- I tried to send this message to someone from Canada, asking about
- Jamaica Jamaica and F.D. Resort. It bounced so I am broadcasting it
- in hopes of reaching him.
-
-
- F.D Resort is a family resort. Suites with personnal maid to do all
- cooking, shopping, laundry and cleaning. You can have her cook or you
- can eat in the resturant. It has almost no beach, and crowded/small
- grounds. They have child care facilities during the day so you can
- forget about the kids while you play. It is geared to the family with
- small children.
-
- Jamaica Jamaica, Next door to F.D. Resort. Adults 16 and older
- only. Large open grounds with beautiful landscaping (27 acres).
- Large beach area in both width and depth. It has a nude beach, on the
- FDR side, and a secluded nude hot tub. A very large main swimming
- pool and a lap pool in the lobby next to the gym. Another secluded
- hot tub in a garden. Two resturants, four bars. All watersports,
- tennis(4 courts I think), aerobic classes, green fees, golf school and
- buggy rides as well as food, drinks and smokes are included in the
- price.
-
- Both places have a disco and live entertainment nightly.
-
- Both airports Montego Bay and Kingston are international but you
- really want Sangster in Mo Bay.
-
- I stayed at J2 and visited FDR. It really depends on what you are
- looking for in a resort. I have stayed at 8 different resorts in my 9
- trips to Jamaica. I can not imagine a travel agent not knowing about
- either. Tell them to look it up in "The Caribbean Gold Book" under
- Runaway Bay. Jamaica has many more resorts each with different
- personalities. If you want more info either call me at 214-516-6246
- or give me you telephone # and I will give you a call. Do not fly in
- and then think you will get a place to stay. You will not make it
- past Customs.

-
- Look at Hedonism II in Negril it is a party from the time you arrive
- and continues until you leave. I plan to go back here in May.
-
- The most luxurious of all the resorts is the Grand Lido. I have been
- here twice. Fantastic. Winter rates $575 per couple per night.
-
- I could go on and on and on..........
