Cottage in Negril - where should I find mine?

[Bnewb]

Hey Bnewb, thanks for the suggestions - I've scoped out all but Sunshine Village, I'll check that one out - have you any personal experience owning in Jamaica?

I have a realtor, lawyer and also several private contacts feeding me for sale tips but hoping to hear someone's sale pitch on where they own

I don't have a sales pitch for you but I will say that if you're going to be living in Negril...there is no location that would be "not too close to tourists".
Our property is in-country, outside of Negril in a typical neighbourhood/yard...we live here 365 days a year though...not sure if that's what you are planning to do. There are pockets of expat/snowbird locations like the properties I've listed above and just out past the lighthouse, if that appeals to you more.
If you are interested in a single home and land, that can be found also...but might be a bit pricier. Another option that is fairly common is to buy a home or build a home on leased land.

We're planning on a proper hillside villa with some land in a few years but at the moment I just need a place to call my own... "not too close to tourists", well the best fit has been narrowed down and we have decided on the perfect location - we are so excited and have put offers on 2 studio suites! One has been accepted (no paperwork yet, but in progress) and the second is in 'soon come' mode - if you know what I mean!

I'll update on the property location if anyone is interested once we ink the deals.
