Does Sandals Negril really have seven miles of beach?

 

I'm not sure if I read the brochure wrong or what but when I got to Sandal's I was dissapointed to learn that Sandals doesn't have seven miles of beach.  There is seven miles of beach you can walk but it's divided between several other resorts and public beach areas.  I probably read something wrong but just so you know, Sandal's has a large area of beach and there is some law that anyone can walk the beach but you just can't leave the beach if your not staying at the resort.  Alot of the beach is walkable but there are many areas you couldn't unless you brought shoes due to trees and debris in the way.
