Huh. They have been talking about doing renovations for a couple of years. They are sadly needed, for sure.

Yes, I also heard that they will be doing a complete tear down of the resort. Can't remember exactly when it was supposed to be completed, but not this year.

I think the new resort is a family resort, so no nudity.

I saw the other day a story in the Gleaner (maybe??) that said there were some questions over the plans. Both of those things seem to be really bad news, but don't know whether it will be a case of 'money talks'..

..not that JA is at all unusual in the Caribbean, or in the world, for that matter, in that respect. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

Does anyone know what the actual status of the approval of the over water bungalows and 4?? story plan is? I admit <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Blush.gif" alt="" /> that I sometimes read the Trip Advisor Negril section to see what's going on and geez louise!! I am astounded that TA deletes and/or closes any topics about the subject.. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Crazy.gif" alt="" />

Knew it was going to happen soon, but still depressing, for those who experienced Grand Lido, when it WAS Grand. Or.. When people used to called it the "Grand Yuppie". <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> Please post if you know anything more about what will actually happen there.

Would be interested to see those construction updates and pictures of the progress!! (OK, well, not maybe 'progress' as far as I can tell, but to see what's going on with the construction..)
