Hi Everyone,

What is the dress code at ROR? I have only been told about long pants for men in some restaurants, with no reference to sandals at all? I would like to let our guest know before hand if they need to bring specific shoes or other items.

Thanks for your help!

Also during the day even the Planatation reuires shirts for lunch. My daughter had a bathing suit top on and shorts and was asked to put a shirt on.

Many of my guests had changed into shorts and flipflops for our dinner (for comfort for dancing on the beach) and there was no problem. The men in the bridal party wore flipflops and it was fine. In terms of the dress code, as Maureen said, Sir Richard, Sir John and Tushima were the only places where it seemed enforced. My brother and my husband wore sandals and shorts to all other restaurants, and we ate at each one several times.

Kristyne, as indicated above, men & women are allowed to wear sandals at Mammee Bay, Plantation & St.Ann. The dress code is strict at Sir Richards, Sir John, & Tushima. For those restaurants I would suggest long pants/slacks/khaki's & shoes for men.

This thread would also apply to welcome dinners:

Make sure to do a search if you have any other general ROR questions or visit the Jamaica subforum as there are lots of threads on ROR.
