Wow!!! This is a totally relaxing place for all-inclusive chilling out. Standard rooms are just dandy; pools, bars, restaurants are all excellent. Entertainment was fun and suitable for families, and there are an army of staff to look after your every need. October is fairly quiet so it never felt at all crowded and a-la-carte restaurant bookings were easy to... more

We stayed at the Riu in Ocho Rios, Jamaica for 4 days with my husband's family, which included our 3-year-old son, my brother-in-law and in-laws.

The check-in process is a little different than the Sandals resorts we've stayed at in the... more
