Top Runaway Bay Hotel Reviews

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the layout and the amenities! Beach was so easily accessible!"

Hotel Riu Ocho Rios - All Inclusive

4/10 Poor

"This property is for the young crowd. If you love seeing naked bodies then this is the resort for you. Food was not that great. Sometimes it was luke warm. Had reservations for the steak restaurant after being seated and orders taken we were told they ran out of steak. Smh"

The Cardiff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Affordable and nice place to be. You get your money's eorth and the staff and trainees are usually friendly and helpful. The food is delicious. However, dining can take longer than usual, especially if it's a la cart service. The Kitchen needs to do better with the time frame for serving meals."

Couples Tower Isle All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"If you’re going for a chill vibe for vacation. This is definitely the place. So peaceful and relaxing. The workers are so helpful, nice, really make your experience here. They offer a lot of activities during the day and evening time, on top of the excursions they offer. The food is never missed, it was good and always had options. The gaming room was fun when you wanted to do something a little different than whatever your norm is. They have a fully equipped gym to get a good workout in while on vacation. It was my first time at this resort and it was amazing. I would recommend to people and definitely be coming back. Oh lastly, this is something i noticed while being there but wasn’t too bad for me. The demographic of people here is older white people. You may find your younger couples and POC older or younger couples. But majority is older white which again wasn’t a problem just noticeable"

Moon Palace Jamaica – All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"This is truly a 5 star resort, from the clean facilities, excellent staff, excellent amenities, beautiful pools, beaches and flowrider to the excellent choices of food. Comfortable room, beautiful ocean view and elevators on every building (so good for wheel chair access). Great night entertainment and top class video game room with about 25 video games including x-box. Great for families or couples. Water slide, kids splash park and all pools are 4 feet or less in depth. I love this resort and will definitely go back. It is worth every penny."

Sandals Ochi - ALL INCLUSIVE Couples Only

10/10 Excellent

"100% worth the money! Everyone was so nice and explained everything well as it was our first stay at a resort. All of the food and drinks we had we're delicious and the perfect portions. It only got busy on Friday, so I'd recommend staying earlier in the week if you're not a fan of big crowds. The only issue is its not ADA friendly as there is a lot of walking and stairs so mobility devices can be difficult to have there"

Franklyn D. Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"This is an older resort but it’s authentic to Jamaica. The staff were amazing!!! If you want to feel the relaxed feeling of being home, this is definitely the place to be. The food was delicious and the drinks were very good. The beach was tiny but nice. There’s a larger beautiful beach for people who want something bigger. The large pool was great and the water slide was really fun. We loved it that the resort was small. We will definitely be returning!! One love!!"
