Rhodes Hall Plantation is a magnificent property covering over 550 lush acres located just 5 miles before Negril. There is one mile of private beach and coral coastline gently curling around lovely, reef shielded, Rhodes Hall Bay. Colorful tropical fish develop in our government-protected hatchery and coral formations can be viewed in shallow waters adjacent to our beaches. Natural fresh water mineral springs rise up from the seafloor along our coastline soothing tired muscles. Driving through this vast property is a one-mile journey, so vast that we enjoy our status as a separate district. This private working plantation has fruits and vegetables in continuous cultivation including coconuts, bananas, papaya, mangoes, pineapples, oranges, lime, cocoa, plantain, plums, avocado, tamarind, breadfruit, okra, tomato, cucumber, yams, ackee, carrots, calaloo, and allspice. Fish are raised in ponds fed by our natural mineral spring which also provides our freshwater requirements for the entire property.

 
Over 70 Horses graze freely in the hills when not in use for horseback riding and our morass (Jamaican swamp) is one of the largest crocodile reserves in Western Jamaica with over 70 residents and an adjoining lake simply named "Crocodile Lake". Other animals living on the property include geese, guinea hens, chickens, roosters, ducks, goats, mongoose, crabs, cats, dogs, doves, parrots, humming birds, doctors birds, myna birds, seagulls, pelicans, sandpipers, herron, vultures, and even peacocks.
  
The terrain covers all that Jamaica has to offer; from beaches to coral coastline, to mountaintops as high a 550 feet affording excellent views all the way to negril. The lush tropical jungles feature impressive stands of ancient bamboo and numerous types of trees and other rainforest vegetation creating a bird watchers paradise
