Where to Stay 2 Extra Nights?

Hi;

I am looking for some advice.

My wife and I are spending 2 extra days in Jamaica after our friends leave. We are all at Treehouse for the time they are with us. We initially were just going to extend at Treehouse but have been considering other options. My original thought was CSA of Idle Awhile as I have always liked the look and feel of both resorts but both are booked. We have never stayed in the same hotel in Jamaica twice and like to try out new hotels.

We are now considering going back to Montego Bay with our friends when they fly out (transportation is part of the Treehouse package) and spending the last two nights on the hip strip. I know nothing about Montego Bay or the hip strip area but it sounds like it might be fun for a night or two.

Has anybody done this and can you recommend a decent hotel (close or on) that you can easily and safely walk to and from the hip strip? (I know it is the Negril forum but thought the multiple repeaters might have some suggestions)

If you were to stay in Negril at a hotel you never tried before, what would that hotel be? For reference we have stayed as economically as White Sands and as expensive as Beaches and Rockhouse. We mainly explore on foot when in Negril using thirst and hunger as reasons to stop, so location is not and issue.


Thanks

Catcha is an awesome place to spend the last couple of days of your vacation. But be careful, once that green gate closes behind you, you may never want to leave!

my opinion would not stay in mo bay. i have never enjoyed thought been many years.
other than those uu mentioned
beach wild parrot, nirvana or rooms
cliff blue cave or catcha

Don't know when you are going, but negrilonestop.com has a lot of pictures and information. They also have properties they work with in Montego Bay and can provide some recommendations. I would stay at a cliff property for the last couple of days for a change in vibe.

Stay on the cliffs it will be a great ending for your trip. Catcha or Seastar. I'm so bummed that Seastar was all book for my upcoming dates. I always feel safe and its strange to say it but it feels like home.

I second the recommendation to check out negrilonestop. I used to split my trips all the time between CoCo La Palm and Hedo. Both are really great places!

Do not stay in MoBay.....Do 2 nts at the OCF cottages at Xtabi.

2 nights cliffs -- Blue Cave Castle

Question about BCC. We had considered it once before and think we remember reading somewhere that not all rooms have in room bathrooms. It seemed odd but we were leaning towards Rockhouse so did not follow up. Is this the case?
For our dates they have Tower Lower and Superior 7,9,12, and 14 available. Any room recommendations????

I think that all rooms now have bathrooms en-suite...there may have been one of the towers in the past that did not have it right in the room. Of the rooms available, my choice in order of preference would be Superior 9, followed by 7, 12, 14, tower. If you go to the website for BCC you can view pictures of all of the rooms. The yard at BCC is private, secure, peaceful. Coffee is provided every morning, and is ready every morning around 5:30/6:00 a.m. ... The on-site restaurant, Teddy's Hideaway, serves some of the best meals in Negril. Petrona, the property manager at BCC, is the best... In my opinion you can't go wrong with BCC.
