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.

.Arrived a day late due to airline cancelling. Front desk at property gave number for management to contact for reimbursement.Dialed number to contact management no answer.So unfortunate no refund or extended day,

loved it!

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.
