I would definitely stay at the White Sands, ( if you can get in) ...New Years is fun on the beach.... you could go have a nice dinner at Catcha....
How bad is the road noise Bobby? Can you still hear the tree frogs? I love falling asleep to the sound of the tree frogs.
And jojo p now I'm getting confused again because New Years on the beach does sound fun! Never been over New Years before.
I was there on New Years 4 years ago. It was so fun ...stayed at White Sands, took the one love bus......then went to Alfred's for fireworks........so spent some time on the cliffs, then the rest of the evening on the beach...lots of music !!
Hmmm, beach or cliffs - seems like most people on this forum stay on the beach - or maybe its just that there are more rooms on the beach so more people stay there. It would be fun to take a poll sometime - was your last stay only beach, only cliffs, or a mixture of both?
Westender is far but that makes sense with the old Boss Hogg stories. We stayed there around 6 years ago and it was nice. Breakfasts were OK, dinners we mostly went out, rroms were pretty big and nicely appointed. Pool is across the street - but you can swim around the entire island of Jamaica!
We always stay on the beach except for 1 trip several years ago that we split between White Sands & Seastar Inn. We loved Seastar but it's so far from the water so that's why we haven't done it again. I don't want to take a long walk home after watching the sunset. We do love the beach but was always interested in having a cliff experience that was on the water.
As for the noise SVW...kind of hard to describe(been a while as well) The one I can compare to better was banana shoot....we stayed near the water for 10 days and then had to move up to the cottage near the road..I have to say it was far less peaceful
We stay at Catcha every yr for at least part of our trip. We normally move at least once from one room to another. This is common practice staying there. I have seen people move 3 times in one week. You pack your stuff and they move you. Last yr we stayed in the Pisces for 2 nights before moving to the Saggi. If you take the Pisces don't take to much luggage not much space. The bathroom is a step-down so be careful if you are drunk. Nice small outdoor shower. The back deck is really nice. The view is nice also. A hammock and a big tree in the deck. My only complaint was road noise at night and of course the cliffs barking dogs. I would take ear plugs next time. For the price , especially for that time of yr. you can't beat it. We are never in our room during the day. I will see if I can find some pics. I find with Catcha if you can book and get in check their website daily because its common to find cancellations.

L last yr we stayed in the Pisces for 2 nights before moving to the Saggi. The Pisces is small don't take to much luggage. the bathroom has a step-down so be careful if you are drunk. it has a nice outside shower. The deck is great, nice and shady, a good view also. The only complaint I would have is road noise and the normal cliffs barking dogs. I could stay here again I would take ear plugs at night. The price can't be beat. I find if you book at Catcha then check the website you will find that people cancel. that is why people normally change rooms during their stay.
