Anyone know how things are going at Seasplash? It's time to book something for February, and again this year I'm left wondering about conditions and management. Last year's new manager, who I thought was excellent, is gone. I've written to owner, but wanted to boardie feedback. Thanks!
We were in Negril last week and it looks pretty sad. Pretty run down and the roof of the resturant has blue tarps covering the holes and no one seems to be staying there.
We stayed at Treehouse and were very glad we chose it this year after the Fiasco we had at Seaspash last year.
If you are looking I would consider Treehouse, great rooms and wonderful people. We had a small kitchenette room and I know they also have bigger ones that are more like apartments.
There is a Living Social deal going on right now too

We spent 5 days there on a Groupon, Nov 27th through Dec 1st. The staff were wonderful, the rooms were nice, but the power went out every day for about 4 hrs--for some reason they were running off a generator and it kept breaking down.
Thangsgiving Day they had a buffet for $25. The manager(owner) served the food(tons of rice and peas, very little meat) and when we tried to go back to get more of what we liked, we were told one plate only....
On Saturday, the power was out for 8 hrs--well into the evening. The place was dark and they brought out candles. We spent the evening at Treehouse. On Sunday we had a letter under the door offering free breakfast or lunch for our trouble. They limited the menu to 3 lunch items.
I was not impressed with the management. They didn't tell us what was going on with the power situation and I don't feel they compensated us appropriately. It's too bad because the rooms and grounds are really nice as is the staff.
that is so sad. it is a very nice place, but with much upkeep. but thats part of it. when jim was running it at least he had a very big interest in it. it seemed as though there were many improvement going on and much for the clientel. music, webcasts, hosting events. now who knows what happens to this place. these places in the carribean need lots of upkeep becasue of the weather and the sea salt air. i hope this place makes it as it is a very nice property. i think it might just need an owner that cares, maybe more TLC.. jus sayin
Rice and peas and "a little meat" $25.00,one plate.....buffet? Hmmmm
Mrs Wilson, I will be in Negril this coming week. I will go and take pics so you can see what's up. Hi to your son.
I think that Jim the "owner" took more out of that place than he put in!! :(Quote:
