Geejam - originally founded by music producer Jon Baker as a
recording hideaway that played host to No Doubt, Common, India.Arie,
Björk and Gorillaz, among others, Baker has now joined forces with
fellow music industry veteran Steve Beaver to metamorphosize
Geejam into an insider escape.
The result? A stylish equilibrium between ultra modern technology and
the intrinsic grace of Jamaica’s organic island vibe and
sensibility.Unsurpassed digital amenities and contemporary feel redefine
the traditional Caribbean accommodation. Here, Apple iTV comes standard,
as does the lush jungle atmosphere.

Located on six acres of the lush San San Estate, the property extends
from the foothills of the John Crow and Blue Mountain chains to the
Caribbean beachfront. A mix of self-contained deluxe cabins, suites and
villas,
Geejam’s sleek design is fused with a rootsy tropical attitude.
Within immediate proximity is Frenchman’s Cove -- voted by Condé Nast as
one of the world’s top five beaches -- and the equally enchanting Blue
Lagoon, Geejam sits tall amongst several other stunning beaches. The
property borders Drapers, a little known village until Gwen Stefani of
No Doubt gave it props at the 2003 Grammy Awards, as a result of the
band recording their last album at
Geejam.
A ten-minute drive west will find you in the historic town of Port
Antonio, the capital town of the parish of Portland, located on the
northeast coast of Jamaica and
shrouded by the Blue Mountains.
Home to the Errol Flynn marina, it boasts a thriving hub of local
culture, with a varied nightlife, including Ska bars, Reggae
sound-systems and nightclubs. Also within easy reach are excursions to
the cascading Scatter, Reich and Somerset waterfalls -- a day’s rafting
being a must at one or more of these extraordinary natural wonders.
Hiking and jet skiing are also popular sports in this part of the
island.
Accommodations
Sprawling vistas, cloistered tropical niches, breathtaking beachfront
and forest hideaways make
Geejam a singular high-end resort experience. The sea air, the ocean
sun and the balmy Caribbean breeze emote a twenty-four-seven atmosphere
of organic elegance, capturing that mystical spirit of the natural high,
while preserving the shabby chic vibe that is intrinsic to all Island
Outpost properties.
A well-proportioned mix of upscale interiors matched with the intrinsic
beauty of the natural environment enlivens the senses. The treated wood
decks, palm tree-lined stone paths and groves of avocado, breadfruit,
sour sop, cashew nut, plum apple and star fruit trees combine to create
a Caribbean Garden of Eden in the womb of a tropical paradise. The
centerpiece, which also serves as the foundational structure of the
Bushbar, is composed of two three hundred year-old fig trees whose
majestic sweep add a sublime scale to the already awesome indigenous
landscape.
Amenities
The amenities at
Geejam are upscale while maintaining organic standards. Subtle,
streamlined patio furnishings, hidden speakers and low-lit walkways
imbue an air of forward-thinking chic. The Day Dream canopy deck is the
best spot from which to view the waterfall, featured at the center of
the property. Fusing sleek design with a rootsy tropical attitude, it
also offers one of the best places on the property for luxury lounging.
All rooms throughout the property are equipped with state-of-the-art
technology, spa-quality steam rooms and showers, and flawless
contemporary design. The Hans Grohe and Philippe Starck line of deluxe
bathroom settings, integrated interior design and Barlow Tyrie outdoor
furnishings perfectly balance the tropical architecture of the Bushbar,
lounges, and outdoor verandas.
The following amenities can be found in each guest room on the
property:
-
500 thread-count cotton sheets
-
Hard wood floors and custom-made blackout blinds, all of which add
to the finely orchestrated palette of ‘über-luxury’ ethos.
-
Some of the bathrooms are highlighted by a spa-quality steam-room
within the shower.
-
A compact digital surround sound system exists in each room, going
by the pseudonym of George, which allows you to view Apple iTV
(offering an ever-expanding menu of movies to choose from), and play
and charge an iPod, all in the comfort of your room.
-
On arrival, a cell phone is provided to guests, for use throughout
their stay, thereby enabling communication with all the hotel
