We've never stayed AI and have been going to Negril for almost 30 years. Everything you've read is true to a greater or lesser degree, just be sensible when you are out. We are staying both on the cliffs and the beach this coming April and will treat both areas with the same amount of 'respect'. As for hotel safety, chose a hotel that has good reviews or ask here. Most beach hotels have security of some type, some more effective than others. We will not be worrying about 'safety' when we get back to Negril, we will stay sensible. By the way, it's a great time of the season you are thinking about. The weather is still great, but the Easter crowds have calmed down a wee bit. And of course, BOARDIE BASH.
