Idle Awhile Resort

My trip was very nice. The staff was great. Very clean. Felt safe. Food was good. Id definitely go back. Easy to get transportation. Hotel will assist.

This beachfront property was clean and the staff were welcoming as well as helpful. I would certainly recommend this property.

Such a great property. The greenery and lush trees surround you. Not too big, not too small. Just right. I will definitely "Idle" again.

I enjoy my stay at Idle Awhile. All the staff were nice, great customer service. I would definitely stay there again when visiting Negril. Its walking distance to the parties for Dream Weekend.

Liked the rooms. It wasn't crowded. Staff was nice

Great place for that authentic island vibe! The people are extremely friendly and accommodating. Their recommendations were spot on. The location was within walking distance to shops, the bank, the grocery store and local fresh food. While the food at the resort was yummy, you should also try the places across the street! Would definitely recommend Idle Awhile!

Wonderful staff, beautiful beach, great for swimming, lovely quiet boutique hotel if you don't like large resorts, nice rooms with great balconies, great amenities, can't say enough good things about the staff on and off the beach, safe, 24 hour security guard and lifeguard

We thoroughly enjoyed our 5-night stay at Idle Awhile Beach. This small, boutique resort is directly on the beach, but remains quiet and well maintained. Service and restaurant was great! Just a few steps away from many great food stands and a grocery store. Highly recommended!

The staff were friendly and professional. My wife and I enjoyed our stay immensely! We will be back.

The property was comfortable with great staff, proximity to the beach was also a plus. While we enjoyed the home-like feel of the villas it seems that general maintenence of the property has been lacking. The AC was leaking and looked as though it had been for some time as the paint was bubbling and discoloured. Bathroom tiles were damaged and faucets were leaking.

The villa was very nice and we enjoyed our stay. The staff were extremely nice and very helpful. However, one thing we noticed was the villa was very dark inside. There was no natural light coming through. There was just the kitchen light and a couple of lamps. Going up to the top bunk was ok but coming down was a little scary because of the darkness in the villa. A lamp or light to access would make it easier to come down. I think the lighting needs to be updated. It needs more of the natural light if possible. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This boutique hotel on the calmer part of 7 mile beach is A TREASURE! Our one bedroom suite included a large screened in porch with a dining table and hammock, delightful.  Our room was spacious and high end from the designer floor tiles to the custom wood shutters. Loved it! The staff was attentive, morning coffee and toast delicious and we really enjoyed the SUPs, floatation cushions and the use of the hobbie cat. We will definitely be back!

PROS:-Great location on the beach-Great friendly stuff-Good kitchen/restaurant-They provide access to sister property on the cliffs which was fun to explore CONS:-Allow smoking of cigarettes on the beach chairs for guest which made it very unpleasant for other guests :(RECOMMENDATIONS:-It would help a lot if there was a list of internal hotel phone numbers and food menus in the room -House slippers for the room.Thank you for everything!

A charming place. Colleen at reception is wonderful. The regular rooms are nice and stylish with great terraces (if you're not staying in the 01's where you hear the street noise). The larger rooms are much nicer. The food was very good. It is small...so more chill than lively. The only slight disappointment is no amenities except for 2 paddleboards and one kayak. There's a long empty are next to the walkway ...seems a hot tub, dipping pool...or even a game court would be great.

Idle Awhile was amazing from start to finish! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles from all around. Reception informed us of the covid test options. They have a traveling nurse that can be scheduled to come to your room. Nice and easy. Security was top notch for those that are concerned about that stuff. We had not worries about going for swims, walks or back to the room for all the things that you inevitably forget everyday :) Lifeguards were always on hand and available to help with anything you needed, setting up and moving chairs, helping with fresh towels, etc. The restaurant and bar was staffed by an extremely personable and funny crew. Anything we needed was provided. Bucket of ice, pot of coffee brought to the room, extra towels, etc. Cannot wait to go back!

Idle Awhile, but wish it was Idle-forever :)

Great staff, expecially at the restaurant. The hotel room was dark and could be modernised, but it had a vintage charm, ample space (the meshed patio off the room was a bonus). The room was cleaned well and the property had a canopy of trees that was pleasant to experienced while it rained. The beach was amazing and beach chair pads double as floating devices, which was perfect for relaxing. Overall, it was a great stay.

Amazing as always. Been staying here since 2014 here and there when i travel to Jamaica. Always a pleasure. Staff is very accommodating. We extended our stay with no problem. Everything always nice at Idle Awhile from the front desk, bartender (hi Claudia) to the beach staff. Love it here. We will be back and alway recommend.

I loved this hotel! We stayed in one of the ocean view rooms and it was so nice being able to wake up and see the ocean and then walk straight to it on the path from the room. The food and drinks were all really good. The room itself was nice and there were even three friendly kitties who visited us on our patio every day. The only downside is that you can hear every little noise outside because there aren’t glass windows, just wooden shutters. I would still stay at the hotel again but I would definitely bring earplugs the next time because it made for several sleepless nights due to noise.
