I thought you had to have dinner reservations to use Ivan's?

I have heard that as well, but not seen it. It is slow season when they are there, so it should be a non-issue.

Depends how busy Ivan's is. We were able to walk up and get a reservation at the end of January.

yes--chill out and then catch sunset at one of the sea-side spots on the cliffs--plenty to choose from.

Thanks everyone!! that is some great suggestions! We do have a reservation at Ivans on the tuesday, can't wait!!
I think we will take the majority advice.......check in at SS and enjoy a quick walk to the store to get some RS and snacks.....then just hang out with all the other guest as SS for the evening!!Maybe even make some new friends ??
On our first ever trip to the Dominican 15 years ago...we met a lovely couple and their young son on the first meet and greet day.....since then, we see each other very 2 months, they live 1 3/4 hrs from us and we have become so good friend, it's unreal, a true story!!

maybe this will happen in Negril!!

cheers everyone, 2 weeks and 6 days until soon come......

Simon and Cindy.

This is soooo easy in Jamaica...something about the personality of people that visit Negril!
Rob and I have met a lot of people (especially Rob - he's been here much longer) & we always feel lucky to have met so many incredible folks over the years & many we've truly grown to love!

The first thing you can do is buy me a drink I'll be sitting at the bar when you arrive....lol

This is my 4th trip, and every time I've gone I've made plans. None of which, I actually did, LOL! I take that back, I did plan to go to the Rhodes Hall tour/pizza bashment and made it last trip. Other than that, indeed, hang out, talk to other folks, walk around. No matter how many times I go, if I live to be 100, I think I am still gonna hit the ground and be so enchanted by the surroundings, the people, the food, that all plans will quickly be forgotten in favour of just soaking it all in like a sponge. Indeed, enjoy your trip and hope to see you there, I arrive April 2 - 11. I was hoping to stay at Travellers on the beach, but seriously considering the Cliffs this year. I've booked my flight, but have not booked hotel yet.

No problem Mon, I will certainly do that!!! I will be at the poolside of the bar with the wife!! We will be the pale and pasty Canadians, you should recognize us LOL!!
We should be there around 4 pm at the latest..........

Cheers!!
