Xtabi?

[captaind]

Seastar is booked for the first four nights of our next trip and I'm looking at Xtabi on the garden side in a "superior" room.

Your thoughts and Any help?

Thanks

I stayed at Xtabi superior rooms two years in a row

Just for reference, in all of my trips to Negril the only other place I have ever booked more than once is Catcha Falling Star (which is my all time favorite place on earth)

So yes, I love Xtabi, and though we may not stay there now, we definitely would stay there again (let's say if Catcha was booked) and we still visit them multiple times throughout each and every one of our trips.

If you get one of the top floor rooms like 15 or so, you can still catch a glimpse of the water from your balcony and still see a nice sunset.
The rooms are large, have a/c and are IMO one of the best values on the cliffs. Plus just a walk right across the street to the ocean, bar, restaurant. Can't beat it for location and value as far as I am concerned.
Go for it!

I've stayed in a superior garden room at Xtabi, but it was probably 12 years ago. I loved it. Clean rooms, beautiful grounds, good restaurant, gorgeous cliff area, great caves and a small shell beach entrance to the water. I'd be going back there this trip if it hadn't been so special for me w/ regards to my ex. Need to start some new memories with a great lady, I'll be staying at Home Sweet Home.

Use to stay at Xtabi quite a few times and generally in the same type of room you mentioned. Enjoyed it a lot...but the only down side was that the rooms only had a double bed. We find that a little hard to do now days...just not enough room, so use to a king or queen size bed. The up side, the bar was quite nice with some great snorkeling. Have a great birthday Captain!!

Love the Upper Gardenside Superior rooms at Xtabi - very peaceful and have everything we need at a great price. The only warning I would say is that it would be best to stay there before Seastar as the beds aren't as comfortable! I know room 15 has a Queen size bed and a great Housekeeper named Sheron - she treats us like a Queen and King every year!

My wife and I stayed at Xtabi in 05 and again in 07 and loved it both times. We are planning to stay there again in feb 2013.The rooms, grounds and pool are very nice and it had a great vibe. It's just a short walk to the bar/restaurant/ocean and many places nearby to eat, drink and chill. The caves and rock platforms are very cool also.

Absolutely and without a doubt the best meal I had on our trip was a Conch steak at Xtabi.
We had some great meals but that was hands down the best.

PS try to make Milton smile.

Just booked three nights at the end of our reach this summer to Xtabi-- gardenside with AC. I couldn't beat the price and I have only heard wonderful things about the place. I will be asking for a second floor room, though, after reading this!
