Couples Tower Isle is expected to open March 14th, 2009.

Description / Location

With origins dating to the 1940s, the Couples Ocho Rios' tall trees and tropical foliage, expansive lawns, and flowering plants create a tranquil ambience for relaxation and romance. As the name signifies, the resort accepts only couples age 18 or older. Registration, accompanied by champagne and chilled towels, takes place while guests are seated in a breezy, marble-floor lobby with potted plants and banana-yellow walls. Terraced above the beach are two seven-person spa tubs. The 137-meter (150-yard) beach and a sundeck around a 27 x 11 meter (90 x 35 foot) pool offer swimsuits-required sunbathing. Topless sunbathing is permitted on a pier. Nude sunbathing is confined to Tower Isle, 137 meters (150 yards) offshore and accessible by a shuttle boat during the day only. It features a stone tower for panoramic ocean viewing, a small pool with swim-up bar, and thatched-roof cabanas with hammocks. In a shady jungle garden near the resort’s entrance and accessible by short paths are two secluded two-person spa tubs under wood-shingled gazebos. At the head of the paths are "vacant/occupied" signs.
