"A friendly resort with a mellow beach, free minibars, and a surprisingly solid buffet -- the Riu Negril is a great value." Full review
Star Service "This resort may come of as a bit dated in comparison to Breezes, Sandals and the pair of Couples hotels on the beach, but it has a bit more elegance than its sibling Riu Tropical Bay." Full review
Fodor's "At the far north end of Negril on Bloody Bay, this massive resort has a decent, sandy beachfront." Full review
