What a wonderful night I spendt at Zimbali retreat. Being a foodie and former personal chef I've always wanted to check this place out. The setting is ideal! Very serene and peaceful! Kind of like at one with nature. The culinary cooking show was incredible! So fresh, healthy and delicious. Wish I could get there recipe for the salad we were served, too many ingredients to remember. I always stay on the beach when in Jamaica but next trip I will be booking several nights there!

What an amazing experience, we did the rasta tour with Fiya & Sata, these men are special people and we also the cooking show and absolutely loved every minute of it all. Alicia & Mark are wonderful hosts. We are coming back with our family of 8! Thank you Zimbali, Jeff & Laurie

Wow! Another great experience at Zimbali! My family has been coming here since 2015 and every time our expectations are exceeded. If you’re staying in Negril and want a fresh farm to table experience, Zimbali is a must! The food is always amazing.

Have been to zimbalis on every trip I take to Negril without fail. Mark and Alicia are amazing hosts who greet you at the door and will remember you next time. The property, ambiance and of course the food are something to experience. Food us delicious, nutritious and , for me, educational as I learned how to eat better. Highly recommend as a must do in West Jamaica

Always a pleasure. I'm not sure how many times I've visited Zimbali, but there's a good reason I always go back. Well, many reasons: it's authentic. There's an on-site chef serving up organic, real deal Jamaican, farm to table goodness. It's quiet, and has an intimate "you're home" vibe... and my absolute favorite pool anywhere. This is THE place you always wanted to build and run away to. You should- and you can. :-)

Zimbali is a hidden gem that everyone should experience in Jamaica. The location is a zen place with a feeling of community and family. Chef Alicia and her team prepare delicious farm to plate 5 star dining. Can’t wait to go back and stay at Zimbali again. Best sleep ever.

We arrived about 20 min early and were greeted right away. Everyone was friendly and the place is beautiful. We chose our main course and waited for the others to arrive. I ordered a beer from the bar while waiting. The red stripe was piss warm. We proceeded to take the farm tour which was just okay. At the end of the farm tour the head farmer tried to sell us some ****. I ordered another beer at this point and another guest in our party ordered a champagne both of which were warm. Now we waited to be seated which took quite a while. The salad and apps were served and some of the courses took 20-30 minutes in between. Too long of a wait between the courses caused exactly what you would expect, cold food. My fish sat for 20 min before it was plated. The sauces and taste of the food were good but the temperature was unacceptable. Dessert presentation was nice but tasted like straight alcohol. At this point 9pm my driver had been waiting for us as the meal was supposed to finish at 8. If this is the norm here I don’t understand the great reviews. Our tour driver already said they would never recommend this place again.

We stayed for a week and couldn’t have had a better time. Mark and Alecia and staff made this the most memorable vacation we’ve ever had. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The food was delicious and plentiful. If you have a chance this is an escape that will rejuvenate you .
