First trip To Negril - Not the last one!

[OUV11112]

Day 6 – Total chill day at the beach. Red snapper was very good and the drinks were flowing nicely.

Day 7 - Get up, eat and go to the beach. We then start the dreaded “last walk” back to the resort at 10.00. We had packed most of our things the night before and were out of the room quickly. Albert was waiting for us in the lobby and we had an uneventful ride and flight home. At the Toronto airport the drug dog was getting quite “excited” when a few guys in dreads walked by. His handler had to keep a tight grip on the leash!

There really is a vibe in Negril and we will be back. The real reason we will be back is the people. We were made to feel welcome wherever we went. SATP is really laid back but the staff is awesome. They will go to great lengths to make your stay a memorable one. We have numerous stories of the going out of their way to make sure people were happy including making meals for a girl that was lactose intolerant and could not eat wheat products.

We will definitely go back to Negril whereas there are many locations that we would not return to for one reason or another.

My only real complaint/concern is with regards to the people that visit this beautiful country. Did your parents not teach you any manners? A simple please and thank you is the very least that you can say. Not - 6 dirty monkeys, put the chairs there ..... I also realize, as do the people that work at the resorts, that this could be the one trip of someone’s lifetime and that they do not have any extra money. That being said, the lack of tipping that we saw at SATP was more apparent than other places that we have been to. I know that it is an all inclusive and tipping is included, and also that in some countries tipping is simple not done. I still like to look at it as a way of rewarding good service. If we go out for a meal in Toronto it is going to cost us $70.00 to $80.00 so I look at it if I skip one meal out and take that money on vacation to use as tips it makes me feel better.
