The villa on the Swimming Beach.
Queens Cottage stands at the eastern edge of the Silver Sands Swimming Beach. Not near it. Not a stroll from it. On it — the sand starts where the cottage stops. Four bedrooms for up to eight, a private pool above the beach, fully staffed, and you can take it as two, three or four bedrooms: you only pay for the rooms you open.
Queens Cottage and the Swimming Beach. That’s the whole pitch, really.
WHY THIS BEACH MATTERS
Every house at Silver Sands is near the beach. This one is on it.
The Swimming Beach is the heart of Silver Sands — the white-sand stretch with the easy water where the whole community comes to swim. It’s inside the gates, so there’s no through-traffic, no vendors working the towels, no crowd that didn’t arrive the same way you did. Most guests walk a few minutes to reach it, and a few minutes back for every forgotten towel, snack and afternoon nap.
Queens Cottage skips all of that. The beach is below the verandah. The kids can be on the sand while breakfast is still on the table. You can swim before coffee, nap mid-afternoon, and be back on the beach for the last hour of sun without ever planning a thing. The sea is the last sound you hear at night and the first one in the morning.
Private pool and Verandah line the front of Queens Cottage.
SEA OR POOL — THE ONLY DECISION BEFORE NOON
A pool above the sand.
When the sea has had enough of you — or the smallest swimmers need shallower water — the private pool and sundeck sit right above the beach, coconut tree between you and the horizon. Outdoor shower for sandy feet. Loungers for the ones whose whole itinerary is a book.

TWO OF YOU, OR EIGHT
Take the rooms you need. Close the doors you don’t.
Rent Queens Cottage as two, three or four bedrooms — a couples’ stay on the beach or the whole house for eight.
- Four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms — two kings, two queens; the master king with a tub-and-shower ensuite.
- Air-conditioned throughout — bedrooms, living and dining rooms, with a whole-house standby generator that covers the air-conditioning too.
- Verandah and timber deck — outdoor dining with the sea in front of you; barbecue grill for the one night somebody insists.
- Paddle board, kayak and boogie boards at the house; shared tennis court in the community.
- Starlink Wi-Fi in every room — for the photos you’ll send and the work you said you wouldn’t do.
- Set up for small children — crib, high chair, baby bath; an accessible shower for guests who need one.
Minimum stay four nights. Up to eight guests.

AND YOU WON’T LIFT A FINGER
It comes with a staff of four.
Nadine Rowe manages the house, Paul Johnson cooks, Kayann Allwood keeps it, and Shawn Nelson handles everything in between. Meals made to your taste and your timetable, the laundry done, the dishes never yours. Every Silver Sands home is staffed — that’s how it works here.

WHY BOOK IT HERE
We’re not a listing site. We’re on the beach.
Here’s what booking through Mysilversands adds: a team on site at Silver Sands every day of the year, a front desk on the beach, and a 24/7 number — people who can walk to your verandah, not a call centre. Your payment isn’t handed to anyone until after your stay is complete, so if a refund is ever due, you get it. And because we look after more Silver Sands homes than any other agent, we can offer you flexibility.
One honest price
All Jamaican taxes in, no hidden charges. The cook, the housekeeper, cleaning, laundry, water and electricity are already in the rate — the things you’d pay extra for almost anywhere else.
The useful extras
Free airport pick-up and drop-off from Montego Bay when you stay seven nights or more — it’s about forty minutes each way. And you can spread the balance in instalments if you’d rather.
The Swimming Beach is right there. Come sink your toes in the sand.
Tell us your dates and how many of you. We’ll take care of the rest — that’s the job.

Why “Queens”? Queen Elizabeth II stopped at Silver Sands for lunch in November 1953, and this is the cottage made ready for her. Ask Nadine about it when you arrive.
