Seasplash Resort (US$96/146 low/high season) is a large concrete structure with little to distinguish it from many other similar hotels that crowd Seven-Mile Beach. The suites are nonetheless spacious, clean, and well appointed with complete amenities. It's also home to Norma's on the Beach.
Khus Khus Negril is an affordable option that puts comfort first--with an appreciable departure from the floral bed covers so typical of run-of-the-mill hotels across Jamaica. Blue Mountain Aromatics toiletries, iPod docking stations, and complimentary Wi-Fi complement the soothing linens to make Khus Khus a pleasurable retreat.
Xtabi is one of the most accommodating properties in Negril in terms of the price range for the rooms on offer and value for your money. From economy rooms (US$49/65 low/high season) with fans to spacious suites (US$59/90 low/high season) with air-conditioning and TV to stylish cliff-top cottages (US$120/210 low/high season), there is something for every budget. The restaurant and bar, also on the cliffs, serve up some of the best lobster (US$25) in Negril, and the conch burger is highly acclaimed.
Prim-Rose Inn is a real shoestring joint run by Gasnel Hylton. It has five basic rooms featuring fans, hot water, and hammocks on a porch. The inn is set back on the bush side of West End Road. The driveway is marked by a sign for Haciender Inn; Prim-Rose is about 100 meters from the main road on the left.
Negril Escape and Spa offers a variety of themed accommodations: the Oriental Express, Passage to India, Romancing the Kasba, Back to Africa, Atlantis, Negril Cottage, and Coconut Grove. Some of these are more tasteful than others, but the fact that a variety of options are offered is well appreciated by its returning guests, who found the recent renovations a welcome infusion of color. Rooms come with all the basic amenities including hot water, air-conditioning, cable TV, clean sheets and towels, and Internet in the main office.
Catch a Falling Star (US$95-175 low season, US$120-250 high season) has five one-bedroom cottages, two two-bedroom cottages, and a recently completed thatch-roofed building on the cliffs with six units. Its cliff-top grounds are well maintained with neat walkways and verdant gardens, this is one of the choice properties on the West End.
Banana's Garden (US$85-135 low season, US$100-165 high season), owned and operated by Nicole Larson, is a tasteful retreat with five quaint, self-contained cottages surrounded by lush vegetation. Each cottage has unique, hand-carved wood trim detailing, ceiling fans, louvered windows, hot water, and kitchenettes, making the property ideal for those looking for independence and the modest, back-to-basics vibe that put Negril on the map. The pool is beautiful.
Negril Tree House Resort (US$100\200 low, US$145\340 high season) has reasonable rates that vary depending on the size of the room and the view out the window (garden or sea). Manager Gail Jackson and her husband Jimmy Jackson had the first two buildings built in 1982 and have expanded the property successively to its current 70 units. Most rooms have king-size beds or two twins. Wireless Internet is available in the lobby and beach areas. There is also a water sports shop on the property.
Country Country (US$140-155 low season, US$170-190 high season) has 17 cottages on the beach side of Norman Manley Boulevard, and three self-contained apartments on the morass side. Built in 2000, the cottages are well laid out in a lush garden setting that promotes quiet and privacy. Rooms have the same amenities throughout, namely air-conditioning, flat panel TVs with cable, spacious private baths with hot water, and porches. The superior and premium categories relate to the proximity to the beach.
The Palms Resort (US$113/120 low/high season) previously Paradise View, has been undergoing a process of complete transformation under the new ownership of the Nelson family. Wooden furniture, louvered windows, and sleek styling throughout have added a modern, classy mood to the once-tired complex. Kristyl's restaurant on the beach is set poolside on a wooden deck with plush furniture. Wireless Internet reaches the rooms and pool/bar area, and guests are provided a computer in the office.
