During the days I would go for walks along the beach or go swimming. You must do the Pelican Bar tour with Dennis he will pick you up on his boat. Just ask a member of the staff and they will arrange it. Overall I had a wonderful time and will definitely be going back.
