Just returned from Jamaica and made the RIU reggae home for the week. We had nothing bad to say about our stay. The rooms were clean and possibility even newly renovated. The beach was very clean and calm so we spent a lot of time there. The pools had all the activities and the entertainment was really good. Everyone was friendly. We enjoyed the buffet and found the al carte a little disappointing. There are so many options so you will not go hungry. I think I would have preferred the palace for my next trip as there were a few extra I would have liked. [Details]

Hotel, accommodations, and food I would rate at 3.5. What makes this resort is the entire entertainment team. They work hard to ensure everyone has a great time. From 10am till after midnight. The nightly shows are amazing. Always something to do. The beach is small, but beautiful. The cons for me are the resort deals with all Service in their app. No one answers the front desk. Dinner reservations made thru the app. If travelling with a group it's a pain. And no room service. And check in took longer then it should, after a long travel day standing in line for over 30 min to check in sucked. [Details]

I enjoyed my stay at Riu Reggae but i think now i am older i need a resort more relaxing. I enjoy the entertainment it keeps the resort lively. I like the idea of riu party and the club thats available in the other resort. The rooms are a bit run down since the last time ive been. The staff were the best part of the experience. They were what made the resort over all. I like the new smoking section you created on the right instead of the middle. less mosquitos. The entertainment was amazing. Also I did want to state I did see one roach in the bed room, I never kept any food in the room, and never saw one after. Sometimes in climates like this its expected. some people are bothered by it , as this hotel is suppose to be 4 stars some may not be. [Details]
- the rooms were a little run down since the last time we visited
-saw one roach in our room, made sure not to bring any food in the room.
- the a la cart were really disappointing since the last time we have been in 2018.

Well I am sad to say that this will be our last time coming to Jamaica and what a shame it has become...We travel to Jamaica alot, in fact we have been to Jamaica 25 times in total , and 3 times in just the past 8 months so we are well versed in what to expect and what not to....I know things are hard for alot.of people and I'm sure the social economic status has changed due to lockdowns, so you would think they would treat people with some respect and leave a good.impression...as the island only survives because of tourists visiting it...They way they talk to woman is down right disgusting which I have witnessed a few times before but never as obvious as it was this trip....But this time they decided to do it to my Love and I don't appreciate that at all...Anyway....The ladies cleaning the rooms were amazing and rooms were clean...Food was OK at best...In Conclusion, We will be finding a new island to visit and will be leaving the rude treatment of our past beloved Jamaica...

Worst out of the 3 and ROACHES and NO ROOM SERVICE
Chantel R, Brampton, HA
2023-05-28
So I'm going to be as honest as I can be I am a 35 yr old who was looking for a party resort and sadly out of palace..reggae and montego bay I chose the wrong one...Riu Reggae never again We watched alot of Tik Tok and YouTube reviews but this was the worse. Roaches in room and dining area and no room service or food after 10pm. They served old sandwiches and nachos at the bar that were disgusting. Out of the 3 Riu Palace has access to all the other Riu as a reggae and montego bay attendee security will NOT ALLOW YOU ON THE OTHER PROPERTIES. The food was terrible and they have no air conditioning in the main foyer or halls. The area is really boring and you need Taxi to go any and everywhere. I had a roach crawling in my room and a roach at my dining table during dinner. We were so happy to leave the resort. My hubby and I snuck over to Riu Palace and it was like night and day. They had better pools...bars...AIR CONDITIONING in the foyer and 24 hour room service!!! They had shopping stores withing the foyer and just over looked so fancy with concierge and everything..do your self a favor pay the extra and DONT CHEAP OUT BECAUSE YOU WILL REGRET RIU REGGAE. We thought it was a vibe with the young crowd ..but when we seen the parties at the other resort we were sadly mistaken. [Details]

Overall we loved our stay at the Riu Reggae, we will definitely be back! The cozy atmosphere of the adults only resort was very relaxing! You could be on the beach but still be included in everything going on at the pool. There were many activities throughout the day as well as downtime to spend relaxing on the beach. The restaurants all had amazing food, though you had to go early if you wanted to get into an a la carte option. The late night snack options were not great - sandwiches and movie theatre nachos. Sometimes there were beef patties, but even these seemed to be a bit old and were not available all the time. [Details]

The best experience I've ever had an all inclusive resort.
First off....it is a lively resort and there is a lot of action. We are a late 40's couple but we are pretty down with it so the party vibe did not bother us. However there were couples that we saw and spoke with that were in and around our age and slightly older and they could not wait to get off the resort and back home. Do you research first and make sure that this is where you want to go. Only 2 things that I can complain about, #1 the beach is not the greatest, small, lots of seaweed and its soft bottom. But Jamaica is not really know for their beaches, especially Montego Bay. Secondly, at night it is loud, especially where our room was situated. We were right over the lobby/lobby bar and the sound travels and resonates all night long. If you're a light sleeper...good luck to you. There are 3 pools; the main party pool with a swim up bar, a pool in the middle of the 2 pools, longer and quieter no bar, and smaller pool with a swim up bar that is much quieter and chilled compared to the main one.
The resort is very clean and well maintained. Lots of amenities in the rooms and overall resort. The staff were all friendly and most were good at what they do. Bartenders work hard, don't be afraid to show them some appreciation $$$. A couple of dollars a day towards them go a long way. Trust me. The servers, especially Claudia, are fabulous. She is so lovely and really works hard. She made sure we were taken care of everyday. The entertainment team are some of the best I've seen. They have passion and energy and know how to work it. Big up the DJ's as well always rinsing out the baddest tunes.
In the alla cart restaurants, the food was great, service was good and we didn't have any issues with anything. No reservations needed and there is no maximum amount of times you could go to any one restaurant.
We will be back, and we can't wait to get back. [Details]

Hotel is OK, I wouldn't go back. It's meant for young adults on a budget the Mobay and Palace look much better. Reggae is really low value and cheap. There are people yelling outside in the bushes selling weed, power went out twice in the 3 days we were there. For the price for just a short period I would have expected much more. Not many choices for restaurants only the buffet the rest are closed or long wait time even before closing. Beach was OK there seaweed and sand not very nice in the water, water was slightly brown to. [Details]

We were on the main floor near the end of one of the living areas. The room was clean and a good size. The bathroom was also clean and we had no problems with hot water. We liked the double sinks which made getting ready much easier. Unfortunately our overhead fan needed some TLC but we didn't even use it so no biggy. The food was great, the pools were more then enough for the total number of guests. Yeah the beach isn't as big as some resorts we have stayed in but it was big enough for us and we enjoyed every minute on it. The staff were all friendly especially the entertainment crew who worked all day and then gave some great performances at night. We thought the resort's evening entertainment was the best we have seen. Great dancing, great themes and very experienced performers. All in all this resort was just the right size and being an "adults only" made our stay even better!! [Details]

Very clean resort and service was good. Food was ok - not hot enough and pasta never cooked enough Never running out of face cloth and towels. Was expecting more of an adult entertainment during the games and at night. After the night show, the hotel was a ghost town as we had to go to the sister resort (2 resorts down) to have the night music. The fridge was only replenish every 2 days - would of liked every day. First time having a smoking section and it was only on one side of the resort (should have more locations). Always had lots of pressure and hot water anytime we took our shower. Very annoying having the planes fly over the resort all the time. It was our honeymoon trip and they upgraded our room free of charge - had a bottle of champagne and a plate of fruits. [Details]

We stayed at the Riu Reggae (RR) from January 27th to February 3rd. I had seen this resort advertised as anywhere from a 4 to 5 star resort. It is definitely not a 5 star, but probably more like a 4 star. The staff are amazing. They are very friendly and attentive. The hotel itself is new, but fairly plain, as there is little color in the rooms or the lobby. There are 4 specialty restaurants and one buffet. You don't need reservations for the restaurants, The Italian restaurant was the best of the four, but there are only 4 entrees to order from, and only one of them contains pasta. There is a salad bar that includes some pastas to choose from, but it still seemed strange that there were no specific pasta dishes. The Oriental restaurant is buffet, no a la carte orders. It wasn't bad. The steak restaurant was a la carte, but again, a very limited number of menu items. The steak at the Italian restaurant was actually better than here. We didn't go to Kulinarium, but it also had a small menu. The buffet wasn't bad. There was decent variety, but not enough dessert choices. All the food at the restaurants tasted fairly good. The beach isn't bad, but it's fairly small. You didn't have to be out there at 6:00 am to get a spot, which was nice. The pools weren't bad, but there weren't a lot of chairs around them, so you had to be there early to get a spot. There was no drink service at the pool or the beach. If you wanted a drink, you had to go to the bar yourself to get it. Most of the bars didn't put much alcohol in the drinks, and sometimes didn't put any alcohol in them. Overall, this wasn't a bad resort, but nothing really stood out either. The employees work very hard. This place has potential, it just needs to be ramped up a bit. [Details]

The Riu Reggae was an excellent resort. The check in process is not handled well. You have to stand in one line to get your bracelet and another line for your package with your room key etc. The resort has one elevator for one section but we couldn't find the other elevator to get to our building. The food is excellent especially the restaurants. The beach is small and disappointing with sand with pieces of sharp bits of shell. We were use to walking for long distances on the beach but you can only walk to the other Riu resorts (Palace and Montego Bay). The rooms were spacious and clean. The shower had a frosted glass panel inside. People in the room couldn't really see the naked body but just the shadow. It's fine if you are with your partner but not if you are with a friend. It didn't bother us but found it odd. Overall it is a good resort and the staff were excellent. The drinks were plentiful and with quality spirits. Throughout the day there was lots of activities if you wanted to participate. [Details]

What a beautiful resort
I enjoyed it so much I've already booked my next stay [Details]
Lots of fun
Was not that impressed with the restaurants.
Great time at the Riu Reggae
The food was great, the pools were more then enough for the total number of guests. Yeah the beach isn't as big as some resorts we have stayed in but it was big enough for us and we enjoyed every minute on it. The staff were all friendly especially the entertainment crew who worked all day and then gave some great performances at night. We thought the resort's evening entertainment was the best we have seen. Great dancing, great themes and very experienced performers.
All in all this resort was just the right size and being an "adults only" made our stay even better!! [Details]
Nice hotel
Awesome week at Riu Reggae!!
Rio Reggae rocks!
Great Resort
Experience adult resort
Never running out of face cloth and towels.
Was expecting more of an adult entertainment during the games and at night. After the night show, the hotel was a ghost town as we had to go to the sister resort (2 resorts down) to have the night music.
The fridge was only replenish every 2 days - would of liked every day.
First time having a smoking section and it was only on one side of the resort (should have more locations). Always had lots of pressure and hot water anytime we took our shower. Very annoying having the planes fly over the resort all the time. It was our honeymoon trip and they upgraded our room free of charge - had a bottle of champagne and a plate of fruits. [Details]
Montego Bay
This resort was ok, my rating is three and a half.
The beach isn't bad, but it's fairly small. You didn't have to be out there at 6:00 am to get a spot, which was nice.
The pools weren't bad, but there weren't a lot of chairs around them, so you had to be there early to get a spot. There was no drink service at the pool or the beach. If you wanted a drink, you had to go to the bar yourself to get it. Most of the bars didn't put much alcohol in the drinks, and sometimes didn't put any alcohol in them.
Overall, this wasn't a bad resort, but nothing really stood out either. The employees work very hard. This place has potential, it just needs to be ramped up a bit. [Details]
The staff were amazing ; hotel was definitely clea
