  1. my husband is from there and I have been three times since we been married...it's a wonderful place to visit..just be careful of the locals they will try to charge u more for things like souvenirs and taxi rides cause they think u have money to waste...the food is so good and the night life is the best...make sure u have some jerk chicken and a red stripe for me..we stayed at his mom's house but I've been told that the hotels are the best around(negril and Doctors cave)


  2. Montego Bay is beautiful and there's lots for you to do. There's never a dull moment. There are many beaches, great restaurants, upbeat nightlife and so much more. When you get there I'm sure the hotel will arrange tours so you can see alot of things. Bring plenty sunblock and just have some good clean fun.

  3. Best tip I could give is if you take a taxi make sure you and the driver agree on a price before you get in the cab.  My husband and I were in Montego Bay in June and we were charged $20 American dollars for a distance we could have walked.

  4. I'm going next week for the second time.  Its a great place.  if you leave your resort try to leave with a group don't go alone.  I've heard bad things.  Just be smart don't let your guard down.

  5. It's beautiful but very busy compared to other parts of Jamaica.  It's more of the touristy part.  The Reggae Sum Fest is being held there between July 12-20 so there are a lot more people expected to be there than usual...and my husband and I will be one of them.  I am having a hard time trying to find a rental car company since they are all booked for this event so if you plan on being there and renting a car during this time please e-mail me if you would like to share your rental car and we can split the costs... we can also watch each other's back since I hear it can get pretty rough out there...  nitenrs13@yahoo.com

  6. pretty place and the beaches are the best
