San San Beach is a few minutes' walk away, and Blue Hole, just around the corner, with Winnifred Beach also within a five minute's drive. The rooms are situated facing the pool, and a restaurant at the property serves meals to order poolside. 

Cliff Cottage (US$250 nightly for larger cottage, US$350 for both units) is tucked away on Negril's West End. The clifftop property has a central kitchen and common area with natural wood furnishings and an enormous fan suspended above a billiards table.

Both units have AC and fans.

Di Dragon (2-10pm Mon.-Thurs., 2-11pm Fri./Sat., 2-9pm Sun., US$15-25/lb., or around US$60 for a modest meal for two) is an informal backyard Chinese food restaurant specialized in seafood dishes.
