My friends returned from Port Antonio - they had a great time with a couple not super unusual poor experiences. They gushed about the overwhelming natural beauty and friendly people. They ended up stating at the Jamaica Palace Hotel - large, white Euro architecture devoid of character (their words). He got locked in the loo for 30 minutes by a malfunctioning lock then were moved to a room with broken AC and a single lightbulb that they moved from bathroom to bedside. They were warned about the rough surf but swam anyway and had a great time.
Their final thoughts were that the ability to converse with the locals and made it a beautiful experience and that they will definitely go back and sail around the whole island - they are both captains so that would work just fine. I've flown over the whole island (truly amazing experience) but sailing around it would be a dream come true.
Besides warning me about the travel alerts posted in US and Canada, they
wait!!!!!!!!!!!!! you didn't finish!!!!!!!!!!
i would be annoyed about getting stuck in the bathroom, but then the lightbulb would've pushed me over the edge!
i really hope they do sail around the island- that would be a really memorable trip. i'm not a sailor at all but i have friends who are. it's a whole different lifestyle.
i'm glad that they wound up feeling it was a worthwhile trip.
next time they should stay at great huts or something similar.
That was kind of dangling but really not much more to share.
I do understand about the 'little' issues that come up. We stayed at Catcha last Nov and our toilet would not fill the tank and therefore could not flush. We let the Mgr know, they came in and fixed it - worked for a day then stopped again. We just kept the ice bucket in the bathtub, filled that and used it to flush for the rest of the trip - it was only another 1.5 days and we did not want to have our last moments interrupted. We did get a breakfast at Ivan's comped for our trouble.
