The Hotel Riu Palace Tropical Bay (All Inclusive 24h), is located at the famous Bloody Bay beach in Negril, Jamaica, one of the best resorts in the area par excellence. Its Victorian style inspires harmony and calmness surrounded by a 47,000 m2 garden.

There‘s no better way to relax than in a Riu Palace with all the options for relaxation it has to offer. The complex includes two fresh water swimming pools, a solarium terrace, gym, Jacuzzi, sauna, the “Renova Spa” wellness centre and a vast beach where you can sunbathe and enjoy a drink.

The 24h All Inclusive system gives you the opportunity to sample the best Jamaican cuisine prepared by our chefs for the buffet restaurant or the delicious menus in the themed restaurants: a wide variety to satisfy every palate.

We recommend you to try out the entertainment programme that the Riu Palace Tropical Bay has organised for all ages. For adults and children alike, there are endless activities to do as a family, couple or with friends. The complex includes two tennis courts, table tennis, a gym, volleyball, windsurfing, sailing, snorkelling, kayaking, bodyboarding, diving and other water activities. For the children, there is a playground near the beach and an entertainment programme where they can enjoy a range of activities with our entertainers. Jamaica harbours many secrets and wonderful places. You mustn’t miss excursions to the thermal springs of Rhodes, Hall Plantation, the crowded Seven Mile Beach, The Great Morass where you can see endemic birds and American crocodiles, or Roaring River, a cave where you can swim and see harmless bats. If you like to play golf, the Negril Hills course is perfect for enjoying a game. In Negril you can also go cycling through the hills which offer splendid photo opportunities. .

Fall in love with Negril and have your best holiday at the Riu Palace Tropical Bay.

    Great Hotel and Service

    This hotel was fantastic the staff did everything in their power to take care of us 100% without question anything we needed they saw to our needs the only problem that I had with them is there restaurants out of the five nights we stayed we only ate in one restaurant except for the buffet the other days it should be easier to get a reservation or no reservation at all to eat at the restaurants they have five restaurants I don't understand why they're always booked and they can't have somebody just walk in and eat it seems ridiculous to me you should pay more attention to the guest eating in the restaurants has nothing to do with the staff the staff was excellent It's just getting in the restaurant was almost impossible we only ate one restaurant the whole time we were there except for the buffet

    The Best Vacation Ever

    It was my best Riu trip ever. I spent 10 days this time for my daughter’s 32nd birthday. The beach was beautiful and amazing! Food was also with a variety of dishes and choices beautifully presented. The room was clean and well appointed every day. The drinks were excellent each one as good as the last with champagne flowing easily. The grounds were well kept and beautiful but could be improved upon in the future .

    Fabulous

    Stayed at Rui Palce, The complex was very clean as was the rooms. The beach was amazing and kept to a very high standard even with the unsettled weather at the beginning. The staff were always smiling and very helpful. The only downside was the speciality restaurants, firstly had trouble making reservations via the app, also the chefs need to taste their from as it lacked seasoning. The buffet restaurant was very good and there was always a lot of choice. Overall it was a fantastic break

    Amazing

    Out of all the resorts and riu hotels I have been to this was by fair my favourite The location is beautiful… the food was amazing and didn’t make me sick like most resorts .. the buffet girls were lovely and so friendly Dena went over and above every morning for us . the selection and service was incredible… the boys at the bars were extremely professional and had a huge knowledge of drinks that I’ve never experienced at a resort before … I watched Sillion Ohshain and jelani be berated and insulted by guests … they kept their cool and were so professional… very impressive considering the amount of rude European guests that were there during our stay Never have a seen such a performance from a bartender like Sillion Mike was always smiling and keeping us hydrated on the beach All and all a great vacation can’t wait to return
