i have never stayed at banana shout, but have been on the property many times,,, the place is really,really nice... the groundskeeper/maintenance man is Plug, i have known this gentleman for over 25 years.. what a great guy, he worked at drummville cove for many, many years & was very disrespected by old man drummond until he sold drummville, then Plug was offered a job at banana shout & loves it.. i'll be down in a couple of weeks & he is one of the first friends i visit upon arrival.. i stayed on the beach for years then stayed on cliffs at drummville for years & now i stay on the beach again. i would not think twice about staying at banana shout,, maybe next reach.. enjoy

I was able to walk up and grab a cabin last Nov. It was perfect for what i wanted to do which was lay in a hammock and watch the Caribbean do whatever it does. Milo and Marianne were Top Notch Hosts and i was sitting on the porch with a big smile and a Spitfire stout in no time. Evenin time rolled round and Marianne popped over and invited me to eat dinner with them. Turns out a head chef from a local top hotel was visiting and cooking for fun. Some of the best shrimp ive ever had.


the next day was uneventful until i was on a bike ride and some guy on a motorcycle pulls up next to me and shows me my wallet. so i stop and he says hey mon you dropped this can i have a reward? i look through the wallet and its been cleaned out cept my library card. i told him that i had no more money and thanked him for the wallet. twas just my walkin round wallet and i figured someone just got a free 40 bucks and i chalked it up to stupidity and let it go. so i roll back to banana shout and i cant find the real wallet with the cards and the id s. i walk to the office to borrow a phone and Marianne is Great. very concerned and borrowing phones from the staff to call visa to cancel cards. proved to be impossible but damn we tried. Milo walks in and he takes control. I tell him the last place i saw the damn thing was at Kuyaba and they said they didnt see it. Milo rises up and proclaimed that we were going to the hotel and searching for ourselves! so we all piled into the suv and cruised down to Kuyaba and sure enough i had left the cursed wallet in the damn room safe. there was much rejoicing! I was so impressed that the owners of a famous hotel would take time to focus on my problems and actually drive me around Negril to SAVE MY VACATION!
Big Ups to M&M. Love them folks. will be back asap

Two thumbs up for Banana Shout ! We have stayed there a couple of times, and plan to again. The vibe is very special.
Milo, Maryanne and the staff are unbeatable. We have always stayed in Dolphin View and loved it. The only problem we
ever had was the water pressure last may (never thought about using the shower on the cliffs).

We also left a copy of Banana Shout there last spring.....it should still be there. Its easy entertaining reading, and gives
some delightful background on the resort and Negril.

If you wanted to be treated like old friends, and are not loking for a lot of extras.....This is the place.
