We adored this “rustic” property with its early morning birdsong, simple clean (very clean!) rooms and lovely pool overlooking the ocean. Delicious breakfast poolside or on our terrace. Courteous and kind staff. Highly recommend!

Beware of the General Manager

Solo stay @Idleawhile cliffs property was scary and alarming experience to say the least. This property is beautiful and stunning and happens to have two of the best staff, Sandria and Robert. Both are amazing, I’m thankful for your kindness and care during my stays. The GM is deeply concerning. My stay in rm 5, (I’ve stayed many times prior) I received a serious electric shock while cooking on the stove. The current grabbed my hand and went up my arm and into my mouth. I had to turn off the electric current with my other hand. I tried to call the front desk, the phone was dead. I found Robert the groundskeeper and he notified maintenance and the GM. GM Xavian reached out the next day via non corporate correspondence WhatsApp/phone our conversation went from professional to very unprofessional in minutes with him screaming at me and asking me “what do I expect!” As far as compensation and then turned to him calling/texting via WhatsApp as to not have this officially documented, then offering to comp a night and then two, just to rescind the offer the next day if I don’t meet him face to face. All the while he assured me that the stove was fixed and I went to use the stove again and I was electrocuted again! I was livid and in pain. He stated he would withhold compensation unless I met with him in person. I no longer felt comfortable with him I left the property early and went to a new one. I reported this to hotels.com asap and they have been amazing in their resolve.

I count find that hotel nowhere it doesn't even pop up on the gps I arrived HOURS late and the front entrance don't even look like a hotel they tried to keep telling me that the hotel is "right here" instead of being understanding , I wasn't trying to get charged late fee. The front entrance look like a garage nth like the picture. Their communication could be better.

Super views, lovely accommodation

Fabulous and beautiful. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Villas were amazing. Lovely quiet area, but sometimes some noise nearby (music) and dogs barking in the night. Great pool and bar/restaurant area. But note that it shuts at 7pm and there's not a lot else nearby. Food and drinks were very good.

This was our combined 4th trip to Negril. This property was recommended from a friend because we wanted to stay in on e spot for 2 weeks. This little gem is perfection. There are not enough words to describe how perfect this location and little boutique hotel turned out to be. We have just returned home yesterday and have booked for next March. The grounds are beautiful. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The staff was amazing. The pool was even enjoyable and we are not pool people. Nothing but excellent ratings for this place. You will not be disappointed!!!

Enjoyed my stay . Negatives : The neighbor was playin loud music Saturday 9 at night till ? The mosquitoes had a feast in my room until I asked them housekeeping staff to “kill any you see!” (They sprayed it). Positives: friendly staff including young lady at the desk at night, dining staff, housekeeping, staff, quiet location ( minus sat night) view , pool, ocean swimming off the rocks. Felt like we had the the whole place to ourselves . Price has been adjusted to fit the market.
