Beachfront hotel on Seven Mile Beach in Negril, operated by the same family since 1971
Amenities
The property has a private beach area with a sun terrace and a bar and grill offering ocean views. Two outdoor pools are available, one on the garden side with loungers, and the beachside pool is surrounded by loungers for relaxation. A game room with ping pong and a pool table provides additional leisure options, along with complimentary WiFi covering the entire property.
Rooms
Accommodations range from standard hotel rooms to self-catering one-bedroom apartments, all with private bathrooms and air conditioning. The garden-side rooms are larger than the beachside rooms and are located across the road from the beach, with a security guard to assist with crossing. Beachside rooms place guests steps from the sand, and all rooms include a mini-fridge and ceiling fan.
Location
The hotel sits directly on the famous Seven Mile Beach in Negril, with easy walking distance to Hi-Lo supermarket, Margaritaville, and several local restaurants. Guests can reach the Royal Palm Reserve, Bloody Bay Beach, and the cliffs of the West End by short taxi ride. The property is 48 km from Montego Bay, and an airport shuttle service is available for arrival and departure transfers.
Dining
The on-site restaurant Indies 957 serves authentic Jamaican cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with dishes like jerk chicken, escovitch fish, and lobster thermidor. The bar offers daily two-for-one drink specials and a selection of cocktails, including the popular Bob Marley icy drink. A patty man visits the beach regularly, offering local pastries, and guests can also walk to nearby eateries such as Marley's and Catch A Falling Star.
Family & Entertainment
The resort is family-friendly, with a pool on the garden side that is never crowded and a game room with ping pong, pool table, and corn hole. Children are welcomed by staff who help with beach chairs and umbrellas, and security guards are present on both sides of the property and on the beach. The hotel has been owned and operated by the same family since 1971, contributing to a consistent and welcoming environment that attracts many repeat guests.
“This family-operated property on Negril's famed Seven Mile Beach struck me as particularly well-suited to travelers seeking an authentic, relaxed Jamaican experience. What stands out is its commitment to fostering a familial atmosphere, supported by features like the game room and accessible beachfront bar and grill. I think this is a solid choice for those who value community engagement alongside classic beachside leisure.”
