Best Seaside Cottage at Xtabi?

[wpyogi]

wpyogi - I've booked #4 for a few days mid-April 2013. I'm wondering if you have any tips regarding the cottage? I'm wondering how warm it gets inside in April, did you find it had good cross ventilation? What about the upstairs bedroom, is there any opening windows, was it quite hot? I saw your comment about the LOUD fan in the bedroom!

Thanks!

Hey Melody- Yay! You will have a great time in #4. I never thought it was too hot inside the cottage. #4 has great ventilation. A few mornings, I would sit out on the deck and read...........and cook, lol! All I had to do to cool off was grab a glass of water and hang out in the living area for a few minutes. Yes, the fan upstairs can be LOUD when it is on high. It is a high powered fan to say the least. The particular night in question when I noticed how loud the fan was involved a lot of partying which left me incapable of getting out of bed in the middle of the night to turn it down, LOL. It didn't wake me up any of the other 5 nights we stayed there.

I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. The staff takes excellent care of you. A few shout outs to Sharon, Omar P., Omar S., Dwight and Kevin. Thanks for the reminder, btw. I need to book April 2013 as well

Thanks wpyogi & Aud-A-Sea! I'm relieved that we won't be sweltering inside. I'm going with a friend and Natasha informed me that they can bring in a single bed - is there plenty of room for one in the living area? The two bathrooms will be great - us two ladies won't have to share! Were there enough towels, did you bring your own beach towels for outside?

Did you find everything you needed in the kitchenette? I don't plan to cook, but definitely looking forward to having a coffee pot, fridge, and perhaps the ability to heat up some leftovers?

I'm getting excited already! Only been to Negril once, in February, and stayed on the beach but visited Xtabi for a few hours. We're planning to stay on the beach for a few days in April as well...as of right now, we've booked Xtabi for the first 3 nights of our week in Negril, not sure if it would be better to switch to doing the beach first? I suppose either way would be good! RyanP, which way are you booking, beach or cliffs first?
