Just returned from Riu Ocho Rios April 20 so this is a late review. We had a great time on our trip, loved Jamaica, its people, and the resort as well. We were told by a tour guide that the Riu Ocho Rios, to date, is the largest resort in Jamaica (but soon to be second largest when a new... more

We had an amazingly great vacation. We practically lived on these message boards before we went, and we're glad we did. We're also glad we did not listen to the whiny-bird complainers who nit-picked everything. I'll try to cover our many points that we observed/experienced.

If you want swimming, snorkeling at the beach, watersports, tennis, pool, entertainment, dancing, shopping, volleyball, parties, music, games, noise ...... this is the place. There are people of all... more

I'll begin by stating that I've been criticized in the past about my reviews. We travel four times a year to various Carribean locations so we are fairly seasoned travelers. We decided to take a last minute short holiday to Ocho Rios. Reading the reviews the only negative I could find that would be warranted was the ala carte reservation... more
