Bottom Line
The Fun Holiday Beach Resort is a two-pearl hotel that offers basic rooms in a central location on Negril’s Seven Mile Beach. The rooms are small and no-frills, with outdated decor that could use a refresh (although they do have flat-screen TVs and free Wi-F). The property has more amenities than most value hotels, and its restaurant, pool, and all-inclusive option attract groups and budget travelers who are more interested in location than luxury. There's no fitness center, business center, or spa, but that's common in this price category.

Scene
A casual, somewhat dated property with an open-air concept
Set back a bit from the main road, the open-air lobby at Fun Holiday is breezy and informal, with chairs and tables as well as brochures that offer info about nearby tours and attractions. The reception desk is behind a window, separating guests from the staff. The rest of the hotel is visible from the lobby, and guests can easily see the room entrances, pool, restaurant, and the beach. The entire property has a laid-back vibe and attracts budget-minded guests who can overlook dated features and rooms for a fair price and nice beachside location.
Location
Easy access to Negril and the beach
Located on busy Norman Manley Boulevard, the resort itself is set back a bit from the main road, which means traffic noise is not so much of an issue in the rooms (though the sound from nearby nightlife spots can be a problem). The main highway can be dangerous for pedestrians, but walking along the beach -- on which the hotel is located -- puts guests within a mile of a number of shops, bars, and dining options (several restaurants are immediately adjacent to the hotel). The airport is about an hour-and-a-half away.
Rooms
Basic rooms with private, outdoor entrances
With simple amenities and basic layouts, the rooms at Fun Holiday Beach Resort are plain, with no frills. The decor in some rooms is in need of a refresh, as furnishings and bedspreads look fairly outdated. Some guests have complained of musty odors in the rooms, as well as noise from nearby nightlife spots. All entrances are private and outdoor, giving each room its own patio or balcony. Most rooms face the garden, but a few overlook the water, and all have air-conditioning. The rooms are housed in two main buildings that are a short walk from the beach.
Features
Few features aside from a beachside restaurant and a pool with a swim-up bar
All of the action at this hotel is centered around its prime beachfront location. An open-air restaurant overlooks the water and adjacent to it is a medium-size pool that features a swim-up bar and pretty ocean views (though some guests have complained that the pool deck is rather poorly maintained). Evening karaoke and other entertainment is offered, and water-sports equipment (such as snorkeling gear and kayaks) are available for rent on the beach. Though the property offers an all-inclusive option, most guests do not give the cuisine high marks and there have also been complaints that the hotel continuously runs out of food and alcohol. The hotel's location puts guests in close proximity to other dining options, as well as bars and shops. There is no fitness center, spa, or business center.
