  Zimbali Mountain Retreat NEGRIL

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to leave all of life behind, wander into a tropical paradise, and venture into a life completely off-grid? At Zimbali Farms we fused of modern technology with the ancient natural way of life, and made this dream reality. Come and stay in complete comfort while you reconnect with Mother Nature and yourself. The sun is your power and the rain is your water at this 100% off-grid retreat. Here at Zimbali Farms, we offer top class service and feature a gourmet ‘Ital’ vegetarian menu. Almost all of the fruit and foods you will eat are grown right here, upon the 7 ½ acre organic farm. (Other menus are available upon request). This retreats primary focus is your health, both physical and spiritual, in the ancient and natural traditions of Rastafari.
As you enter the Farms “Great House”, you must pass through the “tree of life”, a door made from the ‘Y” of a large guango tree; you are struck by the comfort of the stylish interior, a mild surprise compared with the stained glass, rustic exterior. A library of books lines the living room walls. The rear walls slide open to reveal an outdoor living room, completely open to the silence of the mountain valley. Time has no meaning here.
The gourmet kitchen with its cedar countertops and dining island are open to both the indoor and outdoor living rooms; the feeling of space and openness calms the mind. For your privacy, the 2 bedrooms and full bath are located downstairs. The master bedroom has its own back porch surrounded by the beauty of nature. Your skin has never felt as soft as when you bathe entirely from rain water, heated by the sun.
In the morning you awaken to the faint smell of smoke, as the wood fire heats the water for your coffee; almost all of the cooking takes place in the outdoor kitchen on a wood fire. The smokiness adds a special flavor to everything it cooks. Sit on the back porch and drink fresh juice as the sun breaks through the morning valley mist. By day you swim in the rivers and springs, get massaged by a waterfall, and get a real clay mud facial in the place Bob Marley used to swim. You can walk the farm and help pick dinner, drink from the coconuts and chew on the sugar cane, or hike into the hills and visit a real Rasta farm. Sit and reason with them while lunch is cooked “inna’ da bush”. The evening finds you in the outdoor dining area, the smoke gently rising through the fire torch light. As you sit and talk into the night, your mind is free of walls and new thoughts freely flow. 
The homes of Zimbali Retreats are inspired by nature on a canvas created by god. Regardless of whether you stay at our Mountain or Seaside Retreats; one can’t help but be humbled by the peace and bounty that surrounds you. This perspective brings inspiration to anyone. We welcome you back to simplicity long forgotten.
