Let's see: T-Water, Legends, Bar-B-Barn, Rondel, Coco La Palm, Charela, Negril Cabins, Riu Negril, Riu Tropical Bay, and our favorite and now merely a memory, For Real. Been going to Negril for 21 years. Have actually stayed all over the island except for the Blue Mountains.
Since 2003, Bar B Barn, Yellow Bird (more times than I can count!), Fun Holiday about 5 times, Beach Club 3 times, White Sands, The Palms, Catcha Falling Star, Sea Star, Blue Horizon, Carribean Sunset, Negril Escape, Banana Shout, a bush bungalow, and a hammck in the hills at a Ganja Farm!
I've only stayed at three different Negril properties in 27 years. T-water the first two trips. I discovered Secret Paradise on the second and stayed there for several years until it was sold and the never ending redevelopment started. Having watched Blue Cave Castle being built over the years, we tried it several years ago and that's our home away from home now.
Oh, I forgot one, Rondel!

Thought the name of this thread was hotels in NEGRIL..........
Interesting that Seastar and Bar B Barn have come up so often by boardies .... I would describe both properties as affordable with great food, obviously a POTENT combo. Indeed, it is hard to find both of those qualities in the same hotel, agreed?
