Description:
Enjoying a choice spot in the middle of Seven Mile Beach, this is an intimate, personal inn. Its owners, Lee and Jane Issa, well known for their Couples resort chain, took a choice piece of family beachfront and opened the aptly named Idle Awhile as a side project on a narrow piece of land. The inn offers deluxe bedrooms with king-size beds and large verandas, and eight junior suites, each with a kitchenette and enclosed patio. There are also larger suites available with more living area and a more spacious veranda. Catering to families, singles, or couples, the resort offers guest privileges at the large sports complex at the nearby Couples Swept Away. Bedrooms are nestled in tropical gardens. On a luxury-living note, if you book a one-bedroom suite, you can hire a cook. For an additional US$20 (£10) per day. The chef will go grocery shopping for you and prepare you regional Jamaican dishes.
