Just wanted to make sure I gave credit where credit is due. I actually created a trip advisor account just to rate this resort! Some of the reviews on here are very unfair! My girlfriend and I are in our mid twenties and had a wonderful experience; could not have asked for anything more. We were instantly upgraded to an... more

The rooms wear really nice. I didn't care for the mattress on my bed or the plastic patio furniture on my balcony, but that was minor to me. I... more

Let me begin by saying that the beach on this resort is amazing. The two RIU resorts as well as the Hedonism resort are on Bloody Bay. The appears to help the erosion that would... more

We have just returned from Jamaica, having booked to stay at the Riu Tropical Bay 5th to 19th. We knew that the hotel was to close for re-furbishment on 20th, but had been assured by First Choice Holidays that nothing would affect our holiday. The first 2 days were fabulous!! Great rooms, the best beach we have ever seen, gorgeous... more

In trying to find out where the smell was coming from discovered mold behind the beds and around the air vents near the bathroom. After three days our room was changed - not by the general... more
