"Sandals Negril is an all-inclusive, couples-only (straight and gay) resort that attracts a basically young, convivial, and unsophisticated audience."

"At the north end of the beach, near the Grand Lido, this hotel lies on the best beach of any Sandals in Jamaica (the sands at the Sandals in Whitehouse are a possible contender)."

"This resort may come of as a bit dated in comparison to Breezes, Sandals and the pair of Couples hotels on the beach, but it has a bit more elegance than its sibling Riu Tropical Bay."
