Dr. Paul founded Great Huts with a rare intention: to create a place where people could genuinely heal and where Jamaica’s story, especially its African roots, could be seen and felt. He wanted to highlight the African heritage of Jamaicans and honor their ancestry, shaping a retreat that respects both the land and the people who came before. In a true Rastafari manner, he chose to build gently, disturbing the earth as little as possible so that cliffs, trees and shoreline remained part of the experience, not something to be cleared away.

 

Across the site you will find a curated collection of art that reflects this vision, from pieces by local Jamaican artists to carefully sourced African works, woven into huts, villas and shared spaces. The result is a soulful, eco minded wellness retreat where the environment, the culture and the guest all share the same quiet respect.
