Thank you, Thank you again. Love your family and the Smile on the Little one
Thank you James. Appreciate your kind words. Wishing you safe travels 😊
Thank you for the video we are travelling in April we haven’t been to this hotel for 9 years. Great to see the renovations and hear an honest opinion of the facilities 👍
Wow going back after 9 years! Your loyalty to Jamaica and this Resort make you absolutely deserving of the improvements. Wish you complete joy on your upcoming trip!!
Me and my wife spent our honeymoon there 2015 and it was nice. But with the renovations is a huge upgrade big difference. We are returning back in June. Thanks for the video.
Hi Isaac, I'm sure you and your wife will have a wonderful time. Enjoy your trip to the newly renovated version of the resort!
EXCELLENT Review! Definitely one of the better ones on the Riu Negril. Thank you.
You've convinced me this is where we need to be when the pandemic is over.
Glad you enjoyed it. We had an absolute blast and are sure you will too! 🙌
Going to nigril in october never been before but looking at the video very impressive caint wait
Just came back yesterday I love NEGRIL ..🇯🇲
Glad you had a great time, just the same as we did! 🙌
Thank you for such a detailed review. You didn't mention if there were mosquitos or if you noticed any bug issues. The last resort I visited was infested with flies, especially in the dining areas. My family and I are interested in visiting this resort and your review was really helpful.
Hi Lola, glad you found it helpful. We didn't notice flies or mosquitoes there. It was the end of December so not sure if perhaps they come out other times of the year but certainly not while we were there :)
@@lifewithmahana Thanks so much.
You're absolutely welcome!
Let's go 🇯🇲
I appreciate your review. It was great and excellent detail, I might add. My friends and I will be staying at this resort in Nov. 2019. I have one questions though; is the spa all inclusive as well. I'm soo looking forward to this trip... I can't thank you enough for your thorough review. It always helps to know what your getting yourself into.
Pashion thanks for your appreciation! The spa services are not included. This is usually the case at all inclusive resorts. I wish it was but spa services are never included. The spa services are quite pricey but if I was to recommend one well worth the spend, it would be the outdoor massage! At check in, the front desk will give you various literature, one of which is a coupon to get a discount on salon services, so make sure to use that when heading to the spa. Wishing you a wonderful trip!!! Enjoy and let me know how it goes!
@@lifewithmahana Thanks! What would you say the price was for the outdoor spa
The only spa service we did was an outdoor couples massage, which will run you about $250. If you book your service online ahead of time, there is a 10% discount. Here's the website to their spa (Renova Spa): www.renovaspa.com
Hope it helps 😊
@@lifewithmahana thanks
do they have crab legs there
going in January for 2 week can’t wait
Awesome! Hoping you a safe and enjoyable trip 🙌
@@lifewithmahana thankyouu
Excelente video, lamentablemente por una cuestión de idiomas (somos argentinos y hablamos solo el español) se hace un poco dificil entender en su totalidad pero igual tenemos una buena idea formada. En abril tenemos reservas en ese hotel por primera vez, somos dos matrimonios mayores. Mi pregunta es como llegar desde el aeropuerto de Montego Bay al hotel, si hay buses, taxis, etc, y precios de esos transportes para no pagar algo injusto. Saludos. Muchas gracias.
Can you bring food up to your room from the buffet? Is there a smoking area on premises?
Did you have to have reservations for the additional restaurants/ were they an extra cost/ were you only allowed a certain number of days there? Thanks :) we are going there in April and appreciated your review!
Hi! Great questions. The specialty restaurants are included for no additional cost. They don't take reservations, just first come first serve, however once they open in the evening at 6:30pm there will be a short line up to get seated. After seats fill, they do offer a waiting list and ask you to enjoy the outside bar until they personally find you. It's quite well managed and wasn't stressful at all! You can go to one each night you're there, there are no restriction on the number of times you can visit. The Japanese and Italian restaurants were our two favorites.
Glad you enjoyed the review! Are you taking kids? Either way, have tons of fun, it really is great.
@@lifewithmahana no kids yet, but the other couple we go with have children so they have been looking for good places to take children
Perfect. If we didn't take kids we would have visited Rick's Cafe to see the crazy cliff divers, maybe you can check it out and let me know how it was lol
wao thankyou ! You explained everything so well !!
Glad you found it helpful!!
Jewels resort jamaica
Ive stayed here a couple of times. Very nice. But the Riu tropical bay, which is its neighbor is just as good, why pay the extra for the palace? Especially since the renovation. Enjoy
The baby is my favorite, lol. Sooo cute. She loves to eat and she seemed to really enjoy herself godbless her. Can't wait til my daughter is old enough.
Lol thanks! She definitely enjoyed herself. Other than falling and scraping both knees on the pavement, she had the best time! She enjoyed the soothing horseback ride so much that she fell asleep on the horse, lol!....Have fun capturing memories of your little one, Wishing you trips to the best beaches in the world!
Thanks for the video. Is there anything to do on the resort after the shows?
Hi Marisa! Sometimes they have beach parties after the show. Otherwise the general atmosphere at night is nice so no need to rush to sleep, enjoy the outdoor lights and seating areas at night :)
Great video. It’s says all inclusive but then again it’s written breakfast free. Does that mean the other meals we need to pay?
It is all inclusive. Can confirm all meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner are free. That breakfast free sign is more for the locals that like to pay the "day fee" to be able to utilize the resorts facilities for the day. Breakfast and not the other meals must be included in their day fee.
@@lifewithmahana thank you. Very helpful video.
Glad you found the video useful. Wishing you and your family safe travels 🤗
What was the cost of the spa and other restaurants?
The restaurants are all included as part of the all inclusive (no extra cost). The spa services are paid and vary depending on the treatment you get. An outdoor couples massage (the one we did) will run you $250. They do give you spa treatment coupons at check in, so make sure you use them when booking any spa services. 😊
Have you been to this resort or are planning to go? I would go back in a heart beat!
glow mahana it's awesome i am from 🇯🇲 but live in the United States am going next month hit me up if you will be there 2282058113
Have a safe journey and enjoy your trip!
Do you know if all rooms come with a sofa bed?
Can't confirm. Our room did though. Best to call the resort and double check. Wishing you a safe trip!
I would like you to say what are extra charges and what are included in the payment to the hotel
Same as most all inclusive resorts. This one was no different. Usually the only things that are extra are salon services, any beach activities (like jet skis, parasailing, banana boat etc) and ofcourse any activities associated with leaving the resort to visit local spots. Hope that helps and wishing you a great trip!
I been traveling to montego bay for a few years. Im looking into going to negril in august
I'm sure you'll love it Michael!
I just wanted to know how much is it for 7 days
We went this past December which was considered peak season. We booked a package for 7 nights for two adults, a teen and a toddler and it came to 7K (Canadian Dollars). Would probably be less if you were to go off-peak season.
So what’s your favorite beach out of the ones you’ve visited? What’s the gold standard?
Based on the beaches we've been to so far, Negril has been the best one. Cancun trip coming up end of this month, so will be uploading another review video soon.
❤#VeryNice
Glad you like it. Thank you ❤️
@@lifewithmahana ,You are most welcome.
So what’s best , Montego Bay or negril ? ?
Between the two Negril is considered the nicer (more premium) destination.
why are the pools so small ?
There are multiple pools of varying sizes at the resort.
Was the his & her massage extra cost?
Yes, any of the salon related services (massages included) are extra cost.
The riu palace in mobay is adults only..
thank god... my kids are grown
Mo bay is montego
@@foxytoffiebrown us Jamaicans call it mobay..Montego bay ,is what foreigners call it.Yuh simi
