Negril...Im sure its no loger there or names changed etc etc..but
wouldlike to find it..for a visit or just to see it..I cant remember the
name at all..its been a while...anyone familar with Negril from 25 or so
years ago...might name a few places that come to mind and I might be
able to recall..

Could it be Hedoism II (Adults Only) Resort? This was a place where we
went a while ago, all inclusive.

I'm sure that Jamaica has a tourism web site with hotel listings. I
should think that would be the easiest way to located your hotel.

You might consider also contacting a Jamaican Vacation Real Estate
Agent or a local Travel Agent. Either one if they have been in
business long enough might be able to tell you "whatever happened to".

Also referring back to Jamaican Tourism website, many such sites
include B&B in their listings plus a representational photo of each. By
browsing B&B photos for those in Negril you might recognize the place
you stayed at. I've done it for a B&B in Dominica. I found a place
where I stayed 35 years ago. It had a different name, different owner
but the location and "face" of the B&B was the same.

that can be hard.

the Cozumel of MY youth was a friend of my father's fishing camp...

you got there by boat.

it's changed a little.

in Zihuatenejo (zp? z-wat)

there were 2 hotels on the bay...

1 up on the cliffs and 1 (thatched huts) on the beach.

we had electricity 2-3 days a week.

it's all high rises now.

alas...
