I enjoyed this place very much. The staff was extremely friendly, dive shop is very professional and helpful (especially Myrun) I hope to come back again soon.
The only thing I think could use improvement is better food at the Steakhouse at dinner. Wasn't really that pleased with that restaurant. Breakfast is great, lots of variety.
Definitely worth the money to go and dive with ScubaCaribe. Talk with Myrun or Seymour!
Thank you for a wonderful vacation
The bed was very comfortable too. Cleaning staff was great.

Stayed at the Riu Negril 1/17 to 1/22/08. Overall it was a good experience. Would not recommend the Brazilian rest. the meats were overcooked and the chef looked annoyed the whole time. The steak house was good but found it strange that we had to walk downstairs for our soup, salad and dessert. The buffet anytime was great with the exception of the desserts which had no taste (every time and in all the rest). As far as reservations go people are on line by 9:20 and they do not take the res. until 10AM. You can see that they control how many people eat at the restaraunts (we saw several empty tables and the response I got from the front desk was that people just do not show up - I found that hard to believe considering the place was completely booked and where else do you have to go to eat?? The weather was okay some clouds and one day of rain - the beach is nice with lots of trees for shade. The water is def. murky not clear like in other places I have been, the locals stay contained and do not harass you - if you walk down the beach further you will find an open market for trinkets and the local herb. I would suggest getting a room on the second floor the first floor has a terrible musty smell. Also stay in tower one or two the walk is pretty long in the other areas. The staff in the spa were not friendly period. Overall for a quick trip it was well worth the money - the price could not be beat. I would do another Apple vacation a decent value for the money.
