What are the Sandals Negril resort staff and people like?

 

The staff and citizens of Jamaica are genuinely interested in you returning to Jamaica and telling some friends.  They know that tourists are their bread and butter and don't act like it's their job to please you.  It makes it easy to relax and unwind from your day to day life.  The bartenders will make you whatever you want and if you want more booze in your drink just ask, they are more than happy to oblige.  They are so good that by the end of my trip if I was talking to another guest and had a 1/4 full glass of stripe, the tender would grab it and produce a refill.  They even had a Red Stripe on the bar if they saw me walking down the path to the piano bar.  The taxi driver we hired took us to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, got an idea from the waitress how long we'd want to stay then returned to pick us up.  He wouldn't take payment until our evening out was complete.  When in town strangers, even beggers will ask how your trip is going and if your enjoying your stay.  Even the drug dealers are courteous.  Someone may ask if your interested in "Smoke".  If you say no they will thank you and won't bother you again.
