Hello to all of you,
I'm Canadian french so I will do my best to write down in english my trip report. I stayed at Bar-B-Barn June 15th-22nd.
It was my 2nd time in Negril. First time was last april for 2 weeks. This reach was a first non AI hotel.
I really enjoyed being at Bar-B-Barn. I had a deluxe room which is basic compared to AI resorts that I have stayed to. There was a king bed, refrigerator, A/C, TV, no phone in the room, breakfast was included and was good. My room was a few steps to the bar and beach. Very clean, always had hot water, they changed towels every day and for the sheets every 3 days.
Besides breakfast, I ate a few times there for lunch and dinner and it was average. Except for the pizza at Angela's, it was awesome. For the prices, i would say it was about the same as in Quebec, Canada. Not that cheap.
With a friend, I went out for dinner to a few places where locals go and was veryyyyy good and cheaper. I really loved that. I ate some good Jamaican food.
The workers there are very friendly and make you feel like as home. Everyone remembered my name. Very family oriented. The drinks at the bar are very good and are 5,50$us. I tried a dirty banana there for the first time, oh wowww so good and many more loll.
I went to Alfred's one night while a band was there and that was awesome too. Very good music. The cover charge is 600,00$ja. There rum punch is "heavy". lolll
The weather was very nice. It was very hot and a few days it rained but after a while the sun came back.
One thing that i did not like, the vendors on the beach. Oh my god, they are annoying. I understand that they have to make a living but a few of them were insisting. I said "no thank you" and for the most of them it was ok.
I will stop here, i hope my report is not too boring to read. As i said, not good in english but i wanted to give you a little of my stay there. I learned so much here about Negril that i wanted to share with you my trip.
Thank you
Christine
