We were at the Riu from the 14th through the 21st of June, 2009. Our stay was great. The water and beach was clean. The rooms were always clean, as well as the linens. We usually do not use the pool much, but from what I could see it was clean. We went in one time to the bar. The... more

If you want to spend your money wisley go to Riu Palace in Cancun. Riu in Cancun service is far better than Riu in Jamaica. I will never go back to Riu in Jamaica. more

Our group went to the ROR in the middle of June. The weather was perfect, only rained a couple of hours on the first day. This is a huge resort, the biggest i've every stayed at in 7 all inclusive trips between Mexico, Dominican Republic and now Jamaica. The lobby was a nice open air setting as you walk in.... more

We stayed here in the middle of May - it rained for most of the week! The trip from the airport took us first past the Iberostar complex and then the new Bahia Principe - we have stayed in hotels of all three groups previously. The Riu cost about two thirds the cost of the others – hence we were... more

Stayed at RIU June 21 to June 28. This is a great resort. It is exceptionally clean. The beach is excellent and so is the food. I cant imagine anyone not finding lots to eat at the dinner buffet. The food was hot or cold as it should be, waitress and/or waiters were very good. Booked all tours right there... more

I am writing this review to help the traveler who is unsure of this resort due to negative comments, or someone who is going to Jamaica for the first time! First of all, here are the many myths you might come across in other... more

The RIU overall was a decent resort. During the day it was great, but it's seriously lacking nightlife. The service was average with the exception of two wonderful bartenders we met at the poolbar - Allie and Marvin. They were very entertaining and made the days so much fun! Thanks guys! They desperately need new beds and pillows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The food... more
