Hi, I am looking into visiting Jamaica. What are the main differences between Riu Negril and Riu Palace Tropical?
|
|
|
|
|
| Riu Palace Tropical Bay is more upscale than Riu Negril. It has larger, more recently upgraded rooms, slightly more upscale food, and a nicer lobby. Guests staying at Riu Palace Tropical Bay can use the facilities at Riu Negril, but not vice-versa. We'll be glad to assist you in getting rates for both properties (and others we like in Negril). |
