If I need a taxi to take us to Ricks Cafe and the Seven Mile Beach, do I just ask my hotel for a referral? Do they have their own Taxi service at Riu Negril? Or should I have someone in mind ahead of time. I see there are Taxi Drivers mentioned on these post, but not sure what is best.

Thanks for any information, Bonnie
If you walk out the front gate, you will see many taxis waiting to drive you where ever you want to go. We use the red plates as they have insurance and registration with the island transportation. As someone else said, make sure you agree on the price BEFORE you get in the car and don't be afraid to negotiate for a fair price - the first one you ask will always be too high Depending on where you want to go on Seven Mile Beach - that should be a very inexpensive ride. Ricks is further and will cost more. On another note, don't let the resort talk you into taking their shuttle bus as you will always pay too much. New Years Eve in Negril is very special and I can't imagine spending it anywhere else!
