The resort is contemporary but usually quiet and
refined while tending to cater to the upscale client who enjoys a higher level
of service, dining and vacation options. Nude be ach, pool and hot
tub areas attract most of the laughter. Disco, huge VCR tape collection and
fine dining are nice touches, although the night life can very subdued.

There are few sights to see nearby. The locals are
fun to kid with and be ready to bargain if you find that certain something that
catches your eye. Many escorted tours can be arranged a the resort. There are a
couple of small native craft markets there, one across the street from the
resort.
 Since you are on the far West coast of Jamaica, you might want
to forget going to Montego Bay or Ocho Rios. Why not try Rick's cafe to watch
some cliff diving and catch the sunset. Or better yet have the resort arrange
transportation for you to the "undiscovered" YS Falls. Its about an hour and a
half away, along the mostly deserted, but beautiful, South Coast of the island.
Often you can have the entire falls to yourself and "do what you want to do"
when you get there.

We think being met at the door with fine champagne
and led to a private area for check in are nice touches. The resort is perfect
for those upscale travelers who just want to get away from it all to relax and
be pampered in a refined atmosphere. |

 SuperClubs has recently installed a Sunshine
guarantee. The guarantee says basically you can get a free day for every day of
your vacation that the sun fails to shine. |

The resort can be very quiet at times with no one
seemingly around. Most guests are off at golf, SCUBA diving, at the spa, pools
or beaches. Fine guest mix assures you of a refined experience. |

Manager's specials may be offered at times where
repeat guests enjoy an extra night free. |

Marriage ceremonies are free and can be arranged with
a 2 day residency requirement for both people. Send your documents ahead for
filing before you reach the resort. There is a $150 administrative charge
levied by the local parish to register your marriage certificate. Rate subject

Fall, winter and early spring can be less humid than late
spring and summer. Late spring through summer can be more humid, with daily
rain showers the norm. Of course, late August through early October can be
unstable weather with a hurricane or two skimming around the Caribbean. Prices
are generally higher from December 15 to April 15, with Christmas holidays
rates higher than any time during the year.

Resort has it all except an energetic night life for those
that want it. Some guests visit Hedonism next door for evening energy at the
disco or fun and games during the day. There is usually a charge to
visit.
We also wish that they would change their brochure a bit. While
certainly the resort is beautiful and it is nice to ocassionaly dress for
dinner, Breezes Grand, Negil is NOT near as "stuffy" as the brochure might
suggest.
