Last week i spent 1 week at RIU Ocho Rios. I would rank it among the best vacation I have ever had....!!!
Maybe a big part of the enjoyment was because I had a rental for the duration.
The guests at these All Inclusives--are herded on busses to different excursion points. They miss the real Jamaica in-between trips.
Places like the cockpit(?) country would leave lasting impressions on most visitors. I am awed by the views on every visit.
One major drawback in having non-all-inclusive tourism is: the roads lack proper directional signs. The assumption appears to be that all road users should know where they are going.
Three examples:
Roads leading to the interior of jamaica are very poor. One man commented that most of the jamaican leaders 'need to be chopped up and fed to hogs!!!'
Additionally, a stronger police crack-down on the dare-devil drivers and driving is needed!!!
If these basic requirements are not put in place--the All Inclusives will always carry de swing.

Three examples:
- I always read about the new multi-purpose stadium in Falmouth. Apart from the sign on the main road--there are no noticable ones to direct you to the location (after you make the turn). I drove pass the stadium for about a mile.
- same is true when i tried to visit the martha brae for some rafting. had to ask for directions...
- same is true when we when horse back riding in Seville(?). Finding the ticket office for Hooves in St. Anns Bay was a nightmare....
