I've been to Jamaica, and I endorse what OTP had to say. Most of the country is pretty depressed and crime rates are pretty high - I felt safer leaving there and walking the streets of NYC at night than I did in Kingston. The restorts at Mo bay (Montego), Negrile, and Ocha Rios are safe though, and extremely good, but you can't help feeling that you are amongst a conclave of "haves" surrounded by the "have nots".

I talk often to people from that part of the world, and this very topic (whereto holiday in the carribean) came up only last night over dinner. We are currently doing a technical audit in OZ with 2 people each from the Jamaica and Surinam plants, and one from St Croix, - they suggested that the better places were Barbados, Curacao, or St Kitts and Nevis.
