My husband, Bob, is an Ian Fleming/James Bond 007 mega fan. For many years, I carried around an article that I found in Star Magazine, in which it stated that you could rent out Ian Fleming’s home on the Island of Jamaica.

I wanted to surprise him and, with the help of both Gary and Bryan of Ambassador Tours, I was able to make a dream come true. They made sure everything worked perfectly, right down to keeping this secret very hush, hush, so that I could surprise my husband.

We had a 10-room mini Villa with a chef, butler and staff. They treated us as if we were celebrities. It was a world that you could not even imagine. The home was decorated with Ian Fleming’s original desk, on which he wrote his 13 James Bond novels. The private beach was secluded and breathtaking. We were also lucky enough to meet the owner, Chris Blackwell, who made it possible for people to stay at the GOLDENEYE RESORT and more accurately the FLEMING VILLA. The sunken garden in which we had breakfast, lunch and dinner to our desired menu, was just beautiful. Fresh fruit and fresh fish were always at our finger tips, and the Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee was brewed fresh everyday and served with banana coconut pancakes, pineapples and mangoes. We could have lobsters anytime we wanted them - fresh caught by the Goldeneye staff. Yum!

One of our favorite things to do was watching the baby turtles rush to the sea. The beautiful glass bottom boat and snorkeling were also magnificent.

Thanks to Ambassador Tours, I was able to get to and from the resort with ease. They assisted with setting up golf dates for my husband, as well as with visiting the Jamaica Bobsled Venue - all under his radar! Thank you, Gary and Bryan, for the special care and attention to detail - it was greatly appreciated.
