***THIS IS A LONG REVIEW*** If you just want the highlights/overview, skip down to the SOME OVERALL GENERAL COMMENTS section near the end. Day 1 – Friday, 6/13/2008 We had a 6am flight via Delta airlines with a stop in Atlanta. We left Atlanta around 8:30am and arrived in Jamaica around 10:30am local Jamaican time. Our flight was the only... more

My Friend and I stayed again at Idle Awhile May 25th-June 1st 2008, and once again the property was amazing! From Check in too Check out Idle Awhile's Staff goes above and beyond than any other resort. We have stayed at over 10 different resorts/Villas in Jamaica, and Idle Awhile surpasses all of them. First I can not say enough... more

I celebrated my 30th birthday with about 20 friends, Idle Awhile was able to accommodate us all and I felt we were all very well treated. I enjoyed an amazing one bedroom ocean view suite. I plan on returning as soon as possible. Highly recommend for groups as location is in the middle of it all and vibe is very... more

Best of the 3 places we stayed in Negril (Sunset at the palms & Charela being the other two). Staff were really friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Security guy is really helpful with the beach chairs and you always felt safe on the beach. Food was great- very good banana pancakes- ate dinner just the once there, but it... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at Idle Awhile for 4 nights in late April. We stayed in a deluxe ocean view room which was very spacious and had all the amenities we needed - king sized bed, large bathroom, in-room safe, in-room refrigerator and large outdoor patio/lanai. The property is surrounded by beautiful green foliage giving the rooms ample privacy.... more

We spent 8 glorius days at Idle Awhile. The rooms are perfectly comfortable and very clean. We loved it here and will most certainly be returning. If there were one thing that I might suggest improving, it would be the breakfast/ lunch menu . Healthier choices, such as yogurts, granolas, lofat muffins and multi grain breads ( not white) for... more

My husband and I stayed at Idle Awhile for 10 days in late November and early December 2007. We had a Deluxe Oceanview Room on the 2nd floor. I absolutely loved everything about this place! Check In was fabulous. We were greeted with a “Welcome Home” and a handshake. Throughout the week, anyone working at the Front Desk was able... more

We just returned from Idle Awhile. We have stayed at several places in Negril, but it was our first time at Idle Awhile. Except in one area, the place was fabulous. Idle Awhile is a 14-room hotel. We had a Deluxe room, their name for a standard one bedroom unit. It was plenty big, well cared for and had a... more
