We arrived at idleawhile after spending 36 hours on flights and airport connections on 24th April after making bookings with hotel.com. Before leaving Malaysia on 19th April 08, we e-mailed hotel.com to re confirm our bookings. They re confirmed a sea view room with itenary no # 23639791 but on arrival armed with email print outs we were told that... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at Idle Awhile for 4 nights in late April. We stayed in a deluxe ocean view room which was very spacious and had all the amenities we needed - king sized bed, large bathroom, in-room safe, in-room refrigerator and large outdoor patio/lanai. The property is surrounded by beautiful green foliage giving the rooms ample privacy.... more

We spent 8 glorius days at Idle Awhile. The rooms are perfectly comfortable and very clean. We loved it here and will most certainly be returning. If there were one thing that I might suggest improving, it would be the breakfast/ lunch menu . Healthier choices, such as yogurts, granolas, lofat muffins and multi grain breads ( not white) for... more

My husband and I stayed at Idle Awhile for 10 days in late November and early December 2007. We had a Deluxe Oceanview Room on the 2nd floor. I absolutely loved everything about this place! Check In was fabulous. We were greeted with a “Welcome Home” and a handshake. Throughout the week, anyone working at the Front Desk was able... more

We just returned from Idle Awhile. We have stayed at several places in Negril, but it was our first time at Idle Awhile. Except in one area, the place was fabulous. Idle Awhile is a 14-room hotel. We had a Deluxe room, their name for a standard one bedroom unit. It was plenty big, well cared for and had a... more

I stayed at idle awhile for four days and wish I had stayed longer! Everything was wonderful! The staff were so sweet and helpful..many of the staff had been with idle awhile for five plus years, so you know they are loyal to the resort! Anything I asked for they did their best to provide it.. I travelled with two... more

This hotel was perfect. Family friendly, but we didn’t see any kids. Romantic without being obnoxious. Perfect for friends traveling together (which is what we were). We were a group of 7(all in our late 20s) in 2 rooms and could have easily and comfortably slept 3 more. The staff is so kind and accommodating and everything was wonderfully clean... more

I spent several days at Idle Awhile, with 6 friends. We are in our late 20's and we were a little concerned that we were going during spring break... However, the hotel makes certain that the hotel is not overrun by spring breakers. Room - we had two of the suites. One was across the street, but they were both... more

My Best friend and I have been to Jamaica 10++ times. We found this resort to be the perfect location. The staff was so accomadating, and friendly. The Veranda's are so relaxing and peaceful. We could walk to several of our favorite places, Ex: Alfred's, The jungle, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, several stores, and our favortie Jerk stations. The beach was... more

Idle Awhile was such a pleasant surprise. It was spacious and immaculate. The interior design was pretty by any standard with a king platform bed and big terrace with ceiling fan. The room had A/C but it was not needed. I love this part of the beach as it sits in the center of the beach properties. The security was... more
