    onthecorner are you familiar with this area of the beach? I loved the feeling of the beach around NBCC but would rather like you said be safe than sorry!

    Actually, I think the beach area by The Palms is much nicer than at NBCC...

    i agree with patricia.....the beach at the palms is a bit nicer and i actually like the location better as well.....i have never meet jean but from reading on here i would certainly not book a room there unless i booked directly thru her.

    Absolutely correct! I just returned from Negril Beach Club and after my timeshare expired, I have only rented directly from Jean. I would never suggest to anybody to book any other way. She rents the room that are individually owned but also has access to rent some of the better hotel rooms.

    The pool deck has been repaired and looks really nice. The bar/restaurant is just okay which is disappointing. The bar restaurant is managed separately and I hate to see it sitting there pretty much empty as it's some prime real estate. They do offer an all day special of 6 Red Stripes for $10 - awesome for us but bad decision for them.

    Security is at the front and in the back and they are doing a great job. I love it there and can't imagine staying anywhere else.

    Never booked through any of the travel sites like expedia I have always wnet through Jean's staff. Inspite of the negative things people are saying I have never had an issue. We will be returning there for the 5th time in a few weeks (out of 10 trips to Negril total) NBCC has been my family's (wife and daughters who are 7 and 3) go to place. No it is not fancy, some may even say it is not even nice but we have always been made to feel safe and comfortable and it fits nicely with the way we like to travel.

    Just to clarify.. My concerns were not for NBCC but for Mariners which to my understanding is attached or located on the property of NBCC but have different owners/management etc. It is also my understanding NOW that NBCC does not use sites such as expedia and I was being booked into a room at Mariners under the name of NBC and from only having visited one time previously I did not know this! I am traveling alone with another female friend and thought better safe than sorry. I will know better the next time! Thanks again everyone.

    We have stayed with Jean Gaynair and her wonderful staff many times over the last 6 - 7 years and never had any problem. Mariners side was ,as Rob said , taken over by Absentee Ownership and they are doing nothing to maintain their units. A year or 2 back , all the Mariners units lost their power one December as they had neglected to pay their JPS bills and were shut off !! All Of Jean's units on N.B.C.C. had no power issues since they were on a separate Meter!! Always book directly with Jean thru her website !
