Great time again at CCLP ........ some random thoughts as promised -> the hotel was totally full except for one or two of the high end rooms ............. there was plenty of room on the beach and more then enough beach chairs to go around ............. clean beach towels were in short supply a few times but were restocked through out the day .............. beach was cleaned every morning ............. the included continental breakfast was great with fresh baked goods and various juices ............... if you wanted something different from the menu they would discount the price by the $5 cost of the continental breakfast ............. the Vegetarian Plate on the breakfast menu was super with fresh cooked ackee, callaloo, cabbage salad, tomatoes, etc............. beach grill food was nicely done with more then adequate jerk chicken ........... the few dinners we ate on the property were of great quality and well worth the money ........... beach party on was on Friday night and I hear the buffet was good ............. ALL the employees were super friendly, helpful, and seemed genuinely committed to doing the best job possible ................ the new rooms were spectacular with granite counter tops, mahogany woodwork, mahogany 6 panel doors, mahogany slated benches and shelves, top of the line tile floors / bathroom walls, electronic door locks, large flat screen TVs, and super quiet AC units ................ a couple power outages were handled by their backup generator keeping everything but the AC units up and running ............... new garden plantings being installed everywhere ............ ice machine seemed to handle everyone's demand for ice ............ both pools were super clean and well maintained ........... no sand flea or no-see-em bites from anywhere on the property ......... WIFI was marginal for the first three days, but then spectacular the rest of the time - equipment problems I would guess ........... two beach security guards greeted us personally each morning and kept the worst of the higglers from bothering anyone.
This trip included 3 couples who have never been to Negril before and to say the least they were impressed by CCLP. All agreed it was the best tropical vacation they have ever had, their least expensive vacation ever, and are checking the calendar for next years return to CCLP. In my humble opinion CCLP is the best over all property on the beach and the best value on the beach. FIVE STARS ! !
