Your Mystic Holywell experience begins with your pick-up from your hotel lobby by our friendly drivers. You are then driven in comfort on a scenic drive to the Blue Mountain Countryside. Holywell is the perfect place to escape and appreciate nature. On your way to Holywell, we will make our first stop at Craighton Estate Great House & Coffee Plantation Tour.

The 200-year-old Craighton Estate Great House has remained one of Jamaica’s best-preserved Georgian style houses. It is privately owned and is used exclusively as a prestigious summer home for Governors and clergymen of Jamaica who sought refuge from Kingston’s summer heat. Rated as the World’s #1 Coffee,  embark on a 1-hour tour,  to see the beauty of mother nature’s soil fertility, mountain mists and rainfall, which combine to make Jamaica’s premier, world-renowned coffee. About half a mile in the midst of the coffee field, behold a breathtaking view of Jamaica’s Coffee Farm.  For luck, be sure to ring the bell at the Craighton Gate.

Enjoy an authentic Jamaican lunch at Strawberry Hill restaurant before heading to Holywell.

It is now time for your overnight adventure at Holywell. Upon entering Holywell, you will receive the keys to your cabin. As you get settled in,  relish the breathtaking views of nature around you. As night falls, light up your fire pit, roast marshmallows and enjoy the wonders of the night as your gaze at the stars. Wake up at the crack of dawn to see the rise of the golden sun, then set your eyes on the lookout for the flock of angelic birds as they populate the sky in their numbers.  Afterwards, make your way to the nature trail for another exhilarating experience of a lifetime!

On your way back into Kingston, stop for sightseeing at New Castle to witness the construction that took place in 1841. Given to the Jamaican Force by Britain, It later became Jamaica’s Defense Force (JDF) Training Depot. Snap a photo by the cannons or the colourful badges painted on the high walls. At the end of the day, enjoy a comfortable ride back to your hotel with a heart filled with fresh air!
