Frommer's Review
This is one of the best beachside hotels in Negril -- conscious of both sports and relaxation. All-inclusive, it caters to those eager for an ambience of all possible diversions available but absolutely no organized schedule and no pressure to participate if you just want to relax. Unlike the Couples Negril (above), this resort allows same-sex couples. As a staff member told us (privately, of course), "We get the health-and-fitness nuts, and Sandals or Hedonism get the sex crazed." The resort occupies 8 flat and sandy hectares (20 acres), which straddle both sides of the highway leading in from Montego Bay.
The accommodations (the hotel calls them "veranda suites" because of their large balconies) are in 26 two-story villas clustered together and accented with flowering shrubs and vines, a few steps from Seven Mile Beach. Each lovely, airy, and spacious unit has a ceiling fan, a king-size bed, and (unless the vegetation obscures it) sea views. Wooden shutters let sunlight and breezes in.
Facilities: 3 restaurants; 4 bars; 2 outdoor pools; 10 tennis courts; health club; racquetball; squash; spa; 2 Jacuzzis; sauna; glass-bottom boat trips; sailing; scuba diving; sea kayaks; snorkeling; water-skiing; windsurfing; bikes; tour desk; airport transfers; room service; laundry service.
