Where should the 3 Amigo's stay???

[heater]

I don't think that I would go with Seastar either. Coco La Palm, White Sands, Kuyaba...definitely stay on the beach. I know there are a lot of Seastar lovers on this board, but went for a buffet and music and it wasn't my thing.

I agree, I loved Seastar for going Solo or couples, but 3 guys on the beach is the way to go. Being where the action is and being on the Beach where things are happening is the way to go.

40+ seastar sounds great
20 somethings BEACH

(Please dont take offense boardies that may read this a negative way...)

Personal, if I wanted to be around a bunch of experienced North America's, way up on the cliffs, waiting around for a shuttle to take me to the beach, then Sea Star is an awesome hotel. Beautiful gardens, tranquil vibes, can't say about the food but the drinks are good....

If I wanted to be around a variety of vacationers, right on the famous Negril Beach, in the center of a lot of activity, with easy, cheap local taxi fare to take me anywhere... to Sea Star perhaps....then a hotel on the beach would be the way to go...IMO.

Well said ... callme2 ......
We did the split a few years back ...
& (although they have a shuttle ) ...
miss walking out our room right onto THE BEACH ...
Try Mom's Place or Barry's ...
save your $$$ for important things...
like RED STRIPE

Great!! Now I'm more confused than ever....lol . Every time I lean towards trying the Seastar Inn someone talks me into staying on the beach side. " FOR REAL "
though thanks to all for the input, very helpful & gave me a few (new) things to think about. Either way it will be a delight to be back in Negril!!!

I don't come all the way to Jamaica to not be able to walk a few feet at at least see the Sea, just sayin'.

hell i'm almost 60 and want to at least WATCH the action on the beach, and i love being able to walk and eat --- or lounge and eat

now if i was just trying to find a clean place to flop and i was 3 single men --- i'd book that double wide right in front at Jahb's walk through Roots Bamboo - about $35 per night - bathroom - restaurant - cross the street --- BAM - beach

MAYBE if i had a sweetie i'd stay on the cliffs . . . for now i visit the cliffs for food lol

Try to get an apartment at White Sands - perfect for 3 guys on the beach.

Hey there Kahuna!
I'm curious...does the 1bedroom apartment have actual beds in the living area OR are they just couch/beds ?
thanks!

Go for the beach.

My buddy and I stayed at White Sands in Aug. He was a first timer. He loved it. we spent no time in the hotel. It's a good spot on the beach.

I am pretty sure there are 2 double beds in the bedroom and 2 twins in the living room.
