My regular Hotel has the nicest pool a person could want.
Nice steps leading into the shallow end makes for an easy entry.
But me, I always dive into the deep end to start things off.
There are lounging chairs and small tables along the sides for chilling out.
The beach has soft sand and salty sea full of little fish that will swim close to you.
The beach bar is just a few steps from waters edge and always a bartender
with a cold Red Stripe or 2 waiting for you.
Many different folks will pass your beach bar and it is good for people watching.
At the pool, you will have much more privacy and will not be disturbed too much.
The pool, always calm water.
The beach can have big waves.
You get sun at both.
At night you and your favorite lady friend can skinny dip with candles and cocktails at poolside.
You can skinny dip on the beach, but it is pure darkness and anybody can walk up to you.
Are there chemicals in the pool? Perhaps yes, but it has never bothered me yet.
Of course the salt sea water is considered medicinal.
So, you choose and enjoy yourself.
You're in Jamaica!!
