Description from owner

Description

Give us 2 to 3 days and we'll turn your vacation into an Adventure of Award Winning Food and Real Jamaican Culture that will be memories for years to come. Located 20 minutes outside of town on the south coast (roundtrip transportation available), Zimbali is a Mountain Paradise of fresh water springs, rivers and food falling from the trees. Zimbali is 5* Retreat and 7-acre organic farm and is also the #1 restaurant in Jamaica on Tripadvisor for over 5 years. Winner of the 2015 Observer Food Awards for ‘Gem of Westmoreland’, Zimbali’s freshness truly can’t be beat. Full Breakfast & Dinner are included in your package and lunch is available as well. One day you can hike into the hills and learn wood fire "Ital" Cooking from Rasta Fiyah, the next you can be front row for our 5 Course ‘Farm to Table Cooking Show’. African drumming, river swimming, hiking, a tour of our Farm and of course a cold Red Stripe at the Reggae Bar await you. Why not make this year’s vacation the Best Ever!
