Where and When This Year???

We are at Marblue from the 23-2 and then Sunset the 2nd to the 9th! A drink would be fun, love to hear where else you have stayed in Tbeach. Always nice to find new properties.

It will mostly be old news to you by then - same as you

Mar Blue 3x (couple in junior suite, solo in verandah suite, large group rented all verandah suites as villa).
Soleil (and the other 2 Sparkling Villas were our group) 1x
Sunset - 1x

I have not had a bad experience in TB since the time we booked a villa and Ivan washed it away the week before we were going!

So far we have stayed at Katamah, hung out at the pool at the Treasure Beachhotelwith our friends that year, villa Optima, Sparkling Waters but had a problem with the pool so they moved us to Villa Elia, Lyric Villa, and now this year Marblue /sunset split. We like to do a different property each week and it makes it feel like two different vacations! Used to spend a week in Negril prior to making our way to Tbeach but find it too much these days. It has lost its charm, Gotten so busy. Won’t say never, maybe next year we will pop in on our way down for a couple of nights. It would be great to meet up for a drink, maybe find a bonfire on the beach on the Friday in between, think it’s March 1! You must be a long time Tbeach bum to have lost the villa to Ivan! That was in 2004, correct? What villa was that?

Sparkling Waters! I think there used to be 4 villas total. The current 3 were damaged and later repaired, but our trip was for a week after the storm, so there was still no power or anything in TB. We switched to a villa in Boscobel that year.

Our first time in TB was 2003, at Mar Blue. Before they added the verandah suites. They just had 4-5 rooms then - and Axel's amazing restaurant.

Unfortunately I won't be in TB March 1 - supposed to be in Negril. I get to Jamaica Feb 9th on the east coast, then Old Wharf Feb 17-22, then 3 days unbooked (but probably TB), then Old Wharf again Feb 25-28. That second group wants to stay in Negril for Feb 28-March 2 and it's their trip so I'll do it. But finding something nice and in-budget there has been a huge PITA. Still not confirmed.

I've eyed Katamah for a long time, want to walk over and see it closer this year. Frenchmans is my favorite bay to stay on...though Calabash is awfully nice too...

I go to Negril when I have a music festival thing to do there, and to hang out with the 3 Dives crew and eat. Beyond that, not really a fan. TB's been my favorite for awhile now

This will be our first year not stopping in negril first. That was always our place as we got married there in’87. Prior to destination weddings it was a bit of work to pull off but we did manage with a group of 42 family and friends. It holds a special place in my heart but it has lost some of its charm. I do love that beach though have walked it from one end to the other night and day! Not sure what your budget is or needs for amenities, but there are still some good deals, depending on what you ar looking for. Our go to has been Rooms on the beach for a while now. Clean modern rooms, nice property, great piece of beach. Stayed at Kuyaba and love the property but not much for a beach, great restaurant tho. Xtabi in the cliffs, or catcha gardens, coral seas cliffs was nice a few years back. Older but clean, nice pool and snorkeling area. So much to choose from, depending again on what you need. For the real budget minded Barry’s Rooms are nice and clean, quite reasonable......used to be miss Gloria’s and now her grandson runs it. Stayed there in 82 I think. Closer to town next to BarBBarn restaurant and rooms. Sounds like you have a full plate, enjoy, your countdown is close!
