It is difficult to recommend something without knowing how you "Roll"! In other words, do you have to have someone waiting on you hand and foot or do you like to do things for yourself (i.e. All-Inclusive Meal Plans vs find places to eat....etc.). Does it have to be on the beach or would the cliffs work for you?
The best way to get the best information is to give a short paragraph describing your "dream" vacation and maybe a little of the "I would settle for this..." as well!

I have to agree, you need to tell us a little more of what your looking for. We can go cheap and still have fun, or we can get you pampered and still see some of the real Jamaica. I would however suggest you get out and enjoy the real Jamaica outside of the resort if you so decide to stay at one.
Oops!! I guess I should have left more details!! Sorry my first time writing one of these. We want to stay at an all-inclusive we would like to have a variety of food from casual to fine dining. We don't need to be waited on hand and foot, but if we were to have any questions I would like to be able to have someone there to ask and help. We would like to try some water sports and not have to pay to much extra for them. We want to stay right on the beach and be able to take some walks on the beach also. We would also like to take a small trip off the resort to see the island a little. Maybe to see the cliffs and take a hike!! We really are just looking to lay back and relex but also have the chance to experience things that we can't here at home in Wisconsin!! Hope this helps a little, I will also take your advise of using the threads on here to find some information!
Negril is a wonderful place. The beach and the cliff's have two different vibes and you should experience both.
Hubby and I prefer the cliffs. For romance Catcha is perfect. Tensing Pen. These however, are not A/I's. The cave's offers A/I.
As far as taking a trip off the resort. We loved YS Falls/Pelican Bar. However, it is an all-day excursion. But the Pelican Bar is truly unique and YS Falls is just stunningly beautiful. Plus it gives you a chance to see different parts of the island. Most people combine the two because they are located in the same region.
For a quick trip off the resort, you might check out Rick's Cafe (yes, touristy, but still cool for a first timer) for a cold one, watch the divers and catch the sunset. Snorkeling at Xtabi is a great way to spend an afternoon on the cliff's. Just have lunch there and they will be happy to let you snorkel their cove. One of the best coves on the cliffs for snorkeling.
Haven't stayed on the beach, so I can't help you there, but there are plenty here who can.
