General Information
What to expect: Cited by the U.K.'s Green Globe for "environmentally sustainable tourism," Sunset at the Palms Resort attracts guests from around the world, drawn by the unusual combination of tranquil garden and lively beach sections, exceptional gardens, "natural" open-air wood-structure ambience, and cabins-on-stilts style. (Children are welcome but the hotel has no special facilities for them.)
Amenity highlights: The garden section across Negril's main road from Bloody Bay includes a freeform pool and a spa tub. Guards stop traffic when guests cross the road to the beach section, which features 75m (82 yds) of fine sand extending 3.25 km (2 mi) around semicircular Bloody Bay, in which the Caribbean Sea remains calm in most weather conditions. This Jamaica resort supplies nonmotorized water-sports equipment. Motorized water sports are available for surcharges. |

Insider tip: Sunsets at Rick's Café 11.5 km (7.25 mi) south of the resort are a Negril tradition. People jump off 15m (50-ft) cliffs into the Caribbean Sea, and a band plays reggae music for dancing.
