The beautifully landscaped and expansive grounds are also a major event venue -- home to many fairs, festivals, exhibitions as well as corporate and private events. 

Devon House has been recipient of Trip Advisor’s Certificate for Excellence over the past three years and due to the famous Devon House I-Scream, its proprietary brand of ice-cream was notably named as the 4th best place to enjoy ice-cream in the world by National Geographic in their 2011 Food Journeys of a Lifetime publication.

The Devon House Mansion is the architectural dream of Jamaica’s first black millionaire George Stiebel. Stiebel was among three wealthy Jamaicans who constructed elaborate homes during the late 19th century at the corner of Trafalgar Road and Hope Road, which fittingly became known as the Millionaire’s Corner. Daniel Finzi and the Verleys were the other families that resided in the area, however, both homes were eventually demolished to make way for development ventures including the construction of Abbey Court Apartments. Stiebel’s legacy lives on with the beautifully maintained Devon House, which was declared a national monument in 1990 by the Jamaica National Heritage Trust.
