As WS has become a regular stop for me now, I back up everything JoJo says! And I've met other single female travelers at WS, so she's not alone in her travels there. One thing I might mention about the garden side is that the rooms are larger, a lil nicer than the beach side (with larger balconies as well). Also, WS just did a fantastic job renovating their pool on the garden side last year and it's a nice place for a few days of peace and quiet (no local vendors or tourists to bother) during a week long stay. So if you don't mind the walk across the daily walk across the street, the garden side also has it's advantages.

As I was saying to Irine, if you want people to hangout with, April will definitely be a better option. I was there in May last year and the resort was maybe 1/3rd capacity and the beach was quiet (the bars were closing early and not too many live bands to be found). So it all depends on what kind of experience you're looking for.

Yeah, with WS, the peak vs offpeak prices only differ by $20/day for their standard rooms. So that never really comes into play for me :)

Owner of WS just got back to me since I had a question about smoking cigs on the balcony LOL and suggested a room with a kitchenette... Thoughts?
Re: HELP this newly divorced Couples Resorts only staying Jamaica loving female :)
Jennifer, rooms with a kitchenette are larger, and nice..... is you don't mind paying the extra price.......and yes, if you have the option, late April is awesome ! :)
Re: HELP this newly divorced Couples Resorts only staying Jamaica loving female :)
ukran1ans.......Yes, you are correct, the garden side has it's advantages as well, looking forward to seeing the newly remodeled pool, all though I think a lot of us will be spending a lot of time in the ''VILLA POOL''....:)

Well, they smoke anything on the balconies... lol (there's always an astray on the balconies). I've never had a room with a kitchenette since I go to the beach restaurant daily for lunch or breakfast (they have a pretty decent menu and a great view of the beach but are only open til 3pm). When I was there in Feb, I've met some guys that 'snowbird' there in the kitchenette for a few months and really like it. I, myself, don't feel like cooking for a week's stay but if I ever stay a much longer stretch, I'd get the kitchenette room. Also, both the bar and the restaurant allow you to just sign your room number to the bill and you can pay at the office at the end of the week (which I prefer to do for just the restaurant). I just make sure I have a few singles to tip the waitresses for each meal, since the office doesn't distribute them tips at the end of the week.
