looking for budget room 4 1 late april, early may. last year,greenleaf and loved it. how do jahb's and normas' rooms compare? also looking for same on cliff side for half of 10 day trip. cheapest way from mobay to negil? would like to spend $$ on excursions rather than a private taxi. ok with no frills rooms, just need to be clean. thanks for any advice. looking so forward to returning;)
Look at Mango Tree resort on the cliffs. Recently refurbished and great prices.
I used Clive's for a shared transfer, $30 each way and ended up being private. Juta Negril may be a bit cheaper.
greenleaf is much nicer than jah b's . . . and safer too.

Norma's and Jah B's are about the same if you view it as just lodging. I've reviewed both online and sent many a budget traveler to both places....I love both places and their owners! With that said, in a few weeks when I reach I might look into the Villa La Cage ($25 a night) or Mango tree just to try something different...actually stayed at Mango Tree under the old owner and wrote a bad review...but the property kicks ass and the new owners are good people and are worthy of my business. Speaking of which....time to send off some emails to secure my own lodging...
Good luck and please share your lodging experience so others on the cheap can afford more of a vacation.
Just wondering...the pictures look about the same as Jah B's, what makes it nicer? Also, does it have sound pollution like Jah B's has from the Jungle a couple nights a week?Quote:

Many of the "oldtimers" on this board started out staying in similar cottages with outside cold water showers and outside flush toilets - and loved every minute of the stay. If the property doesn't have fans available for the room, they can be purchased either in downtown Negril or Sav.Quote:

i've stayed at jah b's many times until it got to be "congested" . . . i had great friends that stayed at greanleaf and i was a frequent visitor. . . . looking at both, greenleaf is much cleaner and and not as noisy as jah b's. and truth be told, cleaner and safer. . . . jah b junked up the place with all those wooden structures . . . looks a lot like storage place . . .Quote:

barry's is an open yard with 24/7 walk throughs by ???? no control in that yard . . . free for all . . .
What's your idea of super budget? Moonlight Villas is very reasonable and right beside...May be open to negotiation as well.Quote:

As far as budget...was thinking no more than 60. Mango tree looks nice also. Great advice from all.
Willow Gate is right across the road from BCC.Quote:

Croton grove is close by Blue Cave Castle and in that price range has a little grocery store right out front(m&L). You can't go wrong with Croton Grove.
