Set within the gated estate of Silver Sands, Butterfly Villa is your home from home. There are staff on hand to take care of all your needs and to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The cook is happy to do your shopping and to prepare meals, the housekeeper and gardener are also on hand.
There are two extensive living areas, the downstairs living area opens up onto the large inviting terracotta pool deck. You may choose to have your breakfast on the large veranda overlooking the beautiful pool and garden, as we do when we are at home in the villa.
Whilst strolling through the garden you may wish to admire the various fruit trees, if you wish to sample any just ask the gardener!
There are 4 bedrooms to choose from, all have en-suite bathrooms plus a house bathroom. The master suite has a Queen size bed plus bath and shower. The next bedroom has a King, then a Double and a Twin room. All have showers with ample towels and dressing gowns. Beach towels are also available during your stay, we really want to make you as comfortable as possible.
Feel like eating outside? Ask the cook and they will set up the barbeque, maybe to taste the famous Jamaican 'jerk chicken'.
If you feel like relaxing indoors there is cable TV, board games and internet access.

Guest Access

You will have access to a private beach shared by the gated Silver Sands community. There is also a private pool at the villa, a front and back patio, and a garden area. You have full use of the main house.

Interaction with Guests

Your point of contact during your stay will be the house staff but we are only a call away. At no extra cost, there is a housekeeper, gardener and cook at the villa on hand usually from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., but working hours can be altered to accommodate personal needs. All are more than happy to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

The Neighbourhood

Silver Sands is a very quiet gated residential estate made up of Jamaican homeowners and other international visitors. There's no traffic to worry about, the area is very green and very well maintained. The estate has strict rules regarding external works and noise.

We can arrange, for guests to be transferred to and from the airport in Montego Bay to the villa on arrival and departure.
We can arrange for transport to your chosen destination, perhaps Dunns River Falls which is a short drive away or a shopping trip into Montego Bay or Ocho Rios.

The private beach is a short 10 minute walk from the villa, where there is also a local restaurant and beach bar. Or a golf cart can be booked in advance, subject to availability.

Simply perfect

Our group of seven +50, had the pleasure of staying at Butterfly Villa for 4 nights in January 2024. The villa was spacious and clean, with a good layout. The majority of our villa time was spent on the covered veranda overlooking the pool, where we ate, lounged and played games. The pool and deck was a highlight, and the beds comfortable. The Villa lived up to its description and possibly even surpassed our expectations. Positioned within Silver Sands, the villa’s location at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. While the beach was a 10-minute walk away, we opted to rent a golf cart, but are not sure if we would on future visits. Silver Sands, with its stunning beach, left a lasting impression. The beach was very picturesque, and offered swimming, paddling, snorkeling, and long walks along the shoreline. The availability of shade from umbrellas and trees added to the charm. Franceen and Marva contributed significantly to our amazing experience. Franceen’s arranged for the purchase of our groceries, kept careful records - to sum up her approach she said “you tell us want you want, and we will make it happen”. Marva’s culinary skills left us longing for more. Her delicious cooking allowed us to fully embrace the vacation experience, sampling local dishes, and free from the concerns of meal preparation and dishwashing. A heartfelt thank you to Beverly for sharing your little piece of heaven with us. Our experience at Butterfly Villa was truly amazing and memorable. We hope to return

Never want to leave the beach!

Butterfly Villa was exactly as advertised. The staff was wonderful and Beverly the owner makes sure everything is taken care of. It is a short walk to the private beach. The sand is so soft and the water so clear - you want to skip sightseeing elsewhere. Check out Juliet’s for amazing fried chicken and atmosphere.

Silver Sands is lovely!

Let me start by saying- we had an incredible time in Jamaica! The ocean is so blue, the weather was lovely, the locals are incredible- will definitely return! The absolute best part of Butterfly Villa is Franceen and Marva! Hands down! They took such good care of us, wonderful recommendations, Marva is an EXCELLENT cook. Truly special women and they enhanced our stay immensely! As far as the house, it could certainly use a little renovation/TLC. Paint, update some furnishings, renovate the bathroom/kitchen/mattresses, etc. It seems like it's been a while since any 'upkeep' has been done. The listing photos were probably taken at the start of rentals when it was new. The bottom floor could be so lovely but seems like it's pretty much dead space as it stands now. Beverly responded quickly and that was nice. It would have been helpful to have direct correspondence with Franceen before arriving to discuss menu, groceries, what to expect, etc. Luckily, I had friends stay in Silver Springs before who shared info that prepped me. Our biggest take away is that we'd return! Franceen and Marva are exceptional and the laid back vibes of Jamaica created a vacation that will never be forgotten. Enjoy!

Natural Mystic Experience

Butterfly Vila is absolutely breathtaking! During my birthday week, I wanted an authentic experience and peaceful retreat. Everything exceeded my expectations— the beautiful home, surrounding landscape, and community of Silver Sands. The close proximity of beaches in walking distance, including the fisherman’s beach. The beautiful palm trees, cool breeze, ocean, butterflies, and sunshine is a natural mystic. However, what made the biggest impact on our stay was Franceen and Marva. They are both absolute treasures that will ensure your accommodations are stress free. The food is prepared with love and amenities served with attention to detail. They even managed to surprise me with a birthday cake—which was delicious by the way! I personally cannot wait to return and stay again! All one needs is an appreciative heart to enjoy the experience of a lifetime. Thank you Beverly, Franceen, and Marva for making my Birthday week spectacular!

Family Vacation in Jamaica

Easy booking process and Beverly was quick to respond to questions. Franceen and Marva took great care of us in regards to meals, house conditions and local attractions. Private beach is very clean and no hassles. Bar and grill onsite. Easy drives to both Ocho Rios and Montego Bay. Town just minutes away via car for groceries. All pictures were true reflections of the house condition.

Marva + Franceen 4EVER

We stayed for 4 nights and 5 days and had the most amazing time. The villa was in a great location and just a short walk from the beach. It's a super quiet area and it's pretty clutch to have a pool at the house. BUT LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT FRANCEEN & MARVA. They are the new loves of our lives and we were very sad to leave them. Everyday we had homecooked meals and they were made with LOVE and were authentic. They are both SO helpful and attentive also with the grocery list, anything that we needed for the rooms or the beach, hooking us up with a mobile COVID test (which you need 3 days prior to leaving Jamaica as of right now May 2021). We will definitely be back one day to visit.

We had a wonderful stay both Francine & Marva were very helpful & kind thanks very much!!

Our overall stay was very nice I want to thank Francine & Marva for treating us like family we will miss them. The villa was very good, the service, food & facility was good! The location was not too bad for me but for my older daughters it could have been a little better. The internet connection was poor I had to purchase a range extender! it was left onsite as a gift. Even though its a gated community the Front & Lower floor doors were not secure! improvements can be made there! Overall we had a amazing stay would definitely return ! Alton Douglas 01/08/21

A gourmet escape with a great beach

Well laid out, breezy. Spent most of our time on the upper veranda. The convenient beach club was a real gem. The staff, Franceen and Marva, are incredible, meeting our demanding menu (we ate our way through Jamaican culinary tradition) and making for a worry free visit. Would definitely return.

Nothing Short of Amazing!

My group and I stayed from May 25-30, and had the pleasure of visiting the Butterly Villa of Silver Sands Estate in Duncans where we truly enjoyed ourselves. The home met all of our needs whereas Ms. Franceen and Marva was more than accommodating throughout the duration of our stay. The beach was a short walk from the home and while we were home the Ms. Franceen and Marva attended to the home while we were away. There was an issue with the AC in one of the rooms, and the ladies made sure thatnit was dealt with promptly. We woke up to having breakfast prepared everyday by the staff who went beyond their scope to ensure that we received everything we requested upon arrival. The first night we arrived, we started off with a Jamaican staple of jerk chicken, oxtail with rice and peas and plantains, where the ladies truly outdone themselves in preparation of this meal (the lime juice was great). The home was very well kept, to include the staff giving their recommendations of things to do and see nearby. I can't thank the owner and Ms. Franceen enough for a great experience overall! Definitely recommended and will look to stay again! Thank you! Akaita "Nick"
