Montego Bay: Attractions and more...
Famous For: Good Hope is more than just an estate home; it
is, as it probably was in the eighteenth century, a model for elegant country
living. The property is now a part of Chris Blackwell's Island Trading Group,
and has retained its colonial stature and appeal even through its transformation
into a luxurious villa complex with all the modern conveniences.
Must See: Few words actually manage to describe a sunrise at Good Hope with
any accuracy. Breathtaking, spectacular and awe-inspiring come to mind, but
even those cannot truly express the wonder evoked from the experience. The sunrise
is certainly a must-see…
Say Hello To: Many regard David Pinto, master potter, as one
of Jamaica's most promising young artists. His work, which has been displayed
in the exhibitions of some of the most prestigious galleries around the world,
is dynamic and refreshingly inventive. It is reflective of his warm and affable
personality. Back in Jamaica after living and working abroad for a number of
years, Pinto has established his studio inside one of the former plantation
buildings on the Good Hope Estate, where he creates his pieces and occasionally
hosts international workshops.
