A coworker wants to try Negril for the first time and is considering one of these 2 properties. Has anyone stayed at either of them to advise which one would be better for a first timer? Both are in good locations on the beach and look good from the beachside but don't know any more that that as to hotel conditions, rooms, food, pool, etc.
Thanks for any info :)
Coco LaPalm
Never stayed at Merrill's, but saw the place. Hands down go to Coco! Been there a few times and it's fabulous. You won't be disappointed. Best location on the beach and very centrally located.
Coco!!!
Coco LaPalm!
Coco!!
coo coo for coco!
CoCo was great!!!!!
I've stayed at Coco (last year) and Merrills 3 (when it was Negril Relax but run by Merrill's) a couple of years ago.
Hands down, Coco!! Merrills is all inclusive if that is what they want - but Coco has a much better property and with the
frig in the rooms you can probably eat and drink cheaper. Also, a better part of the beach in my opinion.
I don't think that you can even compare the two. Coco for sure.
Difficult to compare the to as Merrill's is an AI property and Coco isn't
If they are seeking an inexpensive AI then Merrill's is a good fit, it's been a long while but stayed at II in a beachfront room. Nothing special but decent and for what we needed it worked well.
Not considering the AI option than Coco for sure. Nice large rooms, nice beach front with lots of shade, fridge in the room and just a well maintained property.
Haven't stayed at Merrill's, but we have stayed at Coco 2x now. It's a great spot on the beach, especially for a 1st timer. The beach and staff are both wonderful...
Thanks for the replies! I'll pass the advice on :)
It seems to me that I've read the AI offerings at Merrill's are pretty basic. I'd rather have a bottle and beer in my room fridge and eat at all the wonderful eateries around, all price ranges. I also think I've read there's lots of non-English Europeans staying there. I'd prefer Coco for sure, you can get some good deals there off season.
This will be our second time to Merril's 2. Priced so we can enjoy our time there and also wander anywhere else. :cool:
Well Dana1, looks like your question was answered !
Third time CoCo,,,never stayed at Merril 2.....CoCo does include the breakfast and small charge to order more.It also includes all taxes and the discount card is legit? Co Co is a Go Go ya know Joe?
Coco hands down
