    I had tried to find them before but gave up as that website is kind of hard to navigate but after your suggestion I tried a little harder and found them. Thanks

    Re: First Time Visitor to Negril

    My wife and I split our vacations between Negril an HI. Love both. One thing you'll notice is a completely different amount of attention from the locals. As you know, Hawaiians are nice/helpful but usually a little distant. You can count on Jamaicans, especially outside your resort, to want to talk to you. They'll persistently offer lots of helpful suggestions, goods, services, tours, etc. Some people are put off by that and confuse it with being a safety issue. It can be annoying if you just want to walk or shop in peace, but IME it's never been unsafe. Never stayed at RH, but stay at equivalent places and the safes are secure. Staying on the cliffs in Negril is really unique. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

    The road can be intimidating, use caution crossing (they drive opposite), consider a taxi for any distance after dark and bring a small flashlight.

    Thanks for your input. I guess I just got myself worked up by reading to much stuff on the internet. We look forward to a great experience, thanks again!
