Flip - you should definitely check it out, everyone loves Seastar!
AND you can do that anytime you want if you tune in to the webcasts on Saturday night

Marley you are awesome, your help and reply to this thread is absolutely faultless. I think you should be the resident answer person ha ha! ♥

Why can't it be your second trip THIS year?!?!?!?!

Well because Gary doesn't have the time off. It is planned a year in advance. His week off in Dec is like the 9th or something. But, we are going to be good parents & take our kids on a cruise for Christmas instead of buying them mindless gifts from a mythical figure! I'm not real happy about a cruise, but the kids seemed really excited when we suggested it.

So next year... New Years (Disclaimer: Gary must get the time off approved! uggghhhh )

And I'm still jealous! I can't wait to hear about it!

[marley9808]

Ok it's a deal!

And...I'm sure you'll have a great time on a cruise too

Hey Mindfulgirl, be sure you roll over as we will be there too hanging with Marley and Ninja. I would say if you are looking for Haight Ashbury vibe stay at Banana Shout. It is rustic, doesn't have AC, however it only has 4 rooms I believe so it would be nice to spend time with your honey. If you want more upscale and a little more square place I would pick Tensing Pen. And Seastar is a great place to hang out and chill in there pool with there swim up bar and great staff.

Just to keep you posted, we discussed it, and TP is just going to be too $$ for us right now (we're both in sort of a weird spot with our jobs, so if anything happened, we'd need the extra $).

After all of this, I think we're switching to a one bedroom lagoon cottage at Villas Sur Mer. Not directly on the cliffs, but it has a cool underground cave to get to the cliffs and ocean, a lagoon pool and hot tub, a bar, and access to food from LTU. It's a tad pricier than Banana Shout and doesn't have the "wow" factor view, but it seems like an overall good bet for a honeymoon. Same general area as Banana Shout, too, so we'd still be able to stop by Ivan's and Seastar.

Thanks so much for your help, everyone!!

clarity and her hubbyman stayed @ Villa Sur mer on their anniversary and the place looks Amazing judging by their photos. I dont think you'll be dissapointed at all.

Hope I make it in Dec and crosspaths w you on the best end.

'Gratz!

[marley9808]

Nicely done!
I actually think you made the best choice with Villa Sur Mer....you will NOT be disappointed......go check Clarity's trip report for pictures AND video!
Be sure to tell them it's your honeymoon


Congrats

Thanks, Tizzy and Marley! I cannot tell you how relieved I feel hearing you guys say that. I felt SO GUILTY canceling because OneStop told me that the owner (Milo) would be really disappointed. (I get guilted very easily). But this just seems like a more comfortable option for our honeymoon and our first time in Negril.

Updated to say that Clarity's advice/videos/pix were a HUGE factor in this decision. Clarity, if you're reading this, you should be getting PAID, girl.

[marley9808]

No problem!
Oh, and I know what you mean about feeling bad, but I bet I can cheer you up real fast

See if this doesn't make you feel better:
