We went to Coyaba in March 2008 and it was so very pretty. The guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information about the plants. And he made sure we got lots of pictures of us with the plants. It was very peaceful because there wasn't hardly anyone else there. The tour took about a half hour and then we spent a little time in the museum before going to the waterfall. We were the only ones climbing the falls. It was like a mini-Dunn's River Falls but much more fun because we were the only ones there so we had more time to play around. I would definately come here again on another trip.

My husband and I just visited Coyaba River Gardens and we highly recommend the trip. We went on an informative guided tour of the gardens which took about one hour to complete. The gardens consist of many local and imported plants, a small museum and gift shop. This is a must see - simply Heavenly!

I have visited Dunn's River and YS Falls while in Jamaica and they were wondeful experiences. Yet none compares to the family outing I had with my family at Coyaba Garden and climbing the Mahoe Falls. We had a personal tour guide through a lush, beautiful botanical garden then up a stunning and fun to climb water fall. No human chain or slippery rocks. It was the most memorable experience for me while visiting Jamaica. Remember to take your swim wear.

When asked recently where I thought the prettiest place I had ever been was located...I had to say it was Coyaba River Garden in Ocho Rios, JA.
I remember the wonderful sound of running water from the river throughout and the great variety of beautiful tropical flowers growing abundantly. A place of great peace and beauty that one wished you never had to leave.
The owner, Simon, had great vision when he created this garden.
I plan on visiting there again next trip to Jamaica.
