Buccaneer villa is pretty cool. We stayed there for 4 night a few years ago. I kind of remember that there was no ac but the fans were great and the setup encourages a healthy air flow. Pool is nice and the rooftop area outstanding. Walk down when you see the fishermen returning and pick up your dinner while it is still moving!
Hey Odinson,Originally Posted by Odinson
Thanks for the heads up. We are really looking forward to our stay there. We like to mix it up and stay in two or three different places to make it feel like a few different vacations. Hoping to find a few fresh dinners while we are there.......nothing like a fresh caught fish fry! Are you heading back to Tbeach anytime soon? Love the laid back vibe.......takes me back to the early 80s in Negril, which has gotten a little too busy for us these days.

We are centered around Negril and will occasionally add on extras like TB or Port Antonio. Our next extra will likely be Kingston but I will have to plan that one out a lot more than the others. Next trip is very soon and our only excursion will be moving from one room at Catcha to another - we've gotten super boring and relish the only chance we have to tune out and deep chill.
We met two couples last year who were staying at Buccaneer and they loved it! We were having a beer at Lennox's beach bar right next to Buccaneer. Hopefully he will be open when you are there
Headed back to TB for the third time Feb 22, then going to Belmont to stay at Luna Sea for 3 days. We stay at Sunset and couldn't be happier. We stayed in Negril for two night before coming to TB in July, and that was plenty. Looking forward to playing some music with Oneil and McGuyva!
Hey Tennesseejed, our friends are staying at Sunset so I am sure we will see you down there. We all arrive on the 23rd of February and they are at Sunset and we are at Marblue. Have always been intrigued by the sign Luna Sea as we drive by on our way in and out of Tbeach. Please leave a report or inbox me as to how you find it there. Last time we were in Bluefields area for any amount of time was Ash Wednesday in 1986. We got married in Negril at the Twater hotel and we did a day trip with our small group of 42 to Bluefields Beach for the day as they said it would be super crazy on Negril beach. Our guy set up 2 buses for us and arranged a barbq on the beach, and after we were supposed to go up bamboo alley. Apparently the local police found out a group of crazy Canadian kids were partying on the beach and set up a roadblock to confiscate any apparent contraband, so our driver took us out another way and I never have seen bamboo alley to this day. Always feel it might be vexed!! We must share a red stripe this February!

Hi hey_mon! Wonder who tipped the cops off about your wedding reception? That's hilarious. My actual name is Drew, we'll be staying in the Mermaid room. I'll likely be the only white guy walking around with a guitar. I'll definitely let you about Luna Sea - it looks amazing. I've only spent half a day in the area, so I'm excited to explore a bit more. Look forward to meeting y'all and having that Red Stripe!
hey_mon, glad to see that you have kept this thread happinin. All your tid bits of experiences and fun in Treasure Beach are great to read. As far as Bamboo Alley goes it is a beautiful and amazing site to see. If you drive from TB to Appleton Estate you drive right through the Alley. Your story about your wedding trip to Bluefields is a funny one!! I bet you all went through a bunch of Red Stripes and Appleton. Probably a good amount of Overproof too. I understand that you will be staying near Sunset and that your travel friends will be staying there. Ask Kory at Sunset when he is going out fishing as you can't get fresher seafood anywhere than right off the boat than that. They usually catch Mahi Mahi, Kingfish and Wahoo. Also Tuna and sometimes Red Snapper. Eating on his pool deck watching the sunset while dinning and drinking is priceless!! Everybody who reads this post that has been to Treasure Beach please post your 3 favorite photos that you have taken in TB. I'm really looking forward to some great pics to help ward off this Arctic Blast we have here in New England.
A few of my favorite TB photos -
