I was disappointed when I arrived which was late in the evening because of the transportation getting there late. I arrived just before 10pm as it was a journey which takes 9 hours to get to the hotel which causes me a lot of stress and anxiety, so you can understand having nothing to eat all that time and was told when I arrived at the hotel that all the restaurants stopped serving food but I can ordered room service which might just be sandwiches. I was left disappointed because I wanted something hot to eat and as this is an all inclusive resort which I have paid very good money to stay, I wasn't very happy to hear this. Why isn't there no grill bar open after hours for guests like myself can access hot meal, so my first impression left a bad taste in my mouth.
2nd I didn't like the room I was assigned to, as being a single person, my room was too far away from everything and also to find out that the safety box was out of order and the patio door wasn't shutting.
So can you understand my first impression was stressful, however with all of this mishaps and after speaking with the staff the following morning, they went all the way out to make the remainder of my stay a stress free one.

Had an awesome stay at the RIU Palace Tropical Bay in Negril. The beach is beautiful (no seaweed or rocks, nice clear/warm water). The jerk hut on the beach served delicious food that we had for lunch every day. In fact, the food in general was great (from the buffet to the à la carte restaurants). Loved the fresh omelettes in the mornings and the steak served at each restaurant is delicious! The bartenders are friendly, hilarious and fun. The vendors on the beach were a bit pushy. My best advice is to ignore them and don’t even make eye contact. Transportation is a 1.5-2 hour bus ride from Montego Bay airport. We booked with Jamaica Tours Limited and can’t complain, they were on time and bus drivers were friendly. On the way, our driver taught us a bit about the towns on the way, Jamaican culture and lifestyle.

Staff were great as was service. Facilities and the room were nice. Food completely average, not great but not bad….room service is not good at all, and the 24 hour snack lounge is terrible. Coffe bar was great, as were the regular bars but there are zero top shelf options at this resort. There is also very little to no nightlife at this resort. It’s a very low energy quiet resort for sure. We didn’t hate our stay but we also didn’t really enjoy it much. The beach is amazing and was the only reason we decided to stay here to start with. Hope that helps.

The staff was PHENOMENAL!! DO YOU HEAR ME - PHENOMENAL!! Despite being personally affected by Hurricane Beryl that had taken place about a week before my trip, the staff was pleasant and seemed to care about my comfort and enjoyment. The food and drinks were really good and diverse. I have zero complaints. The premises was clean and well kept.

We went for our anniversary in July of 2024 and had an amazing time. Reserve your dinners asap because the restaurants are small and fill up quickly. My only complaint is no elevators at this resort and we were on the third floor.

Having been to other RIU Resorts, this property is much smaller. The amenities are very limited and there are not a lot of activities to keep the kids involved. When sitting at the beach and pool, often times have to walk to the bar to get a drink. The main pool in which few activities took place was extremely small and thus limits participation. The relaxing pool, which is the largest, has a bee problem. Guests can not relax on the lounging chair without swarms of bees around. The relaxing pool also has a lot of bees and bugs in it. Guests have to request for the pool to be cleaned. There were also significant delays with room cleaning and not being left enough towels and washcloths for the room occupants. It would have been nice to have music around the pool throughout the day. Guests played music through personal speakers. The staff often commented that it is very hot in Jamaica so they try to stay out of the heat. That explains why services were so limited as we often did not see workers walking around to attend to guest needs. We were very disappointed with this stay. This resort has the potential to be great but needs a lot of work.

My trip dates were from July 5th-July 11th. When I checked in the resort at 3PM my room was not ready. I had to wait 30-45 minutes before it was ready. After I waited in the lobby for the 30-45 minutes. The front desk rep. advised there was no electricity (no lights, no AC, no tv). I had no choice but to check in because my taxi ride already left. I went in the room it smelled like mildew and the floor was moist because their was no AC. Good thing was they had a generator but it wasn't strong enough to carry the AC. Meanwhile it is hot as fish grease outside and my room felt hotter than outside. The only thing I could do was go to the beach and get in the water to try and stay cool. My stay here was horrible and my trip was ruined because I was constantly hot 24/7. The electricity was finally restored on Sunday but my room 4123 AC was not working properly so I was still hot for the remainder of my stay. I had to buy a stand up fan to try and get relief at night because I become asthmatic at night when it's too hot. I'm aware they were affected by Hurricane Beryl but I also feel like their should have been extra precautions in place when things like this occur. Some of the male workers were too flirtatious and it was making me feel uncomfortable because I am a solo traveler. I don't mind a compliment but they were asking too many personal questions regarding my employment & my marital status. Some of the female staff were mean spirited. I will not be returning to Jamaica.

It has been a wonderful vacation with the family. The hotel managed the hurricane in a very proficient way. We had 2 days without A/C, but all the services were at 100%. The beach is incredible. The Restaurants and food were really good and tasy.
The service was good. Employees were not always friendly, but its was ok.

I liked the food. Cleanest. The pool and the sea. I did not like the sevice of the ftont desk in the morning of July 8th...at 7-8 am..my pick up was arranged by the RIU representave for 7:15am and did not show up. And had to pay to get to montigo which we almost miss our flight. The front dest totally egnored and laugh of my sittuation which I gound very rude and unprofessional.very disappointed..your public rellation should look at this message.
