We just got home from 10 great days in Jamaica (our approx 35th trip to Jamaica over the years). We split our stay by starting in a villa on the cliffs at Rockhouse (standard villa) and then moving to Couples Negril for the second half since we love an active tennis vacation and a beautiful beach ... hard to beat Bloody Bay!

We loved the tranquility and beauty of Rockhouse. Our Villa (#15) was rustic, but perfect for us. We loved the views from the bed, the porch, and from our lounge chairs on the edge of the cliff. We liked the pool, the food, and the staff was great. At our villa we could get food delivered via room service at no extra charge (other than a tip) and had shade on the porch, sun on the pad, lounges under our umbrella... it could not be any more relaxing! We would go back right now if it were not for these 'day jobs' we have to go to every day to pay the bills and such.
At Rockhouse the price was a little steep for what was included we thought, but we enjoyed every minute.

In thinking about next time and I think we might want to at least consider some of the other nicer places on the cliffs on the hopes of a better rate. Next time we would probably start on the beach at a place with an active and well attended tennis program and then finish our trip at a relaxing place on the cliffs rather than start on the cliffs and then move to the beach like we did this time. We could really have used a few days at Rockhouse after we were sore and exhausted from our activities on the tennis courts and on the beach at CN.

What I am wondering is... what other resorts on the cliffs are as nice at Rockhouse? Given that the standard Villas at Rockhouse are not luxury accommodations by any means and not much is included in the high nightly price, I am hoping there might be other options nearby that offer similar views, tranquility, beauty, security, and amenities for a better price. We want easy access to the water, not to have to play a game to have chairs we like during the day, good options for meals and drinks, a clean room with a safe, A/C, and ceiling fan.
What other small resorts on the cliffs compare well to Rockhouse in offering the things I have mentioned in a beautiful secure atmosphere without a lot of kids?
How do Catcha, Tensing Pen, and others compare in direct comparison to Rockhouse?
Thanks for any first hand perspectives!
