Advantages: No kids, loads to do Disadvantages: American tourists, strange booking system for activites
We chose the Couples resort for our honeymoon because, as well as sun and sand, we wanted a resort where there would be plenty to see and do (yes, even on honeymoon ;-)). This was certainly true of Couples.
We travelled with Unijet (now part of First Choice I believe) from London Gatwick to Montego Bay airport. Since we were flying charter and the flight is around 8 hours long, we booked a "premium upgrade" for around £300 which gave us a longer seat pitch, free drinks, a choice of meals with real cutlery and seat back entertainment.
Arrival at the airport was a little chaotic. On clearing customs, there were LOTS of porters offering to carry our bags. My advice is not to bother because it is literally only a few feet to the Couples desk and then out to the bus. Yes, I did say bus. OK, it had air conditioning, but it was a bone ...
Advantages: Total Luxury, Watersports, NO KIDS Disadvantages: Shopping Trip - Not worth the grief
Last month my wife and I spent a most memorable week at Couples, OchoRios. The whole resort was totally amazing, the staff were attentive, helpful and just couldn't do enough to make our holiday the most amazing experience!
The resort itself had 5 restaurants ranging from a beach bar that served all sorts of snacks from nachos to jerk chicken to what were the strangest hot dogs my wife ever had in her life! Other choices of eateries were a very fancy french restaurant to the fantastic pasta eatery on a small pier over the sea, very romantic, especially by candlelight!
The choice of watersports was fabulous, from Scuba diving (at no extra charge!), to waterskiing, snorkelling, even a sunset cruise and it was all included in the price!
There were extras, but you aren't pushed into opting for any of these! The atmosphere was totally ...
Advantages: No kids, excellent value for money Disadvantages: small beach (albeit private)
-all-inclusive resort which basically means forget your money and get on with having a good time. The only extras are treatments in the beauty salon, extra trips if you want them and the gift shop.
So, doesn't sound cheap? Well, it's not what you would call cheap but it is not unreasonably priced for what you get. Shop around and you can get the 2 week package for £1600 each (flights, transfers, 1 week at OchosRios, air transfer for one further week at Couples Negril). So, what do you get…..

This has to be the most important part of my holiday and was I spoiled! You could eat almost 24 hours a day. There were 5 restaurants ranging from a beach grill to a gourmet restaurant.
The beach grill was open the longest and served things such as hot dogs, burgers, nachos with chilli and the Jamaica speciality of jerk chicken ...
