Awesome, hey?! My husband recently had a health scare of major proportions... he's not out of the woods yet, but things are looking a bit brighter - part of the reason we took a last minute trip to our favourite place... and he has a new lease on life and is really feeling it!

I agree that firefly has lost some of the appeal now that it is not CO. Glad you had a nice trip, thx for the pics. One moth to go until we are back at xtabi!

Enjoy your trip! We lunched at Xtabi and then went snorkeling... it was a lovely afternoon.

another winnipegger, thank you georgia . . . i also just came back . . . i love the beach and am ready to move to a different hotel . . .
yes, our winter was so brutal, still no spring in site . . .

Ahhhh we could have got together down there and commiserated on the crappy winter at home! We live in Bird's Hill, by the way... retirement can't come quick enough so we don't have to come home after a measly 2 weeks!

the condos that you make reference to are actually townhomes and villas for the most part, all privately owned. if you want a beautiful view with private beach and nice pool there may be folks there you could contact for a stay if so desired

Thanks Rastaron.... might just do that! It's a bit far from the fun little restaurants near town though... but there are plenty of taxis!
We also spoke to a guy who was lunching at Xtabi, and he was from Toronto - retired and sold all his worldly goods a year ago, and then bought a place in a gated community somewhere near Negril... he had a big smile on his face!

Was his name Jim by chance?

Didn't get his name. Looked to be late 50's early 60's average height slightly balding, with a very pretty young Jamaican lady.

It will be interesting to see if Firefly's business declines because of the new owners eliminating clothing optional. Was it the only place on the beach that offers that option? If so it's too bad. We would have entertained it next year but not now that the c/o is gone. Lots of nice places to stay in Negril for well under $200 per night.

Nope, not the guy I'm thinking of. Jim is large, and in charge.
