1974 friends of my boyfriend(now husband) had come to Negril and told us we have to experience it! We came, flew Air Jamaica( rum punch and fashion show on the way) We wanted to rent a car(very naive) and never reserved it... ended up with a VW bus for the first week. Couldnt figure out why people were trying to flag us down.(they thought we were the bus) Stayed in Red Ground at a play run by someone named Pearl..... it was either $5 or $7 a nice..full kitchen, living and bedroom. Woke up to roosters crowing , breadfruit cooking and children marching off to school in there perfectly pressed uniforms.
drove to the beach everyday...private secluded and owned by the person who owned the Hilltop View cottages. Ate some breakfast at the fancy restaurant at the Villas in the round a bout............... and just fell in love!!!!!!! Came back in 1976 and then when my daughter was one year old and we stayed at the villas.
loved walking with flashlights...crabs running across the road at night,,, the sands club... the wharf club.

Stopped coming because of children (now 3) and came back in 2005 and every year since.....We missed our love!!!
