Recommendation for portable door lock/alarm
I'm not going to be scared off going to Negril but do agree the doors at some of the places we've stayed may not be the most secure. Won't mind investing in something that will offer some protection will in our room. Have you tried a device you'd like to recommend? Looked online and most have mixed reviews.

Saw that one and it looks great. Was hoping for something a little more portable as sometimes we travel only with carry-ons. This board really got me thinking. We do a bit of traveling both inside and out of the US. A little extra security is a great idea. Have NEVER had a problem in Negril which we visit twice a year.

We have used something similar to this...It is inexpensive, and VERY loud.

i would rather have a device in which you can't open the door, period, versus a device that makes a noise.

Like Yvonne mentioned, a simple rubber door stop would help, as the more you push on the door, the more secure it becomes.

A couple of well placed beer bottle against the doors would work well as an alarm.

I always barricade myself in with furniture against the door, but I'm going to try that too.
