“Loved It!!! A Lil Piece of Paradise”
We stayed & Sandals Negril from 9/5/08 - 9/12/08.....it was just awesome! We went during Hurricane season & yes, Hurricane Ike was ever present! But we still had a wonderful time! We stayed in the Romeo & Juliet Suite. The room was beautiful, the bathroom was huge with his & her glass bowl sinks, whirlpool tub & large standup shower.
“LOVED SANDALS NEGRIL!!!”
We loved Sandals Negril. This was our 4th stay at a Sandals resort, and so far this is our favorite one. The beach and sunsets were beautiful. The view from our room was breathtaking. We overlooked the pool/beach area facing west for beautiful sunsets.We stayed in the Penthouse Beachfront Bedroom river suite on the second floor.
“more to say, the best place...”
When we left for Jamaica on July 28th, it was a long flight - over 20 plus hours of travel but we were greeted in Sandals negril with ice cold towels and a drink.. Already you had me , hook line an sinker.
We were taken to the Conceirge area, and then guided to have something to eat in the Bayside restaurant. Scott was already in heaven.... We were then taken on a tour and then to our room. I loved it. No it wasn't like the website, but hey that's what you expect. We walked out of our doors, and there was the beach, the ocean. WOW....
From that moment on, we relaxed, relaxed and relaxed... We made great friends Dana and Randy and we Mike and Berkley, we had a lot of fun. We didn't go in the pool very much, because honestly we were there for the beach. The staff was so amazing. The bar guys Jason and Leroy, the Photographer's O'neal andDayna and many others, all the restaurant staff was so good. The Food.. Scott was in his heaven, food, food, more food. And Jerk Chicken and Jerk Beef...
The entertainment. I don't think I met one Jamaican that wasn't talented. The steel drum band, holy!!! talented.!!
Even the security guys Chris and gang, they are all so nice.
If you take the time to talk to them, they talk to you.
Yes there are sellers on the beach, from clothing to ANYTHING you want, but what do you expect, your in Jamaica..
just overcome everything you heard, and don't forget, the job of any resort or any hotel is to UPSELL. so if you think your room or the whole resort will be like it is in pictures, you are in a dream! nothing is like that. Your vacation and your experience is what you make it, not what the resort presents to you. And for everyone complaining about their rooms. Besides the obvious what the heck are you doing in your room all the time while your in Jamaica.
We loved it, we were sad to come home, and can't wait to go back, maybe in 09. Jamaican people are so friendly, so hospitaple. Just get used to saying "YA MON, and NO MON".
Also get used to their motto is "Slow, Slower, and even more slow". But hey you are on vacation.
Just sit back, enjoy the sunset, enjoy the pampering. and don't forget this is a third world country. they make $50.00/wk US and work 12 hours per day 6-7 days per week. and they served the heck of you. Also remember you will get sold stuff, from the pictures, which Are worth it. $16.95 for one photo. to the spa, which we also did and was so good!!!!
just enjoy your holiday. It's the best place on earth.
