    No this did not happen at Rondel-she felt very safe there and the security is very good as well- she walked out of Rondel towards Rooms taking a sunset stroll on the beach while husband was in the shower

    thanks Deanna. U do feel secure at Rondel, they have security front and back... Some are speculating however, this robbery took place at Rondel... Rondel runs a professional operation, they seem to care deeply about their reputation and their guests... And if this did happen on their property, I'm sure they aren't happy about it...

    Did they have to climb the outside of the building to get to the third story balcony or was there stairway access?

    I'm wondering if there has been a steady increase of theft in Negril in just the past few years. It sure seems like it's getting worse, and I am indeed factoring in the advent of the Net. I would say more than half of tourists friends that visit regularly have been victimized. If I didn't love the place so darn much I would go to Cancun or Hawaii. But I guess I'm willing to risk it, plus be extra careful. Let's all watch out for each other where we can, folks.

    I think most properties have security front and back. That is 2 people covering a large property who would have to have eyes in the back of their head too! Not blaming the property. It could happen anywhere. Also not really speculating as she mentioned where she was staying in a previous post.

    I think crime is happening more and more because us tourist have more stuff that we bring- iPhones laptops cameras.. However that is no excuse to be robbed

    I was going to ask about Rondel. I hope it was not there being thats where we have been staying there over the years, i was taken back a bit this reach to find out they they sub contracted their security at night. I did not like the change at all , I just felt the long time staff had better reasons to make sure thay had great security. We had no problems being on the ground floor sharing a villa with my brother and his wife, but we were very diligent making sure all was locked up whether it was day or night and we were only down to bar ect. on property . If no one was going to be in the room we locked it up.We love Rondel so was bit upset at the security change but then again we don't knoiw where this happened and it could happen anywhere including home.
