Couples Swept Away and Couples Negril in Jamaica and Rick's Cafe
Jamaica has three distinct areas to explore and last month we discovered so much more to see and do even after having been to Jamaica nine times before. If you get a chance to see Negril, Jamaica be sure you go to Ricks Cafe for a drink to watch the sunset and cliff divers. It is an awesome sight and one that you shouldn't miss. If you go by catamaran, you will be able to see the caves and Rock House as well as the castles that I didn't even know existed in Jamaica. Some of these are Negril resorts but from the water it is an incredible sight. We snorkeled in the caves from a catamaran excursion and it was truly amazing. Getting off the catamaran at Ricks Cafe gives you a view of the entire area that is not available to see except from the water. Ricks had a great raggae band and the sunset was gorgeous. Watching the cliff divers or jumping or diving from the smaller cliffs is also an option. There is a little pool and all in all Ricks is just a fun and beautiful, amazing place to see. I won't miss it any time I go back to Jamaica.
Couples Swept Away and Couples Negril is where the catamaran left from. Both properties have very nice beaches and we found the food to be excellent. Some of the rooms at Couples Swept Away were somewhat worn and needed to be redone so if you decide to go to a Couples resort be sure you call so I can explain which rooms to stay in and which ones to be sure not to. They each have two pools but Couples Swept Away's are small but active and fun with a swim up pool bar.
