Any cambio or bank in Negril will give you a fair exchange rate.
Do not exchange money at the airport...they offer the worst rates.
Your hotel will exchange but will not offer a rate as good as a cambio or bank.
You could also bring your Atm card and use the bank machines here for a small fee to acquire Jamaican currency as needed.

We like to use Boardwalk Village. Its just as you come into Negril so very convenient to hit before you get to hotel.

Just don't use the "change buddy?" guy who is usually camped out in front of the cambio at the roundabout. He'll try to burn you if he can. One time I had him get right up in my face and yell "hey f**k you mon" when I refused to use him (cambio was closed). I had already been burned by him once, even though it wasn't for much $, wasn't going to try my luck again.

I read someone on another forum recommending those guys, said they were running some line about needing USD to purchase vehicles from the States to ship over. I thought wow, bet that was one expensive exchange while they were listening to that tale!

Stay away from all money changers you will get burned even if its for $10. When going to an atm take your money out in ja your atm cards usually give the best rate. I've been living off atms for 2 years but now have residency and have my pension sent direct to Scotiabank.

We like the Cambio at Boardwalk too.

We use the Cambio across from Time Square, good rates and no hassles outside.

For over a decade I've used the FX Trader. It used to be in the Hi-Lo but is now in a separate store next door. Have also used the ATM there with good result.
