Meet Shakes

Every hidden gem needs a guardian, and ours is Shakes — our on-site caretaker and the heart of Hidden Gem Cottages.

Shakes is a great storyteller, with deep knowledge of Jamaica’s history, culture, and everyday life. He’s well known, loved, and respected in the local community — not just for his wisdom, but for his kindness.

A lifelong student of Jamaica’s natural treasures, Shakes knows the holistic uses of the herbs and plants that grow right here in Negril. Guests love sitting with him by the fire pit or under the stars, hearing his stories and feeling the calm of his gentle spirit.

“Such a fun time with Patty and Tammy, the hosts... and friends. A beautiful place and great food! Chicken foot soup was amazing! Thanks ladies!”

— Debra Pereversoff

“I’ve been to Jamaica many times but never have I had such an authentic experience! Tammy has such a vast knowledge of the area — navigating is a breeze. The cottages and surrounding area are beautiful and I will ABSOLUTELY be coming back.”

— Michael Morgan

“My friends and I spent two weeks at the cottages and couldn’t have had a more amazing experience. Tammy’s recommendations for restaurants and adventures were incredible. Heaven on earth — you won’t experience anything like it elsewhere!”

— Jester

“We spent 8 days in Negril — hospitality from Tammy and grounds manager Shakes made the stay that much more enjoyable. The community kitchen is fantastic and a great place to hold a party. We’re already reserved for next winter.”
