  Awesome Experience

  Riu Montego Bay owes me nothing. Thank you for making my stay awesome. The food was great, the entertainment was top notch and the hospitality was just like home.

  4 star ot 5 but would return

  The hotel is so clean initially after reading some of the reviews I was a bit hesitant but we were pleasantly surprised there are 5 pools that are meticulously cleaned daily sothere is the pool bar area which was not for us as people just sit there all day drinking we chose a quieter pool, the beach was natutally very busy but we chose to sit on the quieter side adjacent to the water sports plenty of shade but also lots of sun if required. The food was excellent with a variety of choice for all diets the only downside was the dress code lots of peopel with barely anything on and at breakfast the last thing I want to see are the bum cheeks or other parts of the antomy of well endowed females. Jermaine at breakfast was amazing. Another downside was the smell of weed all over morning noon and night there is also a distinct lack of ashtrays so people do throw their nub ends of the balcony these are instanly cleaned up next day BUT. It is a party hotel BUT you do not need to partcipate theres always something to do and a quiet area to be found. The other downside was that there is the sports bar which is freezing with the air con or the main bar exodus but if you wanted to say miss the famous Riu party there is not another bar to go to. Beach shoes are advisable as the sea is beautiful and warm but underfoot it feels like standing in yoghurt. The sea hawkers in the canoes wre not a problem just a polite no and they understand. ALL the staff work so hard and tirelessy we found tipping in $1 dollar bills was gratefully recieved the Riu app is well worth downloading. We ate at 3 of the resteraunts: Asian, Steakhouse and Italian the service in both the Asian and Italian was fantatsic so was the food the steakhouse well I wished I had gone to the buffet. But these are all personal choices and does not deter from the hotel would we return YES the only reason not a 5 star is for small reasons such as it does cater for a younger crowd if we had known that we would hae probably booked the Riu Palace which we was not told until our last day that we could also use. We undertook some trips the Martha Brae was excellent but the Blue Lagoon was a huge disappointment we booked via Tui but be aware that the disclaimers you get to sign are water tight so you would not be covered for any accidents etc even on your insurance!! Another occurance was one day we saw a boat the Oxtail return from a scuba outing and a man was carried off on a stretcher we did not see anyy oxygen given to him or even CPR carried out it was quite scary to observe as it was pandemonium for about 10 minues and see a man on a stretcher blue faced white lipped and arm flopping was awful plus the heary wrenching tears of his wife. There was no co ordination and waiting for the stretcher seemed endless which concerned us another day we watched a man go swimming left his towel and sandals on the beach but we did not see him return next day the same towel and flip flops were still there! Meanwhile 4 of the water sports people just stand around chattering. The enertainment is top rate and they work so hard but occasinally can be a bit disparaging if you do not want to join in.

  Breathe taking

  Food need to be better that would be my only complaint or maybe because I’m a cook I’m harder to please but everything else was absolutely wonderful and well worth it already planning to go bck in a couple months
