If you are thinking of staying at an Ocho Rios all inclusive resort and don't know which one is the best, well here I am ranking them all according to reviews. Reviews from thousands of travelers who have stayed at each Ocho Rios all inclusive resort are the best, most objective way to determine which hotel is best for you.
Ocho Rios is on the north shore of Jamaica and along with Negril, Montego Bay, and Runaway Bay is one of the main resort areas on the island of Jamaica. Ocho Rios means 8 rivers in Spanish but there aren't 8 rivers in Ocho Rios. The confusion is rooted in the English misunderstanding of the Spanish phrase meaning many waterfalls, as Ocho Rios is famous for their waterfalls. In fact, in most Jamaica tourism advertisements you will most likely see a picture of the Ocho Rios waterfalls with people climbing or swimming in them.
