    Great Place to Stay

    My stay at RIU was very nice with a host of great staff and entertainment the entire time at the resort. My only complaint was that me and my friends were not able to go to RIU paradise due to not having a special colored band. Upon walking on the property, we were immediately told to not come back and that if we were to get any refreshments or drinks from RIU paradise then we would be fully charge upon checking out. Other than that, everything was perfect from the scenery to the food.

    Riu Reggae Rocks

    Loved this place! Would definitely go back. Great service, amazing food. It's known for being a party resort, but it was fairly easy to escape the noise too.

    loved it!

    Came with my brother and had such a good time! We really enjoyed the buffet at both reggae and Montego Bay as well as the jerk hut. We never made reservations for the restaurants and were still super happy with the food and service. The entertainment was better on the Montego Bay side, more interactive and fun I would say. The pool parties were so fun and I loved meeting people from around the world. Thanks for a great stay!

    Very nice resort but seriously noisy.

    Stayed at Riu Reggae for a week in April over Easter. Resort was very clean, food was amazing and the people were great. Shout out to bartenders Michelle and Delroy. Our server at the steakhouse Jaheim and our server at breakfast and lunch Zahaire, who always remembered where we liked to sit and what we liked to drink. Room was very clean and comfortable. Loved the mini bar with the actual bar bottle dispenser. Also made a request on the first day to not have sugar free Coke as I’m allergic and they fixed it immediately. Ok so now the not so great depending on how you like your vacations. I went in knowing it was a louder more “party” location. After researching I felt that there was going to be enough areas that were quieter that we could relax and read. This was not the case. It was loud music, yelling & drunk people from the time you got up to the time you went to bed (and beyond). The “quiet” pool is less busy yes, but too close to the party pool and you cannot even have a conversation it’s so loud. Also encountered exuberant guests in the buffet who were so loud you didn’t want to eat there as you couldn’t even think. My biggest complaint was I didn’t sleep through the night once in 7 days as people were screaming in the halls all night long. Also I get it’s Jamaica but the smell of pot is overwhelming at this resort no matter where you are. This all said, I would recommend this resort to a younger crowd that doesn’t need sleep or relaxation.
