Sandals Negril
Jamaica · Negril · 70 min from MBJ
If the brief is “best beach in Jamaica,” start here. Negril is more barefoot than Montego Bay or Ochi. The transfer is longer, so it is a better fit for 6+ nights than a Thursday–Sunday dash.
Why people pick it
- · Seven Mile Beach — among the best swimming beaches in the brand
- · Sunset-facing west coast
- · Beaches Negril is next door if you ever split a family/couples trip
