STRAWBERRY HILL

HISTORY Though the original Georgian house on Strawberry Hill was destroyed in the hurricane of 1988, the new building maintains a traditional feel. The bungalows are built to meticulous nineteenth-century specifications. You sleep in mahogany four-poster beds shrouded in muslin, and gaze out at the stunning mountain landscape while swinging in your hammock. It epitomizes bygone colonial living at its finest, the perfect place to have a rum punch and wear white linen.

Strawberry Hill’s original owner was the fourth Earl of Orford, Horace Walpole, and his spirit still lingers. Walpole preferred the artistic life to the political — known for inventing the gothic novel, defending Richard III, and his wry correspondences, he had his own poetry press, an extensive and eclectic art collection, and liked nothing more than to hang out with his bohemian chums.

Strawberry Hill, the resort, was created by Chris Blackwell as a salon for friends like Bob Marley and the Rolling Stones, so, continuing in the tradition, guests are encouraged to mingle, debate, and jam. You can, however, also retire to a full body massage at our spa, or take a dip in the infinity pool suspended above the entire city of Kingston. At night, curl into your heated bed in the cool Blue Mountains air, and snack on the assorted refreshments in your mini bar.

Strawberry Hill continues to attract some of the world’s most serious creative talent. Kingston’s most charismatic residents venture up the long, winding road to camp out in the evenings, when musicians swap stories with scholars over dinner. So if you enjoy calm and soothing atmosphere, grab a cocktail, have a decent talk, and watch the sun slide into the mountains on the verandah at Strawberry Hill.
