Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
I just heard on FB that the owner at BCC let Petrona go. She was one of the main reasons I chose to stay there, all the wonderful things people had said about her on TripAdvisor.
IDK, limiting the clientele to the restaurant and forcing Teddy to leave and now letting Petrona go; bad business.
I really liked the location and coolness of the castle, but I'll probably not go back. Too many other cool places to see and visit.
I did hear that Teddy is now at Treehouse; hopefully Petrona ends up somewhere equally as good.

True Dat.
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
Please stop with rumors.
Rumor and speculation serves no useful purpose and can harm the reputation of people and businesses
Thanks!
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
Yeah, no offense but you have been there one time. I like Petrona very much, and it's a major bummer she's gone. Unfortunately this has been brewing...
I'll be back.
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
We are staying there in a few weeks, been following the drama on facebook :) but I realize it's just drama. Looking forward to our stay there and I will report back on our stay! Just based on the fact that we will be looking out over the sea and sunsets and all the awesome bars/restaurants, I think it will be pretty awesome.
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
Sad to hear that. Fantastic lady and always a great help to me.
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle

Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
Oh dear. Does anyone know if there will be another restaurant at BCC?
If not, can one walk to any easily?

Depends on what you mean by easily?
I walked from BCC up to Canoe and down to Pushcart (with blisters on my feet), plenty of good places to eat in the cliffs.
And Peewee's two doors down has a very inexpensive breakfast.
This is just personal experience... Other places are nearby but I'll refrain from commenting due to not having eaten there.

Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
There are lots of food options close by. Pablo's up across from Samsara, Pressa's just up from Pablo's, Errol's (between the two), Jenny's (up across from Home Sweet Home), Ciao Jamaica, Pee Wee's, No Limit Bar, and not sure if Sypda's is doing jerk right now (across from BCC). There are also some little cookshops around, and some others I'm sure I'm forgetting. That's just in the immediate vicinity (300 yards either way).
Edit: Home Sweet Home has a good restaurant, and if you go a little further up toward Canoe there are several decent bars on the seaside before you get near Canoe...
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
TAH - I can't picture Pablo's. Where is it in relation to, say, Ras Rody's? Thanks.
Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
It's probably a twenty minute walk from there going toward town, on the same side. If you're leaving BCC, go out the gate to your right, and it's maybe 250 yards up on the left. A little past L&M.

Re: Sad news at Blue Cave Castle
