No more Sunsets, Rum, Sand, and Gizzadas.....So sorry that you were robbed. Glad that you are okay & home safely with Bea. Thanks for sharing your trip with us. I have enjoyed your writing over the years!
It's sad. Crime like this can affect places like your rental unit, unguarded condos, little cottages, etc.
More business for the gated and guarded I suppose.
Ok this is taking the wind right out of my sails...I have a gloomy bad feeling..I am hoping that you will re-think and re-turn..I know something like this can spoil a place...Every place has its bad elements.....I am ordering my book today and am wondering if you have the makings of a 3rd now? Either way, you have been a gem on this board and I am glad that you are safe!
Oh no, this breaks my heart. I am so glad you are safe but I am so sorry that your love of Negril has been spoiled.

Sooo sorry... makes me worried ... i wonder what happened(none of my buisiness i know)... there was a security dog... i'm just glad you didnt get hurt, also glad it wasnt your wife alone when this happened, not that its better but it could have been worse... bless you for your contributions and your insight is kept close. Keep your head up!
Just another reminder to be very careful. Many of us who are regular contributors to the board have been victimized. I know no one likes bad stuff about Negril being posted, but just so you all can be as careful as possible, here is a little rundown:
-- I had my cell phone stolen (or lost) and whomever got it conned a relative into sending money, then used up hundreds of dollars of minutes, then tried to blackmail me into paying to get the phone back. I was also pick-pocketed in another incident not including an attempted pick-pocketing on this last reach.
-- One boardie had 500 dollars stolen from a coffee mug in his room.
-- Another boardie had his lap top and money stolen.
-- Another boardie was robbed in a much-publicized cab incident.
-- Another boardie was robbed of a laptop and other items in a break-in while in the room.
-- Another boardie had her expensive sunglasses stolen from a bar.
-- Plus a friend of a lot of the boardies was hit by a car, then while on the ground bleeding someone stole his cell phone.
For the majority of us, Negril is relatively safe. But please do be careful and keep your guard up everyone!
True words Gerry G....I guess this is our reminder that no matter how comfortable we are..bad things can happen..I will be a lot more vigilant now..
no wonder more and more ppl opt for the "gates" . . . of course, it's not 100% there too . . .
I'm so sorry that this happened to you, very glad to hear you were not hurt and back home safe and sound with your Bea.
You were really enjoying your time there and some opportunistic ******* took advantage and has spoiled it. Luckily you got a flight out quickly and feeling safer now back in the comfort of your home.
We all enjoyed your words, and now must all be extra careful. This is the 2nd incident now on this board during the past little while. Jamaica is beautiful but can be a very dangerous place, walk safe.
