    Re: Why do you always go back to Jamaica?

    It is easy to get a non stop from Philly.
    The price is comparable to the Jersey Shore.
    It takes little or no planning.
    Good food.

    However, we tend to take an adventure trip yearly, which is not always easy to get to, not always cheap. and takes considerable planning.
    Last February it was the Ecuadorean Amazon and this March we are headed to Nicagarua.

    And as far as Mexico goes, we have been many times, but not so much for the beach, but for the Mayan ruins, cenotes, colonial architecture, none of which Jamaica has.

    Regards,
    Bob

    Ditto this. Especially the comparison to the Jersey Shore. The wife and I are looking into a long weekend at Cape May for Valentines Day. Hotel prices are easily $200+/night - in the wintertime, when you can't even enjoy the beach! (That's another thing - in Jersey the ocean is really only warm enough to swim in 2-3 months out of the year. Jamaica enjoys a warm current all year round.) I could get a pretty sweet room in Negril for that price, even during high season. In fact, I have never paid that much for a room in Negril.

    Basically, it's hard to justify paying more for a destination when you know you will enjoy Negril more. The food, the music, the people, the activities, the vibe, the culture.
