Anyone stayed at the Beachcomber Club this year?

Have you tried Expedia, Orbitz, or Travelocity? Or how about Onestop switching your hotels during your visit? Since you are traveling over Christmas/New Year you may want to book Beachcomber Club while it's still available. The TA pics look nice and the recent reviews are fairly good. Great location also.

i walked through and looked at a couple of suites . . . great location, appeared pretty empty . . . dated but fine . . . the beach location is the trump card for this property.

Shields is booked as is Bar-B-Barn. Thanks for everyone's input.

We were in Negril last week and walked through this property twice to go to the "Strawberries" gift shop on site. It looked like a nice property. Rooms looked really big. They were also doing some maintenance on some rooms when we were there last week. There was a big crab on the first step going into the pool both times we were on the property. Sorry I don't have any knowledge regarding staying there but looked nice enough on our couple of walk-throughs.

A FYI if you do stay there.......A guy on the beach took us to the Strawberries gift shop and we were charged $6 for a pack of cigs and we went back a couple of days later on our own and the guy working at the gift shop tried to charge us $9 a pack. I told him we were just there a couple of days ago and paid $6 so he gave them to us for that.

Thanks, luvmylabs, for the info.

Mi Lady and I are currently homeless for the holidays and are attempting to locate a room on the beach and apparently the Beachcomber is one of the few resorts that still has a reasonably priced room available for our dates.

We would appreciate any input that you can give us if you have stayed there this year, how your reach was, would you go back, if so why, if not why, etc..

Thanks,

WM

We just returned home from a one week stay at the BCC. We have stayed there many times over the decades and never had any complaints. We like the location right on the beach. We plan on going back to Negril as soon as possible and will return to the BCC.

HTH.

Yellowbird is available for 72 per night, total. For that time period beginning before xmas and ending after new years, that's a good deal.

Has anyone ever done the AI option at BCC. I woudn't normally consider it but the price I am being offered makes it appealing even if we onlt eat there half a dozen times in 2 weeks.

I have not but we thought the room service was good. I would like to add that the rooms were nice. I did see a bad review and hadn't been to Jamaica for several years so I was curious what anyone would have to complain about and went ahead and booked anyway. I didn't see the crab this time but he lived there before and was always very friendly. I can't see any reason why not to book AI if that's what you like. I am to independent and like to do things with a private driver.

Good luck.
