Thanks Marko & poolguywindsor (almost a neighbor there),

I see now that Sea Wind isn't really close to Sandals - google maps is VERY confused about Negril business locations, hoping the negrilinfo.com map is accurate.

Looks like Past Time is only regular hotel that is close at all, plunked right between Sandals & Beaches Sandy Bay. Downside is that it is far from all else, but as you said rides are cheap. Struggling now with desire to be in middle of everything vs close to wedding party and quieter.

Might get wrong impression of Negril, being in quiet place on the cliff too, eh?

Still pondering on adding more days to tour rest of island. Need to quit thinking soon & start doing.
