The Geejam Collection owned by music industry veterans Jon Baker and Steve Beaver, announces the completion of Cocosan, the newest addition to its private villa development.
Taking advantage of the impressive landscape in the historic San San Estate, Cocosan sits in a dramatic hilltop location and offers sweeping views across lush tropical jungle, the John Crow and Blue Mountain chains and Portland’s stunning coastline, located on the Northeast coast of Jamaica.
Cocosan is a partially renovated and newly built property located in the San San Estate, an area originally developed during the 1960s heyday of Port Antonio when the jet-setting elite including Errol Flynn, Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan, Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza, Garfield Weston and Lady Price, fell in love with the region.
They recognized that the 1000-acre San San Estate was, as famous resident Errol Flynn put it, “more beautiful than any woman [he’d] ever seen.”
The impressive three-level, six en-suite bedroom villa can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests. Large high ceiling rooms, some with balconies, display contemporary, collectable artwork and photography that is curated according to each incoming guest’s taste from Baker’s personal collection. Custom vinyl turntables and mixing consoles add to the character of the villa in keeping with Geejam’s musical roots and returning guests.
A spacious outdoor terrace, heated lap pool, Jacuzzi, steam room, gym and children’s play area boast panoramic vistas of the coast, ideal for luxury living and entertaining. Ensuring an effortless stay, Cocosan is booked with full wait staff, housekeeping and in-house chefs who prepare meals in one of the two state-of-the-art kitchens using produce from the on-property organic herb and vegetable garden.
The distinctive villa, created exclusively for The Geejam Collection by Atelier Vidal Architects, continues the group’s longstanding relationship with the Kingston based firm. Reinterpreting the existing structure using local materials, this hilltop oasis seamlessly integrates striking design and contemporary living within a stunning natural setting. Guests will also be able to enjoy the full services and amenities of the Geejam Collection properties, Geejam Hotel & Recording Studio, the 13-villa Trident Hotel and the 8-room Trident Castle.
The Geejam Collection’s mission is to bring the San San Estate and the nearby town of Port Antonio back to its original glory by introducing the new Villa Collection and re-launching the Blue Lagoon Restaurant in Spring 2016, encouraging travel and investment to the region.
Cocosan rates start at $2,750 per night in low season. For more information visit www.geejamcollection.com and for reservations please call toll-free in the US, 1-888-443-3526, +1-876-993-7000 or email, reservations@geejam.com.
