The beach and water are perfect, water so clear and blue. No rocks or seaweed. The vendors selling anything from Cigerettes-cigars-cigars to weed are respectful. Just say no thank you and... More

Let me start by saying that my husband and I have been to Negril several times, but had never stayed on Bloody Bay or at the RPTB. Our daughter and son in law choose Riu Palace to get married. I had done lots of research on the hotel, read lots of reviews, and had spoken to a few others who... More
