Rent a Villa for Less than a Hotel - 2b, 3ba, Full Living & Kitchen - Ocean View

Just got back from my second trip to the Beach House Villas in Negril. We had so much fun last year that we just had to return. We stayed in the Beach House/second floor but we really didn't spend very much time in the unit. The beds are extremely comfortable and so is the futon in the living room so 5 of us were very comfortable. The view is sensational too. The kitchen is a good size and as much as we thought we would use it, we really didn't but the fridge was a bonus because we kept it stocked with cold Red Stripes (in an effort to keep the bar bill manageable). It also held some leftovers that we heated in the microwave. The staff makes this place that much more enjoyable. Lloyd is not only a great mixologist, he is becoming like a second son! Clive is a piece of work behind the bar too. Mark cooked us a special feast on the last night that we were there and it was a meal that we will not soon forget. Buju made sure that our beach chairs were ready to go every morning and also kept the place spotless. Mike did an excellent job of keeping the unwanted hagglers away. Rose managed to sneak in, clean our room and sneak out without us hardly ever seeing her. I think that the thing that we like most about the BHV's was hanging out with the other guests around the bar. We met some great people last year and some of them were there again this year along with some new faces. This place is the perfect size, not too big and not too small. We were all like one big happy family by the end of the week. The location is great because you can walk up and down the beach and discover interesting places to eat and drink. The thought of an all inclusive does not apeal to me in the least! That would be so boring and unadventuresome. We also spent a day at the cliffs this year (at Xtabi). We had lunch and then spent the afternoon jumping off of the cliffs there and had a blast. It is a relatively cheep cab ride to the cliffs and worth visiting a few times for meals too. The cliffs are a nice place to visit but the excitement of the beach scene is why I prefer to spend most of my time there. Sadly, we will not be back next year but hope to return in 2013. The amount of people that return to this place year after year speaks volumes.

Beach House Villas is our "Home Away From Home". From the moment my family and I arrived and were led into the Penthouse of the Beach House Villa we marvelled at the view. We've stayed here many times but it always makes you wonder for a moment if it's real.
We spent a few amazing weeks here! The views are easily the best in Negril! Our friends were also on vacation in Negril on the same dates as us and stayed at an all inclusive but every morning 9am without fail they arrived at our hotel and stayed all day. They even extended their stay by a few days and spent the last couple of nights at Beach House in a Garden House Studio. Needless to say, they loved it!
I would recommend staying here for the novice and expert traveler alike. Having a full kitchen, living and dining area separate from your bedroom is ideal and BHV has done it right!

My wife and I enjoyed nearly a month at one of the best private villas in Negril. Beach House Villas located famously along Seven-Mile Beach boasts of many exquisite suites to choose from. We stayed at the Garden House Studio #2 which features a nice kitchen, living area and full bathroom. Some nice upgrades made the little time spent indoors extremely enjoyable. Recommend this affordable accomodation vice the all-inclusives we previously stayed in. Also recommend a trip to the Mayfield Falls and day trips to Sav-La-Mar and Lucea for some real local color...but more for the adventurous types. The excellent staff rounded out the experience with their assistance. Buju and the security staff are wonderful sources of the "real deal" information. Great time!
