A quiet place to chill

Arms of Charms is an 8-room guesthouse, bar and restaurant in a cul-de-sac in the quiet community of Rosewell between the towns of Old Harbour and May Pen about 90 minutes from Kingston. It’s a peaceful spot to chill away from city noises and major roads close to nature with splendid views of open greenspaces as well as the fishing village of Old Harbour Bay. Arms of Charms is also a convenient launch point to explore the nearby hot mineral spring waters of Salt River Springs and the Milk River Bath.

All the necessary amenities

Although a modest facility, the rooms at Arms of Charms come equipped with amenities such as microwave, fridge, a kettle, a hot tub, a flat-screen TV and private bathrooms. There is also a pool and a shared kitchen.

Very friendly towards ganja

Arms of Charms has an open-minded attitude towards ganja. Weed is prevalent in this region as just about everywhere else in Jamaica. Guests are allowed to smoke on the property and there are lots of local farmers from whom ganja can be purchased. The resort will be happy to arrange a ganja farm tour for guests looking to learn about Jamaican strains as well as the methods and practices of the local farmers. Ganja infused meals are available, on request

Dining at Arms of Charms

Guests who prefer to prepare their own meals can do so in a shared kitchen space. However, the bar, lounge and restaurants at the guesthouse serve up delicious fare all day and there are nearby options such as Hiddin Hut, Russell’s Restaurant, Repooh Seafood Bar and Restaurant, The Herbal Kitchen and Sherees FishSpot. There are also local cookshops and jerk joints for the more adventurous. Have questions about where to try? Just ask owner, Charmaine. She will also be happy to arrange transportation to fancier places in town.
