We have been to both GLN and GLB multiple times. Both resorts provide excellent food and service. GLN has little bit nicer beaches and water, the ground seems to have more plants. GLB has better rooms, much larger ground, larger swimming pools, a soccer field and a 9-hole executive golf course. We like both resorts.

We've stayed at all 3 Lidos--GLB 3 times, GLSS twice and GLN once. Braco has the most dining choices and is the most active. San Souci has the best rooms and the spa stuff included. Negril is very laid back. I liked the yacht. <BR> <BR>All 3 are nice. Braco is definitely the most convenient to get to.

We have stayed at Grand Lido Negril and just last month Braco. We prefer Braco, we think the setup of having a "town village" is great, on Friday night they do a "street fair" where a huge buffet is set up in the streets with tables and entertainment. It is still about a 1 hour ride from the airport. Enjoy, we will go back.
