The Cliff in Negril.

The latest Hotel Tracker found a six-night stay at The Cliff in Negril, with pricing at $266 per night for travel from Feb. 1 through Feb. 7, according to what we found on Google Hotels. For high season on Jamaica’s West End, that rate stands out, particularly for one of the area’s most design-forward boutique resorts.

Why It Matters Now

February is peak Negril season. The weather is dry, the evenings are cool, and the West End is fully alive, with sunset dinners, live music nights, and calm seas below the cliffs. Rates during this window often push well north of three hundred dollars a night, especially at smaller, adults-focused properties. Finding The Cliff in this range opens up a West End stay that usually feels reserved for shoulder season.

The Hotel

The Cliff sits on Negril’s limestone edge, away from the energy of Seven Mile Beach and firmly rooted in the quieter, ocean-facing West End. The property blends modern Caribbean design with open sightlines to the sea, using clean lines, natural textures, and a restrained palette that keeps the focus on the water below. Guest rooms and villas are arranged to preserve privacy, and the atmosphere skews calm, intimate, and unhurried.

The heart of the hotel is its cliffside pool deck, where the Caribbean stretches uninterrupted to the horizon and ladders drop directly into deep blue water for swimming and snorkeling. This is a place built around lingering mornings and long sunsets rather than programmed activity.

Dining and Drinks

Zest at The Cliff is the hotel’s signature restaurant, known locally for its contemporary Jamaican menu and polished service. Dishes lean toward fresh seafood, Caribbean spices, and global technique, with open-air dining that feels especially good at dusk. The bar is a natural gathering point in the early evening, with classic cocktails, rum-forward drinks, and a relaxed crowd that often includes both guests and visiting Negril regulars.

What You Do Here

Staying on the West End changes the rhythm of a Negril trip. Days tend to start slowly, with coffee overlooking the sea and time built in for swimming straight off the cliffs. Afternoons are ideal for spa appointments, reading by the pool, or short taxi rides to nearby favorites like Rick’s Café, Pushcart, or Blue Mahoe. Evenings belong to sunset, followed by dinner either on property or along West End Road, where some of Negril’s most character-driven restaurants are found.

If you want beach time, Seven Mile Beach is an easy ride away, making it simple to pair calm mornings at The Cliff with sandy afternoons at spots like Bloody Bay or Long Bay.

The Bottom Line

At $266 a night during the heart of winter, The Cliff offers a rare opportunity to stay in one of Negril’s most refined boutique hotels without the usual peak-season premium. For travelers who prefer sunsets over crowds and a quieter, more residential side of Jamaica, this rate makes the West End especially compelling right now.
