    Hi Rob,

    Thanks for posting the price of a 400 gal tank. I'm going to get one for the house spot.

    There's no problem with water at the yard or in Negril either for that matter....

    I can't figure out where this stuff starts????

    the same water situation exists in other parts of jamaica, perhaps even worse . . . for instance, in the hills of portland, the ppl may get water out of the pipe 1 out every 5 days for a few hours, that's it!!! . . .

    those tanks are not "very inexpensive", they are "VERY EXPENSIVE" for the regular folks and a lot of folks do have them and even more don't have them!! . . . so, negril is not the only place that suffers from shortage of water in jamaica.

    as a frequent traveller to jamaica, i'm always conscious of my use of water and try to do my best to conserve.

    It was removed as it did not follow the guidelines that were agreed to when the account was registered.

    Very interesting reading for sure. I generally don't use Trip Advisor much but when I was googling something I came across this article:
    http://www.tripadvisor.ca/Travel-g14....Visitors.html

    which states:
    Travelers to Negril should be prepared for-- unavoidable poverty, limited environmental controls: uncollected garbage alongside the roads, raw sewage pumped directly into the ocean, and enormous resorts that have been built as a hindrance too the long term ability of this area to self-sustain.



    How can they get away with saying this? I'm more apt to believe Rob than TripAdvisor, but can't they get sued or something by making such statements?
