After honeymooning at Sandals, we tried a cheaper AI in Negril and found ourselves spending most of time eating other places and out and about. We went non-AI a few trips ago and for us it works out cheaper since we like to get out. Our big expense is massages which you would pay for whether you are AI or not. We've found the beach masseuses to be just as good and much cheaper than the spas at the AIs.
