Superb day of guided tours with Marie. She is a Quebecer who lives in Jamaica and she is excellent at her job and very, very warm and kind. We visited Montego Bay and the surrounding area. To do again with her. Thanks to Marie xx
The staff was very fun and knowledgeable. We booked a workshop with our travel agency and everything was perfect. Thank you Marie :)!!!
Amazing experience from beginning to finish. Marie is so nice and creative. You feel so comfortable and what a nice activity to do Everyone should go and enjoy ☀️
Thanks Cybelle, what a pleasure to meet you! Can't wait for you to come back again, we now have a Yoga platform!!!
This is so original! My little family and i left with beautiful souvenir we can wear now. This is the best souvenir ever. We got to share a precious moment of creativity together. And the host is so lovely, nice, talented, and patient!!! I wish I could have this kind of creative activity everytime I travel!!!
My lovely, lets make it that every time you travel you come t Mobay and you get to do MORE souvenirs! We are soon going to start carving, musical instruments and body scrubs! Merci !!!!!
What an amazing unique experience while travelling to Jamaica. While enjoying this incredibly beautiful backyard, in a peaceful atmosphere, we made jewelry that is meaningful. I was able to use the shells I personally picked while walking on the beach. That’s part of what makes the experience so special. But not only that, Marie was just wonderful and creative. Would highly recommend the experience if you love art, nature, creative and unique experiences. ♥️♥️♥️
Thanks again for coming! It was lovely to see everyone creating and being relax and happy! Hope we get to do it again soon!!!!
creative for those who love to connect with a REAL life in Jamaica. nature and art, what a great mixt, with
Real connection! Thanks again for coming nd let us know next time you're in Mobay, would love to meet again!
I had the most amazing time under the ackee tree making a shell necklace with Marie. It was a lot of fun and a great way to meet like minded beautiful people ✨ thank you!!!
it was so nice meeting you and really hoping you will be back, we have a lot more to do now, and we're in the process of building a pool.... Yes!!!! Thanks again!!!
Marie is absolutely amazing! She is so creative and truly has a real talent for jewelry making. The materials that she uses are unique and stunning. The atmosphere where you work is so authentically Jamaican and serene. I am now able to return home with a memorable and beautiful keepsake of Jamaica! I would highly recommend this experience next time you are visiting Montego Bay!!! By the way, Marie is also French speaking, if you prefer… Date of experience: April 17, 2023
It was so nice meeting you and practicing your French (Oui oui oui!!!) Hoping you will come back soon, and this time maybe carve a calabash? Merci beaucoup mon amie!
What a beautiful day at the Somom property, making a beautiful necklace of shells harvested from the local olages! Comfortably settled well cooled under beautiful mature fruit trees and well guided by our charming hostess, Marie, an unforgettable moment! And what a joy to leave with this beautiful necklace created by us, which will remind us all year round of this beautiful moment in Jamaica!
Ah merci pour ces beaux commentaires! Au plaisir de vous revoir, peut-etre pendant la saison des avocats? C'est en Aout-Septembre! Merci encore!!!!
Thank you Marie for the great afternoon that broke up the semi-boredom that I had between sitting on the beach and eating! I actually felt like I accomplished something! The concept is brilliant. Instead of buying something at the craft market (which I still did anyways), I was able to make something beautiful and useful ! I definitely have a ton of shells at home from past trips and now I’m not scared to make more ! Thanks for teaching me a new skill! Loved your yard as well !!
Thank you so much for this beautiful lady! It was so inspiring meeting you and I will implement some of your ideas for sure! (Avocados are growing... if you can come in September you will go nuts!!) One Love
