Immediately upon entering Couples Swept Away, you realize that you
have arrived in paradise.
Exotic flowers bloom amidst acres of green—on seven miles of the purest white sand beach in
Negril, Jamaica. Dotted among the tropical gardens—open-air cafés, small pool enclaves and
fresh fruit oases are yours to discover. Never crowded or hurried, the resort offers an intimate
tranquility and when desired, total seclusion.
All rooms embrace a quiet elegance with island cedar furnishings and pure white linens.
Plantation shutters open onto private verandahs with views of gardens and azure sea.
Breezy open-air restaurants engage candle-lit lanterns and billowing white curtains to strike a
romantic note. While the pristine 10-acre sports complex encompasses every imaginable
activity, the superb spa serves as a haven of relaxation. Couples Swept Away simply captures
your heart and soothes your soul.
BEACHES
The most beautiful beaches in Jamaica have no crowds, social
directors or schedules—just endless sunshine, soft sand and warm
waters.
Stroll along the ocean's edge or simply stake your private spot in the shade for a day of
uninterrupted quiet. Secluded areas for au naturel sunbathing are available at our
Couples Tower Isle, Couples Sans Souci and Couples Negril resorts.
When an active mood strikes, a host of water sports—such as windsurfing, kayaking or
snorkeling—is at your immediate disposal. Beach volleyball is always a favorite pastime,
while glass-bottom boats and private catamarans whisk you out on the waves for all-day
outings or sunset cocktails.
MUSIC & NIGHTLIFE
Each night at our resorts, we invite you to sample from a world of local
and international musical talent.
From steel drums to soul, from reggae rhythms to rock 'n' roll, there's a beat to match every
mood. Outdoor events such at the Manager's cocktail party, the beach party and movie
night are held weekly under the star-studded Caribbean skies. The piano bar offers a chic
indoor setting for cocktails and live entertainment five nights of the week—and transforms
itself for the remaining two into a lively nightclub that will inspire you to kick up your
heels.
Our Philosophy
At Couples Resorts, the key to our success is our people
and the exceptional service they provide. That’s because we believe in going further than
merely meeting your expectations—we strive to exceed them by adding a special personal
touch to every facet of your Caribbean experience.
Every member of our staff shares in this passion for service and commitment to ensuring
that your stay is perfect from start to finish. By offering exceptional five-star service and
world-class amenities in Jamaica or Barbados most idyllic natural setting, we create a
carefree and enchanting environment—that encourages you to forget about everything
except enjoying each other. Without distraction, crowds, children or schedules, our
“couples only” philosophy translates into pure romance from the moment you arrive.
Some call it quality time. Others call it intimacy. In Jamaica, we call it irie (I-ree)—or
simply, beautiful. In Barbados we call it “Liming” — relaxing .
The restaurants at Couples Resorts Swept Away are—in a word—divine.
Under the auspices of Executive Chef Stefan Spath, our talented culinary team infuses the
finest international cuisine with tantalizing Caribbean flavors —
for a menu sure to please even the most discriminating palette. Jamaica's renowned herbs
and spices—fiery Scotch bonnet pepper, pimento, nutmeg, ginger, tamarind and sweet
coconut—are added to dishes made with fresh seasonal produce, as well as beautiful seafood
caught daily by local fishermen. Not to be missed, the assortment of tropical fruit such as
ackee, breadfruit, june plum and soursop is as mouthwatering as it is unique to the island.
Should you have any dietary requirements or restrictions, our chefs would be happy to
accommodate them.
From five-star dining at the elegant Feathers to the freshest juices and salads at the Seagrape
Veggie Bar, the resort offers the perfect treat for even the most discriminating gourmets.
Based on an extravagant selection of tropical fruits and vegetables, the freshest local seafood
and a rainbow of island spices, every meal is designed to delight with a memorable pairing of
flavors and textures—served in an unforgettable setting.

History
Couples Resorts’ founder Abe Issa opened Jamaica’s first year-round
resort—Tower Isle Hotel—in 1949 and never looked back.
In 1978, he pioneered the all-inclusive concept for couples to the island—blending luxury,
romance and value under one roof. Named Couples Ocho Rios, it served as the corner stone
for building the Couples Resorts brand.
Aptly dubbed “The Father of Jamaican Tourism,” Abe understood the importance of
creating resorts as luxurious as they are authentic. By intertwining local Caribbean
culture, spectacular natural settings and first-rate amenities, he achieved an undeniably
successful combination.
Today, Couples Resorts proudly owns and operates five all-inclusive luxury boutique
resorts in the Caribbean-four in Jamaica and one in Barbados. Embracing a casual yet chic
style infused with pure Jamaican island, each one offers a genuine, intimate and truly
memorable experience.
Still very much a family business, Couples Resorts is led by Abe's son, Lee, and other
members of the Issa family, who along with a dedicated team of management and staff,
remain committed to Abe's pioneering vision and dedicated to making sure that each visit is
a perfect one.
