    The room settings were great, the beach has too much seaweeds, I didn’t bother to swim, I just sit at the pool instead

    The overall setting was ok, accommodation and entertainment was superb, the meal choices were unbelievable satisfying.

    A great Riu Hotel!

    Overall, a wonderful experience. There was a bit of a mixup with the schedule to have the mini bar in our room restocked every 2 days. On three occasions I had to check on it and ask for bottled water at the front desk. Also, I would like to know what product is sprayed around the resort? I would assume it is something to control the flies and bugs. But, I don’t think it should be sprayed while people are still around the pool and beach areas. There wasn’t any notice or signs around informing people when this was to happen, and we got caught in the middle of this once and it gave myself and my partner a headache and a cough.

    Cockroaches, noisy aircon, power cuts.

    Arrived late yesterday and found air conditioning sounded like a plane taking off. Had to leave it off all night. Shower adjustment broken. Then woke up to cockroaches in the bathroom in the morning. Got a room change- air conditioning sounded just as loud, fridge empty and room smells. Not a great start, 2 days into my 7 nights here and not sat on a beach yet. Now waiting because they have to double check what I’m saying is correct! Spoke to my TUI rep (she may as well work for Riu as she is no use to the holidaymaker) while trying to get a drink in the lobby and can’t get my drink as there is a power cut. Pity as this newly renovated property looks great but avoid coming here until their issues are resolved.

    Negril never disappoints!

    Just returned from a trip to Negril, Jamaica with my family and stayed at the Riu Negril hotel. My first visit back to the island in 25 years and the island was just as I remembered! The island is beautiful, the people are friendly and it is always a great time! I just have to say the Riu Negril hotel was great except for the Air Conditioning and the reservation service. My family of 9 was there for 7 nights and we weren't able to make a reservation at any of the restaurants for one night! We were forced to eat at one of the 2 buffets restaurants for every meal! For the price I paid, I felt like this was totally unacceptable! I could have saved a lot of money and stayed at an all-inclusive with just one restaurant! They also no longer offer room service. If you are looking for a great local guy that can take you any where you need to go, ATM machine, tours, local spots to eat and drink, A1 on the beach is your guy! He took care of my family and I during our stay. I have his contact number if anyone is interested? Jamaica is a beautiful place!

    lifts and boggie

    I was shock to know that this hotel has no lifts, and I was given a room on the second floor and because of not lifts I had to change to a ground floor. My other shock was this hotel is on a large ground and there is not buggies to transport people who has mobility problems from one side to the other side of the hotel grounds. This is needed. I would like to point out housekeeping needs to be visited as 3 nights we have had request towels as our room only had one for two people to share and we were kept waiting for the whole day
