    Highland House in Montego Bay, Jamaica - Highland House is an exquisite private home, owned by the famous Dorothy and Oscar Hammerstein in the 1960's. We at Jamaican Treasures have awarded Highland house The Five Star Service Award for January 2005. It has been an absolute pleasure to experience the top service and the warm welcome and friendliness from the staff at Highland House. Karl provides professional service and has been making guests very happy for over 26 years and he will make sure your holiday in paradise runs smoothly. Vincent the butler is most accommodating, smiles a lot and he will share his wonderful knowledge of Jamaica with you. And lovely Ena has been with Highland House for over 22 years and is the head cook for this wonderful estate.
    Island Home Magazine has featured this wonderful home in their magazine. In 2000, the current owner began extensive renovations to restore this magnificent villa to its former majestic grandeur. In her vision for the restoration, the owner led a team of Atlanta artists and decorators to artfully redesign each room's décor. The result is a splendid mix of artistic creativity woven together with a playful eye. These renovations have taken Highland house to a new level of luxury. With this team of professional designers, this property is one of the most glamorous estates in Jamaica.
