This seems to speak to the point that Anthony Bourdain was trying to make in his last Jamaica episode.
I think a renovation should be done of the existing buildings. There is no need for a high rise in the area. If people want to stay in this type of setting, there are plenty of places around Jamaica. Also, the group that purchased Grand Lido, did a wonderful job of the Royalton White Sands in Trelawny. What was old is new again.
There are alot of tall empty resorts all along the hip strip right up to the airport runway that are now and for many years have not been used in Montego Bay. Just saying.......short term maybe progress, long term? lacdeloo
The reason for this post is so the government entities involved (who are aware of this thread) can read the direct interests of their visitors before the rules are changed. Change is always inevitable, but how things will change is not set in stone. With the well thought out and helpful postings of many here, the powers that be will be able to make decisions that will be beneficial to all those concerned - the property owners as well our valued visitors.
This post would serve little purpose if the decisions have been finalized - your input can and will help influence the future of Negril and the Green Island development. Dont worry about missing Negril, your input can guide Negril into the future.
