Marie51 Posted August 1, 2011 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2011 ...In Ocho Rios Jamaica. Are they within walking distance or do I need to get a cab? Thanks, Rita Assuming your ship docks the same place where I did it will be a short walk..........maybe a couple blocks....to get to Island Village where Margaritaville is located along with other shops and a small beach.

Whumcruise Posted August 3, 2011 #4 Share Posted August 3, 2011 We enjoyed Margaritaville in Montego Bay much more than Ocho Rios, there it seems more like a shopping village... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtwitch Posted December 13, 2011 #5 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Is there a Hard Rock in Ocho Rios anymore? When I last looked at the HRC website, I didn't find one listed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheropita Posted December 14, 2011 #6 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Hi, How close is the Margaritaville in Montego Bay to the cruise port? Did you hire a cab? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whumcruise Posted December 14, 2011 #7 Share Posted December 14, 2011 For Margaritaville in Montego Bay you definitely need a taxi, it's about a 10 minute drive if I remember right. It is a nice place with water toys, right on the ocean. The one in Ocho Rios is close to the ship but we were not impressed at all. There is another one at a nice long beach in Negril, a couple of excursions go there for a beach break... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marysb Posted December 28, 2011 #9 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Is the beach by Margeritaville ok to hang out at for the afternoon? Or is there a better beach within walking distance from the port or Ocho Rios? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancruizer Posted December 29, 2011 #10 Share Posted December 29, 2011 We went to Margaritaville in OR with 2 kids (teen and preteen) last January and had fun. There was a beach which was just ok, but safe and clean. Pool had slide and hot tub on the roof which was fun (more for kids). It made a nice change of drinks and food from the ship and we figured we still saved over shore excursions. You simply need to walk up 2 blocks and go into the plaza. It is safe, just need to say no thanks to all offering you excursions etc. on the way. Our friends went to a beach that was close (by cab) and did not feel great about it. They didn't want to eat and said they didn't feel great there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
