Long time visitor to Negril and saw some good prices at Negril Palms, looking for some insight into what to expect. Safety, rooms, etc.

Stayed there the last 2 Februaries. Like it a lot. Restaurant/bar not the best or worst but great location to explore the million options on the beach. Hi for it!
I highly recommend the Palms. I had 4 visitors there last year.

A few things to add to my previous report:
* There is a GREAT little restaurant across the street, maybe 100 feet to the right. It's down a driveway behind what looks like a house. I can't remember the name of it, but we stumbled across it and were blown away. 6th visit to Negril for me and this is a top 5 place to eat in my eyes (and affordable!)
* The rooms vary greatly. Some of them are quite small and dark. particularly on the first floor. Definitely bring a flash light. The first year we were there we literally could not see in our room, regardless of time of day. I had to bring the suitcase outside to find anything. The nice rooms are quite nice, however.
* For breakfast I'd go next door or down to Cafe Goa down the road.
It sounds like you are referring to Marge & Ossie's Restaurant ( commonly known as Ms. Madge's ) which is located in the yard behind their house. For over 30 yrs it was located on the beach side of the road directly across from Ossie's Jerk Centre and moved across the road into their yard a few years ago. Ms Madge has always served awesome home cooked meals. ( You won't find better kingfish anywhere. )

We always try to catch a meal at Ms Madge's, and always loved the old family style Jamaican vibe. Preferred the old location across the road but good to see the family is keeping the business going. You have to try Lena's In Thing (at Donaldson's) for breakfast, right next door. Kadina will put a smile on your face and cook you a delicious Jamaican omelette. Also nearby, on the beach side of the road, is Juicy J's. We've had a number of good dinners there - shrimp and mash potatoes was a particular favorite. All good Mon!

Stayed at Negril Palms before and booked again for Feb/March. Rooms were very clean, gardens beautiful and we liked the tables in the middle "courtyard". The pool was kept clean daily and always enough beach chairs. Not the best place for breakfast......slow service but food was good! Too many other options for eating so this did not bother us. Can't wait to be back to visit with good friends.
Bare bones, friendly staff, responsive to any issues you might have (water heater for us). We love that end of the beach, so when we see their specials, we certainly don't dismiss them.
