Hey Johng,
Just got back last night, 6 nights in Negril and 8 nights in Treasure Beach. Can you see the scales tipping here??? Negril was busy and Treasure Beach was relaxed, wonderful and easy on the pocketbook. We stayed at a villa at the end of Old Wharf Rd called Villa Optima. Beautiful location on Calabash Bay overlooking the water and able to swim there. Waters are a little rougher but the views were spectacular. Our friends stayed at your old haunt, Sunsetand they had the upstairs suite they shared with another couple of friends. Loved the location, views and raved about Cory and his staff. We ate at Diner Delicious, Jack Sprats, Frenchmans, Jakes, and of course Smurfs for breakfast one day, although it was a 45 minute walk it was worth every hot minute!!! We had a couple of fantastic girls that cooked up a storm for us with all the traditional dishes, mackerel rundown, callaloo and salt fish, brown stew chicken, curried shrimp, dumpling, bammy, etc so ate more meals in than out. People still ask how you are as opposed to whatcantheysell you and are genuinely interested in hearing about us and sharing their stories. Love the relaxed vibe, and am already planning next years trip. Two weeks in Treasure Beach but woul like to start with one week in the Portland area and then come to Treasure Beach via the east coast as we have not seen that area as yet. Will put some pics up once I finish my up of Blue Mountain coffee laced with Sangsters......the only way to ease back into reality till next years trek����
