My family and I went to RIU Ocho Rios from 08/02/08-08/08/08. Eight of us traveled including 4 adults (age 30-44) and 4 kids (age 15mo., 6, 10, and 15). Check in was quick although it was not great. I was refused the opportunity to make dinner reservations at 5:55p because they end at 6p. The drinks they offer at that... more

Overall we had a very good experience at the RIU. My husband and I stayed there from August 12 - 16th in an Oceanfront room (rm. 2301 - Bldg 2). I was not sure what I would find at the RIU since some of the reviews were very critical. But I must say, the resort is beautiful, the staff is... more

We stayed at the RIU Ochos Rios for the last 2 weeks of May 2008. We flew via Thomson, no problems except hotel transfer bus was a heap! We didn't stop during the 2 hour journey, probably because the mini-bus was so slow and could hardly get up the hills. Check-in was smooth. We were initially put in ground floor... more
