A group of us stayed at Lazy Dayz in Negril. The location is the best and the property overall is really cute. The cost of the rooms, however, were terribly overpriced. I paid $110 for a room with a shared bathroom, no light! Imagine being that close to the beach and living in a dark, dingy room for that price! The place does have some nice rooms for a hefty price though. The tree house cabins, yellow mellow and the sea view room are the only good ones. Avoid the other rooms, they are expensive and not worth the money!

The location overall was spectacular, and the maids and caretaker are wonderful.

We stayed here twice. The first visit wasn't too bad, it was only my spouse and I at this time. The second vist, this past january, was the worst experience of my life! My spouse,myself, and my 10 month old daughter stayed at lazy dayz for about four days before we were robbed of all our valuables during the night while we slept. At first, I couldn't believe this had happened, it seemed surreal. As we tried to piece it all together, we were informed by another guest that the second entrance to our rental unit did not have working locks.Apparently what had happened was that another guest had brought a hooker back from the local bar, she than was able to give her friends, pimp whomever access to the property.As they snooped around they must have stumbled upon our locked...i mean unlocked door (thanks to the owners carelessness). Long story cut kinda short - the owners of this place were aware of recent robberies that had taken place (on their property as well as others) and they did not share this info with us...did I mention my very young daughter was with us....freakin' scary.They were not the least bit compassionite to our situation, that was probably the most disappointing part. Sorry to say that I would not recommend this particular place to anyone. The location itself is nice, just be very careful, and if you are going to bring any sort of valuables with you, or if you are travelling with little ones please stay at an all inclusive, with proper security and safes, and ofcourse working locks.

I have been to Negril 5 times and like to check out resorts/hotels for future visits. I stopped in on the beach side, the gate was wide open, looking for someone to ask for a tour. I was scolded for entering a private place and shooed away immediately. I apologized and told him that the gate was wide open and he wouldn't even look at me! The name should be changed to Uptight Dayz. I have never met anyone so rude.

We loved Lazy Dayz. It is a small property with about 8 rustic cabins/gazebos and a beach house with 3 separate apartments. All of the cabins/gazebo have outdoor (but still private showers. Both times we were there the place was barely over half full. Their website (we believe deliberately) does not do the place justice. It is beautiful. Very lush, very private. It is right in the center of 7 mile beach, so it is right next to plenty of bars and restaurants. It does not have it's own bar or restaurant, but we found this preferable as there was never any foot traffic other than our few fellow guests and about 6 local staff. BTW, make friends with the grounds guys and the maids. They are very nice and helpful and will find people for you. But please tip them nicely if you do ask them for help. We ended up getting a private trip for 6 to YS Falls for a good price.

Lazy Dayz is definitely not the place for people who are looking for more up-scale accommodations. My husband and I, along with friends, have stayed at Lazy Dayz in 2008 and came back in 2009, so between all of us, we have stayed at the Gazebo, Green Door, Coral Door and the Sky House. The "Door" cabins are pretty standard cabins closer to the road, and thus more noise, and we felt the Gazebo and the Sky House were well worth the extra money. The Sky House is in the treetops, so it is very private and the view down is great. The Gazebo is 50 feet from the water and overlooks the beach. Listening to the water was wonderful. The only downside is that the bathroom is detached and downstairs and sometimes used by other guests. Since the place is so small, this really isn't an issue. It is definitely still worth sleeping next to the ocean. Take a look at our pictures. You'll see.

Overall, this place is perfect for independent travelers looking for private cabins who don't mind figuring out the area food for yourself.
A few food recommendations: Right next door is a field used for events, but during the day there are little shops. Get a patty from Niah's. They make them fresh (be ready to wait 10-15 minutes) and only cost about 5 dollars. Perfect food to take right back to your beach chair. And see if Pansy is still a couple doors down. She is the sweetest thing and will make fresh squeezed juice for you to pick up the next day. We go to this place almost everyday we're there. Breakfast at Charela's , dinner at Marley's on the beach. Those and patties for lunch are 3 meals you can't go wrong with.
