More seriously, can you recommend any places to stay? My SO and I are thinking of going to Jamaica next January, and we care more about price than luxury. But I definitely want to dive.
We've been four times, and have always stayed at Couples Negril. It's a nice property, with an on-site dive op.
Samsara Resort (I'm not into posh, and enjoyed my stay there).
Consider White Sands, one of the original Negril beach resorts. A great location, realistic prices, and I think the Moo Young family still runs it. They will set you up to do anything you want, scuba included. A very special vibe, as we used to say in the old days.
If you go, give Henry my regards, assuming he's still around, same for his daughter and sister, who once told me my daughter was lovely. It wasn't my daughter, but that's how it was in old Negril.

We ended up reserving a trip to Roatan instead of Jamaica

A mix of sarcasm/irony. Even in the most overfished waters, or sheltered of resort beach areas, there were plenty of sea urchins. Maybe I was being paranoid, but it got to the point where I wouldn't get in the ocean without my scuba boots.
As for where to stay - depending on what your price range is, I'd look at something like Apple Vacations' "Square Deals". They're usually package deals at an all-inclusive resort, including air fare, meals, etc. You can't pick which hotel, but you can pick the rating level. Apple uses them to get rid of "overstock" rooms and flights that the company would otherwise be stuck with. Vacation Express, Apple's big rival, has their own version.
Edit: Interesting - for some reason, I couldn't see your last post until I replied. Oh well. Have fun in Roatan!
Sorry, did not see your post until today. We'll be staying at Las Rocas resort: Diving – Las Rocas Resort & Dive Center – Roatan
