planning is half the fun! My first time I went to JA I got a fantastic deal through Air Jamaica for Samsara and went AI since I had never been to JA and was traveling solo I thought it would be a good option. As Marko mentioned, the food was not good, and we know how good JA food can be. But I didn't know any better. The drinks weren't great either. But I took the shuttle down to the beach and did a lot of exploring--so next trip I had an idea of where I wanted to be and where I wanted to go eat. I never did AI again--but did make the mistake of booking Samsara again years later and they were very rude to local friends visiting. All of that said, they have a beautiful cliffside spot and Choices restaurant across the street is good--plus plenty of other places to walk to. With AI you can also go down to Legends to eat as well. With a kid, it might be a good option--but be careful of those cliffs depending on his age and sense of adventure.
