When the ackees are just a picking stick away from your verandah and the scotch bonnet peppers right at hand, it doesn't take much for us Jamaicans to lay out our National Dish, Ackee and Salt Fish. And so it is at home this morning, and we have invited friends, Errol, Sandra and Angela to come up for Breakfast at Neita's Nest and to just chill out in cool Stony Hill this Saturday morning. A great way for our guests to make new Jamaican friends.

Jamaica's October ritual of afternoon rains has done wonders for our new kitchen garden here at Neita's Nest Bed and Breakfast. Lemon basil, french thyme and black mint are all sprawling, while tomatoes, sweet peppers and onions are sprouting. As for the scotch bonnet peppers. Prolific!
And it's not just the herbs and vegetables. This morning, we served the sweetest, tree-ripened papayas for breakfast! There is something special about serving home grown to our guests. |

Visiting Neita's Nest was an absolute delight. The rooms were tastefully decorated and furnished. The bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the beautiful mountain scenery while eating breakfast and using authentic Jamaican products. Our host, Michelle, was amazing. She made us feel at home, and I felt sad when I had to go. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

We arrived at Neita’s Nest after cancelling our hostel accommodation. Michelle (the owner) responded to our request to stay immediately and even arranged for a taxi (with Lester - who is an excellent guide) to pick us up. Within 15 minutes we were on our way to Neita’s and it was the best decision we made! The place is absolutely beautiful, the rooms are light and airy with amazing views overlooking Kingston from the hills...Michelle provide[d] everything we could need and offered us tea before bed. Dressing gowns, towels, fresh water - it was so lovely...The breakfast was delicious - coffee, fresh juice, fresh fruit, bread and eggs… Thanks, Michelle for being an excellent host and making us feel so welcome 😊😊
