The property was nothing like the pictures.  The receptionist was very friendly.  The property itself was not very good.  The sliding door to the balcony was broken, the tub didn’t drain and overall it just wasn’t as wxpected.

This property is well located on the hip strip. It is a property in transition. The restaurant and pool are closed; not sure if they are going to open. Security is good. Lots of stuff to see and do nearby. The Doctor’s Cave beach and a Starbucks are across the street but the beach requires a fee for admission and an extra fee if you want a beach chair and umbrella.

Went to Montego Bay for a short vacation. Rented via Airbnb through Karl Lawrence. I have to echo some of the thoughts posted by other users.  Unfortunately he is what gives Airbnb a bad reputation and should be removed from their platform.  His place is quite run down, pictures although capture the space unfortunately do not give a clear indication of the state it’s in. Could use a good clean, new coat of paint (at the least) and perhaps an update of some of the amenities. As they say: you got to spend money to make money. These rental units require some modicum of capital and maintenance expenditures. Thats business. I don’t think he understands that though. 

 It was suitable for a week but what was most problematic was the end. Left him a reasonable review as the placed served its purpose. Close to the  beach, close to restaurants as well as lounges and provided us with a descent vacation.  

Karl Lawrence had audacity though to not only post misinformation about my stay but ask for an additional hundred dollars from me. He claims I took one of his mediocre used towels and he submitted the claim to Airbnb asking me to pay for not one but 6 towels. He then goes on to ask for 40 dollars due to a plumbing issue.  Thankfully Airbnb resolved each and denied his claims. 

I get the sense this is a regular occurrence for him. Following this interaction I searched his name-seems like I am not the only one to experience this. 

Be careful with him: the pictures may tempt you but the experience post rental may leave you questioning why you chose his property.

Karl Lawrence: avoid his properties

My experience with Karl Lawrence was beyond disappointing, and I feel compelled to share my frustration. Karl not only insists on bullying guests into leaving 5-star reviews but also manipulates the review system to his advantage.

After our stay, we left a straightforward 4-star review, failing to provide honest feedback. In our review, we refrained from mentioning certain aspects that could have affected our rating, such as the run down building, presence of mold on the shower ceiling and spider webs near the AC unit. 

Despite these observations, we chose not to use the accompanying footage on our social media platforms out of consideration for the challenges faced by small businesses. 

However, Karl's reaction was outrageous. He promptly saw our review, contacted Airbnb, and had the audacity to remove his 5-star review of us. Conveniently, he decided we owed him additional money for a so-called early check-in fee, an amount that was never mentioned before or during our stay.

This manipulation of the review system and attempts to coerce guests into false ratings are unacceptable. It's disheartening to see a host resort to such tactics.  My advice to potential guests: beware of Karl Lawrence and think twice before falling victim to his tactics.

BEWARE (Scam)

Priceless Seaview.  My Airbnb host was Elizabeth, my condo was on the 9th floor.  It was an incredible experience.  Right on the "hipstrip"  within walking distance to everything- Casino, Margaritaville, the beach, supermarkets.  Downtown taxi is only a 1.00 US or a nice walk.  My unit was recently renovated, it was like home away from home.  All new appliances, I was impressed and highly recommend this host.

PRICELESS SEAVIEW - amazing experience 

It was a one of a kind experience. All the staff was very pleasant and welcoming through our stay, the only thing I can complain about is the 1500 coupon book that can't be used for anything or very little. Need less to say we left it there as our gift to you from us, it did us no good. Wasted paper.

Girls trip 

Great location especially to Doctor's Cave Beach-right across the street.
The apartments are individually owned and maintained and it appears that their condition spreads from one end of the spectrum to the next. The apartment I got was in great condition and had great views.
Overall the building needs some updating including the elevators. The outer walls need to be painted and power washed. The hallways and shared spaces need to be more welcoming.
Security guards are always at both entrances, however it appears that at the back entrance there is always a congregation of street people and drug dealers. I felt somewhat insecure both during the day and more so at nights. Something should be done about this.
Conclusion: It is a GEM but Trip Advisor should encourage the management to improve the appearance and security of the building. Failure to get changes, Trip Advisor should definately take this property off their listing.

Great location to the airport and all attractions for the urban visitor.

Need some renovation, not a friendly receptionist, for 1 night ok...

They did not have my reservations , I need my money back, I had to pay twice

Filthy dirty never cleaned  Nothing worked,. No locks on door. Not a RESORT  . No facilities to use.
