He does great work and we will often give him a project idea when we first arrive, and it is completed before we are ready to return. Never been disappointed.

Hi, would this be walkable from the beach at the Negril Treehouse to the craft market?

Actually just spoke to Octavius...his shop is at the beach location :)

Yes it is walkable. probably about 45 min it depends on how many rum punches you stop for. step out to the treehouse hotel turn to your left on the beach and start walking.

Those people are still working and earning a paycheck in there so you are helping out. Thats how I feel about Club MoBay. Nice people working to welcome you to Jamaica not trying to swindle you.

FYI, the spice shop is not duty free. I questioned why their prices were sometimes double or more of what I pay in the US and they told me they were not duty free. Guess it's best not assume that all the stores are.
