Beach or cliffs ... a discussion

[Mike_D]

My wife hates moving once we get settled in, so doing a split stay is a no-go. We are confirmed cliff dwellers, but have no problem getting to the beach whenever we want. Like Carrie said, we enjoy staying at the Mirage on the cliffs and take advantage of their free transportation to their sister resort, Charela on the beach. In addition, Mirage throws in a $25 voucher (per person) for use at the Charela restaurant and bar.

Capt. it's great that your Brothers' interest in Negril has been piqued. If they stayed on the beach the first time, why not give the cliffs a try? Tensing Pen is a beautiful property and a great location for exploring the cliffs.

We did a split trip last year and ended up at the beach every day. We were with our 6 year old, so the beach was better suited for us. This year we will be back and staying only at the beach (Palms). We certainly will go to the other side for several meals, etc.

I think it's a simple as whether you are comfortable hanging out at your hotel on the cliffs. We tend to want to move around so that wasn't ideal for us.

Well simple. One couple stays on the beach one on the cliffs. Visit, best both have to offer.
