Getting around
We are located in the heart of the tourist strip so a car is not necessary for short stays. However, we do offer free parking if you have a car. There are plenty taxi's at the airport and they normally will accept $15 USD for transportation to The Irie Inn. If you decide to travel to other cities, I would recommend the Knutsford Express bus. They provide inexpensive transport across the island with Wi-Fi.

The pros of this property are :it is centrally located, excursions come to the front to pick up, a beautiful beach is close by. Walking distance for most need. The cons are: it is very noisy at night due to a club close by. I wear ear plugs at night to sleep. Not enough hot water when we shower at night. Two out of four of us got the comfy shower. Then, hot water gradually runs off. No toiletry such as travel size shampoo, conditioner, soap were provided. Need to request even for blanket and comforter.

Unexpected pleasure
I didn’t know what to expect really. Booked a room based on reviews and web info. Felt it could be an adventure anyway, and it was a stop for our Negril visit. A real pleasure was having our host upgrade our room. A thoughtful gesture and much appreciated. The location is everything there on the hip strip. Pauline was lovely and helpful, and so was our host whom we had the pleasure of meeting. I liked the rustic feel. And ongoing renovations would only make it a desirable accommodation. Thank you, guys.

Authentic stay
Pauline is an amazing host, as are the others at the Irie Inn. This was great for us as we enjoy immersing ourselves into the local scene. If you want to meet the locals and actually experience the area, you won’t be disappointed.

Awesome Stay
Property was pretty true to listing, although there was no lamp on the bedside table. Would recommend better hangers in the closet and drawer liners in the drawers. It wasn't luxurious but clean and Pauline was very helpful, even with uninvited creatures :). Location is great! Felt pretty safe even with being approached often by people who hang out by the bar. Warm water was tepid, not very hot but not too cold. Bar was very noisy but we were warned about that. Ear plugs help. Noisy bird in nearby tree chirped for hours starting at sunset. We had room 5, closest to the tree. Would recommend.
