Shades Cottages

A ganja lover’s paradise

Surrounded by lush greenery and abundant tropical fruit trees, Shades Cottages are a ganja lover’s paradise in the small seaside village of Belmont on Jamaica’s southwest coast about 90 minutes from the Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay. It is only about 60 yards to the beach and for reggae enthusiasts, it’s also just a stone’s throw to the Peter Tosh Mausoleum. Shades Cottages are a great option for budget-minded vacationers looking for a comfortable, restful Jamaica holiday experience at a place where they can meet and interact with local people and participate in the ganja culture.
