Firefly is a lovely, family run establishment. It is located in a prime location on 7 mile beach - almost anything is within walking distance. We stayed in one of the "Secrets Cabins" and were very happy. It was one room with electricity, bed, desk and tables - Really, what more do you need in Jamaica? It was very clean,... More

Thanks for your review; Firefly Beach Cottages and Secrets Cabins share the same beach, the same staff and the same beach bar. The guests actually stayed in a Secrets Cabin (not a Firefly Cottage) so the review should really be for Secrets. The difference is in the accommodation. Secrets Cabins are shown on TripAdvisor under "Negril Bed & Breakfast" and... More

With seven in our party for our 25th wedding anniversary vacation, affordable lodging options were limited. I'm so pleased to have found the Firefly and will not hesitate to return on future visits to Negril. With three teenagers in our group, we were a little hesitant about the nudity, but the price won us over. We quickly discovered that nudity,... More

I stayed from Jan. 29-Feb. 8th 2013 and enjoyed every minute. I always went to mexico, every year. I will always return to Firefly every year from now on. I've never felt so at home or safe as i did at Firefly. They are all so welcoming. Made many new friends that return at the same time every year, i... More

My husband and I went to Negril for a 25th anniversary escape. We had a fantastic visit. We spent two nights at Firefly. Our accommodations were clean, comfortable and fit our needs. However, though we knew it was a "nudity accepted" establishment, we really were uncomfortable with the non-stop nudity. The other guests were not reserved about their nudity and... More

Booking: My wife and I and our three children (aged 12, 10 and 7) stayed at Firefly from 08/02 to 15/02 2013. We checked pricing etc on Firefly's website and booked our stay direct with Firefly rather than through a booking agent. The booking process was managed professionally and efficiently and Firefly kindly organised our airport transfers, booked us a... More

Just spent a week at Firefly, and had the most wonderful time. If you go, make sure you set your expectations - this is a basic property, run by fantastic, friendly staff but IS NOT a resort-type place. We stayed in apartment 12 on the first floor, which has a bathroom, kitchen/dining area and then a small outside patio leading... More

Thanks for the kind review and for being guests of Firefly. I'm sorry about the low water pressure that has affected Negril. For several years the mains pressure has been so good that our reserve tanks and pump were not required. Then, about 3 weeks ago, pressure dropped each night at about 9.45 so we had to use our pump.... More

Friendly personnel, very cooperative, polite. Wonderful vacation!!! 100- foot wide beach, relaxed atmosphere, not noisy at the restaurant next door at all. Textiles walk by on the beach are somewhat surprised at the nude facility they're walking through, but they keep walking by and are not too disturbed in the end. Get naked or dress partially; it's great! Housekeepers and... More

We just got back from a one-week stay at the Firefly, staying in one of the little rustic cabins there. The staff is very friendly and efficient, Firefly is centrally located on the 7-Mile Beach giving you plenty of opportunities to walk north and south from here. This place is "clothing optional" only at the beach/sea itself, the jacuzzi, and... More

Stayed at the firefly in 2010. Negril is beautiful- Went with my sister. We decided to not go the "all inclusive" route and really "experience the island." The best part of the trip was the food.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Top class suites, penthouses and studios in the best part of Negril Beach. The gardens are beautiful year round. Our wonderful guests are beach lovers who also enjoy the ambiance, the serenity, the casual yet efficient feeling, the weekly beach party and the beachfront rooms which are surprisingly rare on Negril beach. ALL units have kitchens and verandas. Gym, WiFi and Jacuzzi are here. All our romantic rooms have kitchens or kitchenettes allowing greater choice of dining and drinks than mere hotel rooms. Our beach bar/cafe, with Maxine in charge, is well-known for the luscious pancakes and other breakfast items and day-long snacks along with the coldest beer served with the warmest smiles to our guests and other visitors on the beach.Our guests come from many countries, at times they are from as many as nine countries represented at our free weekly beach parties. What they return for is the casual, friendly atmosphere, no-one knows whether you're rich or poor, no-one wears a Rolex, and you go to the beachfront in your bikini or swimsuit - no need for any other cover unless you wish.We have watchmen and security cameras at night just to make sure you're OK.There are many cafes, restaurants and bars within easy walking distance on the beach and all water-sports are close by. Reggae concerts (Bourbon Beach, Roots Bamboo) are 10 to 15 minutes walk away on the beach and Kool Runnings Water Park is 2 miles away across the road.Shopping for gifts and souvenirs is available at Time Square one mile away and supermarkets are 2 miles away, in town. Also each year our team wins in the Negril Marathon/half/10k early December. This year in the full Marathon we had the 2nd overall and the first in the over 80 age group (Roy Thomas from Kingston who runs the Marathon here every year). We also had other section winners.
