That is a good price and I totally understand why someone would choose to do Jamaica this way. I, on the otherhand, stay for 4 to 6 months at a time and I also agree that "once you go you know".
If you are choosing between mid to higher price hotel as a non-AI vs an AI, it is a real no-brainer.
Those of us who stay longer need to do it in a different way. Either way, Jamaica is "sweet". I hope (and know) you will have a great time!
