The people are so friendly there. And... More

I have stayed at Roots Bamboo 4 times and have enjoyed every single time !! I always recomend Roots to people traveling to Negril.. It definately has no frills, the first time I stayed they didn't have a bar or pool table, but have always had great food, especially breakfast !!
