Couples Resort Jamaica Review
contributed
Thanks to the vision and leadership of one Abe Issa, this prestigious hotel chain has become, not just one of Jamaica's, but the Caribbean's best.

It started way back in 1943 when Abe convinced his dad to purchase the Myrtle Bank Hotel in Kingston. Then in January 1949, another property, Tower Isle, opened its doors.
This new hotel was soon to become a popular Hollywood hangout. Stage and screen stars, sports heroes and political figures frequented the resort.
Walt Disney, actress Eva Gabor, screen sensation Debbie Reynolds, movie star Errol Flynn, boxer Joe Louis and playwright Noel Coward and even Princess Margaret enjoyed what they called the old world charm of the resort.
Incidentally that hotel (Tower Isle) led the start of a new era of tourism in Jamaica. It also became the first resort to remain open year round!

In 1978 Abe turned the concept of all-inclusive into a reality in Jamaica and turned Tower Isle into our first all-inclusive resort for couples only, aptly named Couples Resort.
Today, Couples operates four luxury all-inclusive, couples-only resorts here.
The properties include the first-ever couples-only, all-inclusive resort, Couples Tower Isle- formerly Couples Ocho Rios, along with Couples Sans Souci, Couples Swept Away and Couples Negril.
Each Couples property is an unsurpassed model of the all-inclusive concept. Bold design elements and local inspiration create a laid-back natural setting infused with an authentic Caribbean spirit.
Their over thirty years experience has allowed them to learn and refined their products to be among the best in the country.
And what's included in this 'product'?
Yes, all four properties are ultra luxury, all-inclusive, romantic vacation destinations!
The European Spa atmosphere of Couples Sans Souci, the party atmosphere of Couples Ocho Rios, the sport style resort of Couples Swept Away, and the crown jewel of the Couples family - Couples Negril are ready to welcome you.
