We were there 04/24 to 05/01. We had a restful and good time. The weather was perfect, 80's with the lowest humidity I can ever remember in Jamaica. Good breezes and only a short overnight shower one night. The cruise ships were on a Wed, Thur and Sun schedule with Oasis on the Wed and Sun schedule. There is a new little beach area built by Royal Caribbean called Red Stripe beach that screws up the nude walks on the three port days. It's about halfway between N and the end of the beach. Everything else was as usual, good Jamaican food from Jeffery the chef. There were about 15 couples there during the week with a few leaving and arriving each day.

There were two American business men there representing a Dallas gentlemen who supposedly has bought N Resort, Time and Place, 6 acres across the street and is building a house a few miles away. Just talking to them they don't seem well funded, they commented that they are not millionaires and have mortgaged everything to do it. This can't be good for N's future. They were asking the guest what improvements were needed and whether nudist and Lifestyle people could co-exist. They plan to build 40 rooms at Time and Place and open a sports oriented resort targeted at young athletic people.

I wish them the best, only time will tell how this plays out. Irie Mon.

Sigh, another one may soon bite the dust...

Is Red stripe beach half-way between N and the cruise ship port? On days when ships were not in port were there any people on the beach?

Thanks,

We were there in December. I would put it about 1/3 of the way to the port. When a ship was in, it was very busy and people were walking up and down the beach as far as the port. On days when the ship was not it, it was pretty much abandoned. We didn't see anyone on the beach on those days. You have to cross the property and there is a guard, but he is used to people. We wore sarongs rather than going completely nude. We did walk it when the ship was in (not knowing) and nobody made a big deal. Though we had sarongs, they did not leave much to the imagination.

FYI, Forgot to mention the sale price was said to be 18 million. I think that was for N Resort, Time & Place and 6 acres across the street.

sports resort targeted at young athletic people.??

many from the US where I live, lift beer or mixed drinks.
and the braco hobie cat always seemed broken for one reason or another. I called it beach art.

Latest report states it has NOT been sold.
