Did not read everything but I will. I wonder how long these smaller resorts will be in existence .. that's what makes it Negril, the place we love. 12 Foot walls along NMB and no local ambiance on the beach at all .. now how would that fare? In all fairness to security personnel, they have a lot on their plate for a small wage and have no authority or way to defend themselves. Leave the Ipads, fancy gadgets and jewellery at home or stay in a fancy resort and lock it all up in the fortress. Walk around with these things or having them in your room in any poor country where people have little work, you are a target. Yes, invasion of privacy and potential for getting hurt are not acceptable, but this is a new world order unfortunately. There are few places to stay anywhere now that are not expensive up front, during or after your holiday (if you have to replace stolen goods.) Happy weekend everyone.
