Sandals Negril Beach Resort & Spa ReviewOn 5 hectares (12 acres) of prime beachfront land a short drive east of the center of Negril, Sandals Negril is an all-inclusive, couples-only (straight and gay) resort that attracts a basically young, convivial, and unsophisticated audience. It's far more active and freewheeling than the more formal Sandals properties in Ocho Rios and Montego Bay. The casual, well-furnished rooms have a tropical motif, and come in a wide range of styles, but are generally spacious. The best units open directly onto the beach. Honeymooners usually end up in a Jamaican-built four-poster mahogany bed. For a balcony and sea view, you have to pay the top rates. Rates include all meals; snacks; unlimited drinks, day and night, at one of four bars (including two swim-up pool bars); and nightly entertainment, including theme parties. In the typical Sandals style, the food is rather standard, but there is great variety and no one goes hungry. Facilities: 6 restaurants; 5 bars (2 swim-up); 2 outdoor pools; 2 whirlpools; 4 tennis courts; fitness center; spa; sauna; aerobics; basketball; racquetball; shuffleboard; table tennis; volleyball; canoeing; kayaking; scuba diving; snorkeling; Sunfish sailboats; windsurfing; airport transfers; room service; coin-operated laundry; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
