Nov 07, 2026Great place to stay, amazing entreteniment team!
I stayed at RIU Negril from October 20th to 27th and celebrated my birthday while there. The resort itself is clean, comfortable, and very well laid out. It’s not one of those massive, overwhelming properties where you have to walk miles to get anywhere. The staff everywhere are extremely polite and attentive. The food was good across all the restaurants, but the Steakhouse was easily our favorite (and where I celebrated my birthday dinner!). As for drinks, after trying a few options, I realized the Bob and Rita Marley cocktail was my favorite. The resort’s beach is great. It's calm, warm, and clear enough to spot fish swimming around. There were a few spots of seaweed, but because the water is clear, it’s super easy to see and step around. We rented kayaks one day, which was a highlight. We actually took a trip out to 7 Mile Beach (Margaritaville area) one afternoon, but I still prefer in the resort. 7 miles was noisy and the water is not as calm. Now, I HAVE to talk about the entertainment team. WOW. WOW. WOW!!!!!!!!!! These guys and girls deserve the highest salaries! From 10 AM walking along the beach with their signature "good morning, good morning" energy all the way until 11 PM (or later!) after the night show, their energy never dropped. They dance, sing, lead sports, chat, and are so genuinely kind and talented. A massive shoutout to SHIN SHIN (the star), what a truly special and incredibly human being. I’m terrible with names, but so many of them made an impression: 45, Shadow, Whitney, Timon, Toothpick, Gigi, Squad... sorry to anyone I missed, but what an absolute powerhouse team. I’ve stayed at several other RIUs and all-inclusives, but this team in Negril is on another level. Congrats!!! For off-resort trips, we did three quick outings: 1. A boat trip with snorkeling and a stop at Rick’s Café. We loved it! We swam with colorful fish and even saw dolphins. 2. Shopping at Times Square Mall: great prices and convenient shuttle service. 3. 7 Mile Beach, nice to see once, but again, RIU's beach was better. Thanks RIU Negril. We left with amazing memories!

70th & 45th Celebrations.
Wow, firstly would like to thank your front of house team in particular Shoya and Shenae whose attention to detail and customer service was off the scale. I wrote several times to them both via team emails prior to travel and every request albeit subject to availability was fulfilled. The rooms we were allocated, distance to facilities etc were all granted and we had a wonderful time. We celebrated 2 milestone events a 70th birthday and 45th wedding anniversary we had cakes, champagne etc which made the event extra special touch. The waiting staff in all the restaurants were really good along with the fantastic choice of food there really was something for everyone. The swim up/Rastaman bars team headed by Daley and his team Mario, Fabian and the young ladies etc were amazing and certainly kept us all entertained with their wit etc without compromising the service. The entertainment team, Shadow, Timeon, etc all kept the fun going poolside, water aerobics, bingo, karaoke and the the well presented evening entertainment the Michal Jackson show in particular we could not find fault with anything all was on point. The only issue possibly with less able people would be absence of elevators to the rooms surprised the RIU management did not take the opportunity to install these during refurbishment block by block you have ample space I felt for the bell hop team. Looking forward to another RIU experience next year.

Our best holiday yet!
Our Best Holiday Yet – Riu Negril 🇯🇲❤️ We honestly cannot praise Riu Negril enough! From the beautiful hotel to the lovely food, we have had the most amazing holiday, and without a doubt, this has been our best holiday yet. However, what has truly made our experience so special is the incredible staff. They have gone above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable, and some of them deserve every bit of recognition they can get. A massive shout-out to the entire entertainment team! You all bring so much energy, happiness and fun to the resort, and you make such a difference to everyone’s holiday. A special mention to a few people who have really stood out to us: ❤️ Shan-Lee – Entertainment Team: Absolutely amazing! We have built such a lovely bond with Shan-Lee, and she has genuinely made our holiday so special. She is such a beautiful person inside and out, and we will miss her so much. She is a real credit to the team! ❤️ Leroy – Lifeguard: An absolute GEM! Such a lovely person who deserves so much appreciation. People like Leroy make a holiday that little bit more special, and we cannot thank him enough for being so wonderful. ❤️ Hercules: Absolutely amazing! Thank you for being such a lovely person and helping make our holiday one to remember. ❤️ Natasha – Sports Bar: Thank you for being so lovely and making our time at the resort even more enjoyable. You deserve recognition for all that you do! ❤️ Peter An. – Sports Bar: Another amazing member of staff who deserves a special mention. Thank you for being part of such a fantastic holiday for us! ❤️ The lovely lady who works at both the Sports Bar and Swim-Up Pool Bar: We are so sorry that we don’t know your name, but we really hope this reaches you! We have built such a lovely bond with you, and you have been such a pleasure to see throughout our stay. Thank you for being you! ❤️ Shantoy – Plaza Bar waitress on the evening shifts: Where do we even begin? Shantoy deserves ALL the praise she can possibly get! She is such an amazing lady, and her kindness and personality have made such a lasting impression on all of us. We have grown so fond of her, and she will genuinely be missed by every single one of us. She is an absolute credit to Riu Negril, and we hope the hotel recognises just how special she is. To every member of staff who has smiled at us, had a conversation with us, made us laugh or simply gone out of their way to make us feel welcome, THANK YOU! You have made us feel so much more than just guests, and it is the people who make a place truly special. We would love for the management team to pass on our thanks and ensure that everyone mentioned receives the recognition they deserve. These members of staff have made such a positive impact on our holiday, and we really want them to know how appreciated they are. Riu Negril is a beautiful hotel, the food has been lovely, and the memories we have made here will stay with us for a long time. We have laughed, made friendships and met people who we will genuinely miss when we leave. We will DEFINITELY be back! ❤️🇯🇲 Thank you, Riu Negril, for giving us our best holiday yet. A special thank you to the incredible staff who have made Jamaica feel like a home away from home. You are what makes this resort so special, and we cannot wait to see you all again! ❤️

Oct 23, 2026A beautiful setting, rude staff
In 11 trips to the Caribbean never before have I felt like staff didn’t want us here. Especially female staff, my mum is I. A wheelchair, she’s been given dirty looks, had rude comments, it started with check in. I asked to pay for a room upgrade. The lady checking us in completely dismissed me. I visited the Royalton blue waters on my previous trip to Jamaica and the staff were amazing. It’s such a shame to have such a negative trip this time, where it’s made me feel this will be my last time visiting Jamaica.
