We have just returned from Jamaica, having booked to stay at the Riu Tropical Bay 5th to 19th.

We went to RIU in April with 40 others to get married. The overall stay was okay but for the price we paid we could have went to a nicer place. We did stay at another resort for our Honeymoon the following week and the comparison for the price alone was unreal. First of all there is NO SPORTS BAR... more
