    Depends what you mean by "best".

    Hedo bus : Best price, but slowest
    Car service : Least wait time to leave the airport, faster than the bus, but not as fast as TimAir.
    TimAir : Fastest, but most expensive

    Agree with the above except I'm not totally convinced that with all things considered TimAir actually saves you that much time over a car service. We flew in last trip more to experience it once and see the views etc. but between security, wait time, loading etc. we were probably at the Negril strip a little over an hour ish after getting our bags.

    As far as the bus we've found Sun Holiday to be pretty prompt, sometimes you have to wait a while for a bus to fill up but we've been pretty lucky and only stopped at one other resort one time with them.

    I have used Rocky's Taxi Service for years both personally and with my Group and I can highly recommend his transportation.

    Safe, secure, prompt, reliable and even a Red Stripe, water or soda in the private transfer vehicle with zero stops to/from Hedo unless you request.

    That's an excellent point. People focus on the actual flight time compared with driving time but should also take into account all added times (i.e. security). The end result might only be a minor time saving.

    One reason I like the Sun Holiday bus is because it's bigger than most of the other vehicles you encounter,some of which may not exactly obey all traffic laws.Plus you sometimes get to meet interesting characters on the bus.And we are all headed to the same place direct with never a stop.................

    I've had both experiences with Tim Air. It was my observation that if you had two people, reserved, and pay in cash, it can be VERY fast. I've seen more security going into a museum! It's the walk to Domestic Departures that can kill you if you're not ready for it! Or waiting for a miraculous credit card machine connection. Or waiting for the other couple who wants to go to the bathroom/buy a drink/take a picture. And all you want to do is get on the plane and get naked!

    You can get on the plane naked with TimAir? Had I known, I would have booked that instead of Rocky's!!!
    BTW: Just kidding, I knew what you meant, but I just couldn't help myself. ;-)

    Good points, for sure. But of late, we have been avoiding the Hedo bus transfer.
    I'm not a big fan of the way they pack in the luggage and stack it on the back bench seat of the bus.
    If that bus stops quickly or rear ends something that luggage is heading for the front of the bus, quickly.
    Best way to go is by car or taxi, it's the safest.
