JAMAICA: Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.s). What is the temperature like in Negril? The temperature in Negril is ideal year round. Its proximity to the equator means average temperatures are 75degrees F to 85 degrees F. In winter, the average temperature is 75 degrees; in summer it's about 80. Year-round, temperatures are usually five to 10 degrees cooler in the mountain. Typically sunny year-round, Jamaica has rainy months in May, June, September and October. Jamaica's 4-day weather forecast. During what months of the year does the Jamaican hurricane season typically fall?Hurricanes in Jamaica are actually rare, the last one being in 1988. The season runs from July to October. What type of clothing is appropriate for a vacation at Home Sweet Home? Home Sweet Home is a casual resort. Shorts, t-shirts, slacks, a light jacket for evenings and swimwear are appropriate and comfortable attire for your stay. You are after all right at home. What is the currency? Goods and services are usually purchased in Jamaican dollars, although prices are sometimes posted in U.S. dollars, then converted. What language is spoken in Jamaica? While it is arguable that the popular speech of Jamaicans is a distinct language from English, it was derived largely from English that has been the official language for over 300 years. The dialect/slang called Patois is widely used by many Jamaicans. Can I
drink the water in Jamaica and at Home Sweet Home? Yes. All drinking water in Jamaica is purified and filtered. Can I bring my dog or cat on my vacation? No, Jamaica does not allow pets into the country without a 6 months quarantine. The island is Rabies free and pets, even with proper vaccinations are prohibited. Does How Sweet Home have
babysitting services for my children?
Babysitting services are available at Home Sweet Home and can be arranged at the Front
Desk. What transportation is available in Negril?
Taxis, minibuses, rental cars and sightseeing bus
tours. Do I need to have a passport to travel to Jamaica? US Citizens: As of Jan. 8th, 2007 a valid passport is required. Canadian Citizens: A valid passport (no visa required) or a Statement of Live Birth certificate AND a valid government issued photo I.D. If you have questions about these requirements or are a citizen of another country, please consult your local JTB
office Are ATM machines readily available and what systems do they support? Many of the major
banks in Jamaica, including Scotia
Bank and National Commercial
Bank are a part of the Cirrus system, so participating cards will work on their dozens of machines across the country. Bear in mind though that the ATMs dispense Jamaican dollars, so you have to request cash in the Jamaican dollar amount. The rate of exchange is approximately J$65 to US$1.
Security: The per capita crime rate in Negril is lower than in most North American cities, but there is violent crime. This is particularly concentrated in downtown Kingston (90% of violent crime takes place in four Kingston police districts), but can be encountered anywhere on the island. Beware of pickpockets in the main tourist areas and be firm but polite with touts. Take a
taxi from bus stations to your hotel.. Observe the obvious precautions and you should have no problem. The vast majority of Jamaicans welcome tourists and want to be helpful but the actions of the minority can leave you with the impression that tourists are not wanted. You will generally have no problem.

;The setting is so gorgeous and the atmosphere so relaxing that my friend and I really had no desire to leave it; and didn;t -- for the first two days! We hung out on the rocks all morning while they were shaded, read all afternoon in the sun, cliffside, at the
pool, and in the hammock. Floated on foam cushions in the calm sea. When sunset came, we had Marva;s rum fruit
drinks that were truly;marva-lous;. All of it topped off with fabulous Jamaican meals and dessert. This was my first visit to Jamaica and the staff confirmed what I;d heard about the good-natured people. Their joyfulness and desire to make sure we had fun spilled over onto us and helped make our vacation a blast. Once we were decompressed and ready to venture out, Alex gave us the scoop on the nightlife and music/beach scene and Reggie lined up a driver to get us there. I liked going out with their guidance and recommendations. Once we got back, we were bid good night by Zukie, the night
security man, who seemed glad we;d had so much fun dancing on the beach. A great vacation in a wonderful place. Can;t wait to return.; -- Cindy, Minneapolis, MN
