Just my observations...Vinnie's is very good. White Sands has great breakfasts. The motor bikes & most vehicles were driving way toooo fast on the beach and cliff road!!! The crowds at Roots Bamboo music nights were half young Jamaican boys/men selling weed, and lots of workin' girls. The word "no" means nothing. Hustlers very aggressive.... Hardly ever seen law enforcement. Just my thoughts...the ocean is amazing.

I don't like walking past Roots. I find them to be the most aggressive people on the beach. I never cared for it as my husband was almost robbed there many years ago (thankfully just almost) but this year & last time 2 years ago they seemed even more aggressive. No one else on the beach bothers me. If we say "no thank you" most are fine with it.

Ugh, not good to hear. I miss Bourbon Beach sooooo much. Where is your "go to" place now on the beach?

Well Alfreds is still pretty laid back when they have a band (I rarely get hassled/hustled there), Woodstock on thurs is pretty good with their outdoor concert and since Rudy moved to the Yard Beach House, I like it there as well...

My 'after dinner' warm up bar is usually Tony's Hut...

I still haven't given up on Roots yet either (I went back a couple of nights later and had a good laugh with a group of the wrk'n girls, talking about it, because even they realized it was ridiculous)..

Thanks for the recs, it's been 4 years since we have made it back to Negril and we don't want to waste our time with places that have since been ruined.

Over the years, I have had some interesting and funny chats with the girls after they accepted the fact that I wasn't going to be a sale.

I actually kept count one night, sitting at Roots bar while the band played and had 16 wrk'n girls approach. Near the end I'd greet them with 'Hello Mz 14' or Mz 15... etc. LOL
