I think it is really is personal preference. I love to stumble out of bed in the morning, throw on my suit and jump in the sea, without having to get a cab, walk a distance, or coordinate with a van. I also love having my first cup of coffee gazing at the sea. Seastar is awesome, and they are famous for repeat guests and wonderful hospitality, and I enjoyed my stay there. But I found that for me, being on the water is a key component in what I look for when on vacation. Either way, Jamaica is sweet and has something to offer for almost every kind of traveler.
