A private car and driver will cost you approx. $60 to $70 USD. A tour bus with other people would cost about $25 USD.
Westender Inn has nice villas, and Blue Cave Castle has ambiance. Both are Honey Moon places and the staff at both are great.

The first week of June we stayed a week and had a very nice driver named Oz. He drove us to and from the Montego Bay airport to Negril. He took us touring the mountains,took us to dinner and arranged a snorkling tour with Vicent's glass bottom boat. Reasonable green prices and a lot of helpful info. E-mail the negril_pirate (A member of virtual Tourist this site) and he will get in touch with OZ for you !OZ Phone number is 876-359-4184 but its exspensive to call unless your in Negril.
www.juta.negril is a reliable shuttle service & also the cheapest way to get from the airport to Negril & back. You can book your airport pickup on line. You may share a small or large tour bus with other visitors which sometimes makes it more fun. About $20US one way, a regular charter taxi wil cost you upwards of $60US one way.
If there are 2 or more people travelling together, then a private tour bus makes more sense though, and with only the stops that you want to make. I have been the only person on a Juta Bus, and I have also travelled where we made many stops. Luggage has to be unloaded at every stop. And if your destination is in the Western part of Negril, you will be the last to get off. And if your pick up is in the deep west, then you will be the earliest pick up. All depends on which way you want to come and go.
At first I found Jamaicans to be taciturn. Perhaps they are just shy, maybe a little wary of tourists. Anyway, I was just persistently kind and in the end most of the hotel staff seemed to thaw a bit. Just don't expect Jamaicans to behave and act like Americans -- they aren't Americans and they have a distinctly different outlook and world view. Be tolerant and and open minded and you should be just fine!
On the way to Mayfield Falls, there is a little store run by a wonderful family who will sell you shoes and other purchases. Danette makes a wonderful Coconut cookie and will sell you a cool coconut milk drink. They have a cute bamboo house on the hill. Wonderful family, Tony and Danette are really nice and will make you feel you have been touched by the real Jamaican spirit.
the most famous beer in jamaica is "red stripe". it is a good beer, but in my opinion the "light red stripe" beer tastes better. another good local beer is the "guinness".
but this is the caribbean after all, and the number one drink is still the rum. there are several brands of jamaican rum. the most famous probably is "appletown", and the strongest is the "jb" rum (65% alcohol). too strong for you? try mixing it with juices. nothing can beat a cold rum punch
This has not been open very long in relation to some other restaurants in Negril, but they do a great job with fresh seafood! Snapper is a common fish served in Negril, and CAFS cooks it deliciously, pan fried or grilled. Lobster, in season, is also one of their specialities (Lobster season is from October until April). It is located right on the cliffs with ocean views and breezes---thatched roofing and comfortable chairs make for a good place to go for dinner on the Cliffs. Pan fried Snapper---fresh and juicy!
This is a great thing to do when you have about 3 to 4 hours to kill and you will get to see alot in this ride. The ride starts out leaving the farm, after a short time you come across the old mill, very cool. At this point your horse may stop at will for a nibble and no matter what you try he's not going any where! After a few minutes the horse decided it was time to go, because he sure wouldn't listen to me when I asked! Now on to the next point in this adventure. See next.
