"It isn't the most glamorous, or the most upscale, of the Sandals resorts, but the chain's management makes it their flagship."

Try to avoid booking one of the 10 rooms positioned immediately above the dining area; these don't have balconies and may be noisy.

"While a similar sense of merriment pervades all of the chain's resorts, including the more relaxed Negril property, this one parties hardest."

"The largest private beach in Montego Bay is the highlight of this Sandals—one of the most popular upscale resorts in the Caribbean."

"Two blockbuster hotels of Negril occupy immediately adjacent plots of beachfront, beside the highway leading in from Montego Bay, east of Negril's town center."

"A friendly resort with a mellow beach, free minibars, and a surprisingly solid buffet -- the Riu Negril is a great value."

"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."

"At the far north end of Negril on Bloody Bay, this massive resort has a decent, sandy beachfront."
