Idle awhile was perfect. Rooms clean, spacious and had a secure safe. The grounds were beautiful and the beach perfect to just idle awhile. Everyday my husband and I enjoyed fresh lobster cooked to perfection from a guy walking along the beach selling them for only $10!!!!!! We also loved the push cart a restaurant that sits on the cliffs... more

Had a wonderful wedding at Idle last year and we are planning a return trip shortly. Honestly, Idle is the best! Staff is wonderful and you can't beat the price. Truely a beautiful little spot. Believe the hype! more

Once again, we had a fabulous week at Idle Awhile, our third time there, and we are booked for Jan 2010 as well. The staff here is the best, as I have said before, they treat you like family. I had to get a birthday cake for my hubby's birthday while we were there. Things are done differently in Jamaica,... more

First of all...Thank you King, Sonya, Collin and (I forgot his name...sorry) the young man that set up the beach chair for the guest. You guys were wonderful. When my husband & I were planning to go to Jamaica to celebrate our 16th weddining anniverasy we had so many choices of places to stay. However, once I came across Idle... more

We loved Idle Awhile! The staff was superb, the beach is glorious, the food is good and the rooms are really beautiful. When we left they told us to remember they will be there to work and look after our home and to return soon. And we truly felt this was home! One note: we went during the week of... more

We spent four nights at this beautiful little resort and we loved it. The room (a junior suite) had a king size bed a nice little kitchen and a nice size screened veranda. Even though we were in the unit right behind the front desk, there was no noise or problem. Our only complaint (though minor) was that the bathroom... more

The Idle Awhile resort is very true to its name and provides a perfect setting for those wishing a few lazy days spent on the beach, sampling all the great food nearby. We were booked for three nights in a standard ocean view room on the second floor. The drive from the Montego Bay airport to the hotel is scenic... more

When we arrived in the lobby of Idle Awhile, the gentleman at the front desk told us “welcome home.” For me, that encapsulates the vibe at this spectacular beach hotel. Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived so we were directed to the beach, where complimentary drinks and beach chairs awaited. Soon we were taken to our room, which was... more

Overall, I would say that this hotel is beautiful and a great value. My boyfriend and I stayed in a standard room here for our first 3 days in Negril, and we agreed that we enjoyed this hotel a lot more than our second hotel (which was the Rockhouse). The beach was GORGEOUS. There are a lot of husters on... more
