I would not encourage you to view the park right now, it looks like a jungle. This park has the potential to be wonderful. Since COVID it hasn’t been the same per the grounds keeper. Within 2 yrs it has been unkept and everything is overgrown. We went their because we heard it was a beautiful botanical garden. I was pretty disappointed by it. They even charged a fee to give us a tour… which was not worth it at all… the view was spectacular, you could see the entire Ocho Ríos from the top. I hope they get it back to the glory days.

Its closed. The owner died, and there is no indication that it will open any time soon.

This place is closed for renovation. Do not go here unless you want to see an unkempt place. We did not know it was closed, but the security allowed us to do a brief walk through some safe spots to get a glimpse. This place must have been spectacular in its heydays. It reminded me of the Botanical Garden in Hawaii. The falls were gorgeous, and the dense vegetation was beautiful. As it is rundown now, we did not walk through all of it. What I saw was impressive, and I could see the jungle had already started to take over and overwhelm the manicured gardens. It is almost a natural ruin now and reminded me of Ross Island in Andaman & Nicobar Islands, where the man made ruins were taken over by nature.

Beautiful gardens with a lush waterfall and a swimming hole at the bottom of the stairs! We were the only ones there having a swim in our own garden of eden

Do not waste your time! This place is a joke. Overgrown mess. I think any good reviews came from their friends!

Nice easy hike to a number of small falls U can enter. Water is not deep but falls are refreshing. Wear water shows for any water related activities. Tour includes aviary with numerous birds that look forward to being fed, peacocks, parrots, doves, etc. There is a pool that a birthday party had reserved. It was pretty quiet with few visitors. Good alternative to the sometimes crowded Dunn River Falls.

Great property, Jordan was outstanding as our guide. Waterfalls, birds, botanicals was wonderful. We took hundreds of pics.

Beautiful garden , paradise place)

Beautiful lookout point. You get a great panoramic view of the town of Ocho Rios

Lovely falls, unfortunately, the drought has affected the flow of the water. It is rather low. The park could do with some more animals too.

Needs renovating and cleaning

Park is beautiful!

Good fun place to visit

From it's luscious green gardens to it's honey comb aroma in the air, Shaw Park is truly a family friendlt environment for everyone to visit.

Fun for the whole family

Very family and group oriented. A great place for a one day outing. Love the falls.

This place is a hidden gem that one should endeavor to check out. When you enter the grounds you it does not appear to be much to see but when you venture inwards you will see a beautiful falls on the property cascaded with flora and fauna that will put a smile on your face. There is also a pool and a river when you go down below. A nice retreat for nature folks.
