Description of Tensing Pen Resort:
Located on the Western tip of Jamaica in Negril,Tensing Penn has evolved since the early seventies into a unique collection of Wood,Thatch and Cut Stone Cottages. Set in a cultivated jungle of Tropical vegitation,each cottage features simple but Elegant Interiors
crafted by local artisans from Bamboo,mahogany,cedar, and other indigenous materials...
As your driver pulls into the drive you know you have arrived somewhere special. Trellises of bougainvillea arch overhead offering shade from the tropical sun and one of the friendly staff comes out to greet you. It is not surprising Tensing Pen Village has been highlighted in publications world wide.
This property offers a variety of rooms from simple bungalows to patio and garden studio rooms to the spacious and very private great house. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. Paths lead all around the numerous buildings that comprise the guest quarters, with quiet and shady nooks to enjoy the wonderful views. This area of Negril is known as the cliffs, here the sheer rock wall rises only about 20-25 feet from the sea. Although there is no beach or pool here, there are accesses to the water, cliffs for diving and ladders to return, and places suitable for diving. You'll find snorkeling is wonderful here. There are patio tables, lounge chairs and hammocks scattered along the cliffs and sunning patios carved out of the rocks with lounges.
Sitting on a rocky bluff, the unique thatched hut accommodations are actually quite elegant, spacious and comfortable. There are French doors that open onto private patios or balconies. Inside the rooms you'll find classic Caribbean style tile floors, stained wooden louvered windows, cool white plaster walls, accented by tasteful furnishings. The furniture is crafted from tropical wood and the mattresses are firm and comfortable. The bathroom is clean and spacious, with plenty of room. The only flaw might be that the bath/shower combination is small by US standards. The larger quarters are very roomy and have walk-in closets.
One of the really nice features of Tensing Pen is the kitchen arrangement. There is a large kitchen facility central to the property and dining tables inside and out. Guests do their own shopping for groceries. The staff is available for meal preparation, but it is more usual that guests join together and prepare their own meals, community style. What better way to make new friends and bring out those creative talents in a comfortable, laid back setting!
Tensing Pen is far out along the West End road of Negril, peacefully secluded. There are local restaurants and craft shops within walking distance and the beach is about a ten minute ride. If you require peaceful, lazy days in the tropics with few disturbances you will be quite happy with this hotel. The staff is friendly and accommodating and the managers, Dave and Bernice will see that your stay is comfortable. Not recommended for children under eight years of age and even then it might be a bit more difficult to enjoy a relaxing vacation. Wait until they're a little older so you can all enjoy!
