great week!
The rooms at the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites were excellent. Room service can be a bit slow, but all the food we had was very good. The pool and beach were great, with good service at the pool bar. The shows at night were kind of lacking, but the Iberostar companion hotel next door had better ones. We were hoping for a place close by to rent scooters, but were told only Negril has that option. Would have been nice as we like to go exploring on our own when we travel. The 'shopping' that the hotel had daily shuttles for was terrible, but we don't go for that sort of thing anyway. We opted to cross the road and do the tour of the Rose Hall House instead. If you want to shop, I would suggest a trip to Montego Bay. The only planned excursion we did was the tubing trip, and that was pretty nice. Long ride into the mountains for a tube ride through a river in the rain forest. If you plan on eating at the gourmet restaurant, for which reservations are required, be sure and order multiple portions if you're hungry - they are very very very small portions. The jerk chicken bbq's on the beach at lunchtime were excellent! Definitely one of the highlights in the food department.
