If you snorkel off of N's beach out to the reef just 200yds from the beach you will see a pretty reef. Also when N's boat was running they would take you down to a reef towards Falmouth also a beautiful reef.

We spoke with Freddy (GM) over the weekend and he told us that no transaction was done. Still operating under Frank R. That is why we are returning.

How did you speak to Freddie? By phone? Would love to have his # or email address....We are returning for 3rd trip in October and need to reach him before we arrive. Glad to hear it did not sell and all is remaining the same. Anyone else going to be there over Halloween?

o2bnsxm said: What type of Security does N-Resort provide to allow walking on a two mile beach area? It seems this would be a very vulnerable situation for someone to "lie in wait" for a victim. We walked that section of beach twice during our visit, and security was on my mind but we never felt "exposed". About halfway down the beach there is a Royal Caribbean owned beach that is used for their cruisers, and although there were no cruisers on the beach there was a couple of security guards that didn't care at all that we strolled by nude. I kept an eye on them and noticed they didn't even look twice as we walked by. I must admit I wondered how I would do if I have to defend me or my wife in the buff, but nothing even remotely made me get past the wonder phase. To answer your question, N doesn't provide any security beyond their property line. Most of the walk is on a not very picturesque beach, and I'm assuming that even the dumbest criminals would figure out you don't have any cash on you... We did walk by a couple of Jamaicans that were walking the other direction up on a trail off the beach, they seemed completely unfazed. The key is to go at low tide, which may or may not be an ideal time during your visit. At high tide, some of the walk will be through, over and around brush and debris.

The beach is the Red Stripe beach. When N Resort first open it did not exist but Royal C opened the beach to their customers only. No cruise ship = No people. Either way just bring a wrap around and cover yourself when you feel needed. The walk is great and the locals don't bother with you. N resort is a great resort for us. We like to relax and stay at the resort all the time we are there but we have been to Falmouth to visit 3times and trust me it is very safe. If you want to go out of the resort just tell Freddie and he will send a member of the staff with you, seen it happen many times for other guest. Give N a try you will love it.

We are headed to N next month. We really like this resort. We walked the beach twice a day last time and felt very safe. Does anyone have a recommendation for a car service to take us from the airport to N?

We had the " pleasure" of being on the shuttle with a couple of exuberant families. The children's " how much longer" was echoed, even louder, by the parents, for all of at least 30 minutes. When we pulled up to N, the questions, " where are we " were answered with " an adult only resort". One of the mums said to us, "I guess you are glad to get rid of us", so rather than saying, " you bet" we just smiled ( thinking naked in 5) and said, " you are clearly very excited about your vacation." We did not refuse the immediate rum punch.
