Its scary when you think of how negril has changed. It will take alot to keep me from spending time there but i will say its changed alot and i dont do the things i used to do, like walking home from MiYard at 4 or 5 am and spending time at some of my other late night hangouts in the west end. I always felt safe anywhere i went in Negril and i still do but i will admit i am much more cautious now and dont put myself in alot of situations i once did. Partly because i am older and partly because i have learned to be more cautious because of things i have heard and seen. It seems that its mostly the longtime visitors who stay at the smaller hotels and non ai properties and i know so many people who have gone once or twice and will never go back and if they do they will only stay at a big all inclusive property and never leave the grounds and venture out and see the real Negril. Scares me to think of what will happen in the future when all us long time visitors can no longer go or decide to start going somewhere else. I always speak highly of Negril but i dont reccomend it as much as i once did to people i know who have never been there and if i do i usually tell them if its thier first time they should either come with us or goto an all inclusive resort and try to go on a tour or two when they are there. I really hope things change for the better so Negril can thrive and continue making people fall in love with it like i did
