Grand Lido Negril and Couples Negril are more secluded due to the bay they are located on, so you might look hard at those two. Both have outstanding reputations for quality, service, and food. Both have great beaches.
I know the diving around Negril is very fun and easy, though not in the same class as Cozumel, T&C, or Bonaire. I have been told by friends that the dive crews at both resorts are excellent. However, they follow very conservative, safe dive profiles and do not generally allow shore dives. Couples and Grand Lido include diving (along with food, beverages, and alcohol) in the price. If you want more freedom in your diving you might look at SunDivers Negril, though they recently have a new owner.
Just based on reputation, you must take a look at Grand Cayman also. I hear the beaches and diving are very good, but at a noticeably higher cost.
