Quick Facts
Who is it for: Cliff side is best for adults with family, while the Oceanside is better suited for couples
What’s great about it: The nature-oriented theme throughout the property
To many, the most popular part of Westmoreland is Negril and in particular, the area along the Norman Manley Boulevard where the Seven-Mile beach is located.
If the East End is for the party lovers then, KareemsQuest.com believes that the West End is for the more tranquil- oriented persons. To access this area, take the exit at the roundabout in Negril onto the West End road. Unlike the opposite side, there are more reefs along the coastline, giving it a mature feel. It’s also the best side of the town to watch the sun set, and this adds to the popularity of landmarks such as Rick’s Cafe.

If you drive 15 minutes farther away from the roundabout, you will find another hidden gem, Westender Inn, a family-owned hotel.
The hotel consists of two properties, the garden side, where persons with large families can stay in the cottages, in front of a cliff; and an Ocean side, with rooms that overlook the Caribbean Sea.
Garden side with cottages
KareemsQuest.com observed that the five acres of land on the garden side, with five cottages, is spaciously designed with a well-manicured lawn at the centre for both aesthetics and recreational purposes. Before guests can access the cottages, there is a bar and restaurant at the front with resident hosts. Next to the bar, on an elevated floor, is a Jamaican-shaped pool with a naseberry tree cascading over a small section of the pool deck.
Parts of the gigantic lawn can be used as a play area for children, while the perimeters consist of rich vegetation such as mango and ackee trees. To the back of the property, is a farm that has multiple produce such as sweet pepper, tomato and sorrel, all of which are used in the restaurant.
Oceanside Rooms
This side of the property overlooks the ocean and guests are constantly met by the cool breeze from the Caribbean Sea. KareemsQuest.com also heard the sound of the waves crashing against the reefs that provides a soothing effect in any of the 15 rooms.
This is definitely an ideal spot for couples who want to spend quality time together in a tranquil and nature-oriented environment. The rooms are decorated with logwood throughout, which gives the layout a homely feel. The overall setting feels spacious and the rooms are designed more like a home than a hotel.
