I stayed at Beaches shortly after it opened as a guest of my Travel Agent/friend who had it comp'd. It was great, but I always used to say the same amount of money would get me at least 2 trips with my budget. My very first trip was in 92, and Grand Lido had just opened and Apple vacations had a killer deal. It was only a 4 night stay to see what I thought of Jamaica. I obviously liked it, LOL.
