Very nice looking room

Sweet....Nice rooms and rates. Very nicely manicured grounds.

On Living Social's main caribbean escapes page, there's a little mistake: they're referring to Our Past Time Villas as 'Jamaica Inn'. Hopefully this will be fixed later today....

Hi Jitterbug,

It's safer for you to go through living social. If you need to get a refund for any reason, with Living Social, you're guaranteed to get it because you're covered by their terms and conditions. If you go directly through the hotel, there's no guarantee they'll give you a refund in the event that your travel plans change. Also, people who go through Living Social get a special low tax rate of 10%. Normally, the hotel's rate is higher.

Thanks for your question.

I tried to do this with another living social-type deal at another hotel. When I called the hotel, I was told that the deal was being offered through a travel agency and not the hotel, and that I would have to purchase the deal through the website that was offering it in order to get the special rate. I was also told that a certain block of rooms were reserved for this living social-type deal; in this case they were first floor rooms with less than optimum views. So I then asked the hotel if they would be able to offer me a similar rate if I booked directly through them. Well, they did not match the terms of the living social deal, but they did give me a discount off the regular rate, they waived the taxes and they gave me a better ocean view room. So, I paid a little more, but I got the room I wanted.

YMMV. This was a different hotel and a different deal site.

Hi Mike,

I think you're talking about a promotion I did for Mirage Hotel in Negril? I'm glad you were able to get the room you wanted.

With the promotion I'm currently doing for Our Past Time, no rooms are restricted...

i did a groupon thing once and never again. not worth it . . . it was more hassle than it was worth . . . the hotel charged this outrageous tax on top of the deal . . . in the end, it was not a deal at all . . . so, i would be very reluctant to buy any kind of third party deals.

Jitterbug,

I totally understand what you're saying. However, with this deal, the only tax will be 10% at check-out (I negotiated this deal for living social customers). That's it...For example, if you get the $320 package, your tax is 10%, which is $32. So the total would be $352...

Have done many. Add in the taxes and do the math prior. No surprises, only good experiences. Often easier to get refunds then from I independent hotels.

Looks pretty nice ....

Hi Jitterbug,

Thanks for your post. People have been getting the voucher (because it is a pretty good discount and Our Past Time is on a nice stretch of the Negril beach). I won't know the total number of people who got the vacation until the deal closes on Dec 28. Will let you know :)
