I adore Jamaica and who wouldn't. If people tell you not to leave your complex then I suggest you laugh in their face. We stayed at a 5 star complex in a remote area where the cattle roamed the streets and the locals sat along the roadside under their oil filled street lights. There was one shack of a bar across the road, a small local shop and a jerk chicken takeaway. The nearest towns were a bus or taxi ride away.
We hired a taxi for the 2 weeks (at a cost of £5 per week) for the fantastic sight seeing and spent our evenings in the bar over the road with the locals. They are the most friendliest adorable people.
Unfortunately, we didn't finish our exploring as we were hit by a hurricane and even though the people lost everything but we became their first priority. Why travel such a distance to a fantastic country to stay in one place the entire time?
