Woman Traveling and Staying Alone in Negril. Is it safe? Anyone else do this?

[Kritter]

I am a solo female and have traveled all over the island, usually solo. Most of my stays have been in Negril. Like someone else said, don't walk the beach at nite, if u go out at nite, use a driver. Ask your hotelier for a reliable driver, treat him kindly and respectfully, tip him well and he will likely be your fiercest guard. Jamaican men will hit on you, will call u 'beautiful lady', will ask u why your husband isn't with u, and will insist that u need a Jamaican husband ..... Smile politely, enjoy the flattery, and firmly but kindly assure them that you are not 'that type' of woman, and they will 'get it.' But don't hesitate to engage in conversation with them, they will remember you, and 9 out of 10 of them are genuinely good ppl, and will watch out for you and jump in in a minute if someone starts hassling you.

The first time I went to Negril was on business, and one of the worker men greeted me with a boisterous, "Good Morning beautiful lady." I blushed, cuz I wasn't used to it ..... But it still brings a smile to my face and makes me feel beautiful��

TAH, you are correct, some brief separation can be a good thing.. maybe if my ex would of let me go to Negril for 2 weeks by myself, we would still
be together............hmmmmmmm.....naaaahh !!
