How many of us start of the year to just fizzle before the end of the season? Some of it is that we expect our battery to run fully for long lengths of time with no pause. This is so far from the truth. It is the pause that helps us to have more energy! Let us dive into a transformation vacation like no other. Come hang with diaspora and visitors to the island. Let us explore some gems and make new friends along the way.
About Donna & Norma of Phoenix Serenity Villa & Tours and Your Phoenix is Rising Wellness Center:
Welcome to our home in Negril Jamaica. I am a Registered Nurse and certified Nurse coach who believes in natural and alternative medicine. My wife Norma is one of the most gifted Massage Therapists that I know. We have experienced all kinds of modalities for healing. The best modality that we have found is just rest and relaxation. We encourage clients to connect to optimal health by hitting the pause button in order to replenish the body's energy.
When I migrated from Jamaica at 16 years old, it was always my dream to return and to share my home with my friends. My personal trauma could not keep me away from my people and the land. My culture was everywhere. The food, the music, the love, never left me. Family stuff aside, I needed to be swimming in the clear sea and walking in the lush hills to soothe my soul. As an adult, I have been healing myself and have returned to my island home to rest and replenish my body, mind and spirit. Serenity villa in Negril, is a peaceful respite from the busyness of my everyday life. My wife Norma is a Licensed Massage Therapist who has the most blessed hands you will ever encounter. In order to help to heal humanity, we have created this wellness retreat and respite home with our amazing children and grandchildren.
I now go to Jamaica to reset and recharge. I invite you to do the same at our beautiful vacation villa. Some people like the peaceful quiet of our home at Phoenix Serenity Villa and may hardly leave the property. Guests may decide to take in the sun on a yoga mat on the soft grass or just have a drink or smoke on the veranda. Others may decide to have an occasional (10 mins) walk to the beach or to visit our neighborhood bars and restaurants within walking distance from the house. Others, may prefer to light up the town. For those who long for adventure and nightlife, Negril does not disappoint! Negril has a wide range of restaurants, bars, shops, and resorts (you can experience them with a day or night pass, the best of both worlds). The iconic Seven Mile Beach is only a short car ride away.
Book now to begin the journey to your transformative Jamaican vacation. I can't wait to see you there. Big up yuself and welcome to Jam rock!
One love,
Donna & Norma

Rooms are based on one person in the bed. Some rooms will have a roommate. Each additional person that would like to share a bed in the room, will be charged according to food, excursions, etc, please text us at 352-816-3661 to add people to your room.
We reserve the right to not have kids unless we are hosting a family. The reason for this is that a lot of adults want to escape the kids for couple time. To be fair to other people, we limit kids only to family events. Thanks for understanding.
Explore in our own van, lovingly called "Max", around the island with our own driver. A lot of the excursions are a little off the beaten path, in all the best ways. Connect to the hills of Jamaica as well as its beaches, caves and falls. This is a unique fusion of family and tourist immersion into our island culture.
All deposits are non-refundable. Please get travel insurance for unforeseen needs.
