    I just remember driving past the lighthouse past Rick's and continuing on that road and all of a sudden you come upon this residential neighborhood that reminded me of southern Florida not Jamaica. If you check Google Earth you can see what I'm talking about. I haven't been to Negril in 13 years and don't know / recall where Westender is. I never stayed on the West End as I preferred the beach life as opposed to the cliffs. Rumor has it that there were scenes from the movie Pappillon filmed in the cliffs area in the early 70's where Steve McQueen jumps into the sea while Dustin Hoffman stays behind. Other scenes from the movie were filmed in Falmouth and they hired as extras people from Seaford Town (German Town) about 2 hours from Negril because they were white Jamaican who didn't look like tourists. Sounds like Moncton-Toronto-MoBay is a pretty good route. Used to be JFK -Mobay or Kingston was a direct flight but now 80% of the flights connect in Miami or Atlanta making the trip trip a very long one.
