Rhodes does have more to do, but Half Moon Beach has a bit more of an away-from-it-all feel, and that's an important element .... Rhodes has much better snorkeling, based on the fact I snorkeled Half Moon for like a half hour and saw NOTHING .... Rhodes has always been five dollars when I arrive at the gate, but they're advertising now that's it more money -- that's kind of a Jamaica thing, you just have to go with the flow ... Half Moon is free, and the food is amazingly good, even for Negril; never ate at Rhodes but have heard good things, mostly from Vince who is incredibly loyal to that place .... Some of the rooms at Rhodes look amazing.

Updated: Rhodes also has a pool, and that's a huge plus (saltwater pumped from ocean, it's cool); nice to have a Scooter and do both places!
