Jamaica's
Original All-Inclusive Resort
Couples
Ocho Rios captures the essence of Old Jamaica charm mixed
with breath-taking beauty. The hotel itself stands impressive
as its white exterior is beautifully contrasted by all of
nature's gifts. The ambiance combines the allure of a 50's
Hollywood hangout with a preserved feeling of lush tropical
splendors. Our powdery white sand beach is awaiting your footprints.
Our fresh-water pool overlooking the sea is ready to refresh
you.
At
Couples Ocho Rios, it's all about you and the simple ways
we can please you. Enjoy unlimited meals, 24-hour food service,
unlimited premium brand beverages at any of our 4 bars, all
land and water-sports activities and a variety of off-site
excursions. It's your vacation and it needs to be special.
It's our pleasure to make it happen.
Couples Resorts places a strong emphasis on our No-Tipping
Policy. Once you arrive on our property, a friendly "thank
you" is the best tip you can give, and the only one allowed.
(Outside our resorts tipping is customary for all airport
baggage personnel, taxi drivers, and other service personnel)
