I am late for the party!!!!! Hi Guys:-)
A newbie to this forum and It will be my first time in Jamrock:-) We are very excited! My bestfriend and I are planning a Negril trip this Dec 15 to Dec 20.
Any suggestions on accommodations/deals and fun activities? We are very simple to please : sunshine, beautiful beach, good music and a few activities! Are 5 days enough from Toronto, Canada? All suggestions welcome, We shall be celebrating my 30. What better way.. to forget my growing grey hairs :-D!
Also, this forum is such an awesome idea!!!! Hopefully I get to meet a few of you!!

No. Pretty sure you're going to wish you had more! I won't go for less than a week, and that really isn't enough. But, some time is better than none at all
This year's trip will be a little different for me. Occasionally I am a slightly anxious about going this time-I'm going solo and have given up alcohol, much to the amazement of my friends, especially those who have seen me in action in Negril. They still tease me about how I declared the third day of our 2013 trip should be designated "Drinking Day" and the hourly selfies I took chronicling that special occasion. I have given up taking selfies as well.
I love going to beautiful places and doing nothing but this year may be even more mellow than usual. Whenever I wonder if its a good idea to go back, whether I 'll be bored or engage in another epic bout of bingeing - a lyric pops in my head- every little thing's gonna be alright.
One week in Negril gets me through the grind of the next 51 .
Two months from right now, I'll be sitting under a palm tree in a garden having a strong cup of Jamaican coffee along with my Jamaican breakfast, feeling the knots in my neck and shoulders dissolve along with my cares and woes, planning my day of lying on the beach, and then lying in a hammock. I can't wait.

5 days is better than 4! Try the Treehouse to see if they can give you a Groupon like price. You are 1 day into high season but should be able to get something. Also Coco lapalm, Country country, check out the specials on the hotel section of this site. Must do, for a 30 yr old birthday, is One love pub crawl a blast where you'll meet lots of people and see a great slice of the West End. Always try to get a "Drifters" jam session in on a Friday or Sunday afternoon. Since you have a direct flight from YYZ five days is a breeze. I have done a long weekend. I really recommend Club Mobay for a short trip and it pays for itself on the departure especially if the flight I'd delayed. We will overlap one day with you and a birthday drink is not out of the question. Enjoy and feel free to ask any questions here. Someone will be able to lead you right!
Thank you Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited! We noted down all the suggestions. By the end of the week I should have a solid plan.
I used the groupon price for Treehouse for 4 nights but I think I want one night by the cliffs :-) Yes, I changed it to 6 days LOL
Woo hoo!
5 days is perfect for your first time! Then when you get back to Toronto, you will start planning a longer reach! I know we did, although we didn't come back to Toronto. We came back to Michigan.
