Dec 23, 2024Almost impossible to fault...
It's almost impossible to find anything to criticise about Couples Sans Souci. It’s an excellent hotel/resort, catering (obviously) to couples. That, and the fact that it’s relatively small (about 150 rooms), makes it a tranquil choice. Rooms are large and comfortable with beautiful views over the gardens and sea. Catering is largely excellent, with 3 restaurants and 3 bars, and all the staff we met were lovely and helpful. Two of the restaurants are by reservation only, and can be full up for a week ahead, so I advise guests to make booking dinners a priority after arrival (especially Casanova, which in my opinion has the best food!). Tuesdays and Fridays are event days when restaurants are closed and everyone dines on the lawn, enjoying the entertainment – but there’s plenty of that the rest of the week as well. We loved the beautiful gardens and two lovely beaches (one of them catering to naturists), and a lake with birds and turtles. Just one warning – the hotel is set on the side of a cliff, with a steep road or stairs to get from bottom to top. There is a lift, but that’s reached by lots of steps too, so if you’re challenged by steps or inclines you will be dependent on calling the bellhops to transport you up and down by minibus, which they do cheerfully. Just the one criticism – the bed linen is thin and poor quality, and the pillows are foam-filled. It's an easy 10 minute journey to Ocho Rios town by route (shared) taxi (perhaps not after dark), where, despite the rather down-at-heel centre, there’s a nice waterfront and plenty of touristy shops catering to the cruise liners that come a few times a week. There are a few worthwhile excursions – Martha Brae river for a pleasant hour rafting down the river, and Konoko and Dunns River falls, both pretty basic but somewhere to go. We also did Kingston and Blue Mountains in a long day tour.

Perfect get away! Our favorite destination did not let us down in anyway.
As every time we have visited Sans Souci - our recent stay was perfect. The weather was excellent, the food was great and the staff was very accommodating as always. The grounds were manicured to the maximum and room service was on top of their game. It was a fantastic trip.

Outstanding
The staff at this resort are very friendly and the housekeeping had outstanding service! Thank you to all the staff who made our experience unforgettable. FOOD: Breakfast buffet is on point and was the highlight of the stay. Lunch - a la Carte located by the beach and also a smoothie & snack bar beside the gym. Dinner had 3 restaurants where you have to reserve ahead of time. You can book them yourself by scanning a QR code. Make sure to book the restaurants in advance once you arrive. If you are unable to book a restaurant they have a buffet/a la Carte area that you can eat at as well. Our favourite night was Caribbean night which was an outdoor buffet, the BBQ jerk chicken was amazing!! So delicious! BEACH: There are two beaches located here. One is the main beach and the other is a nude beach. We did not know this resort had a nude beach until we arrived. We didn’t go on the nude beach as it is optional. There are a lot of water activity’s included within the beach at this resort. I highly recommend to go snorkelling as much as you can! POOLS & SPA: There is one pool located by the beach and another pool which is located beside the gym. The pool located beside the gym has a special mineral pool and jacuzzi!! Which are great minerals for your skin. Located next to these pools is a sauna. This is a great area to relax as if you are at a spa. We used these everyday and they are even open for you 24/7. ROOM: We had an ocean suite room. It was very spacious and modern, it even had two shower heads. Not all rooms have two shower heads so make sure to inquire about this before booking. Overall, our room was very nice. You are able to book excursions that cost extra as well if you feel you want to leave the resort for a day. There is a gift shop and a jewelry/cigar shop located at the entrance of the resort. My only recommendation is that I wish there was more Jamaican food offered at the restaurants as I only really got to experience this on their Caribbean night (more jerk chicken needed).

Can’t wait to go back
We had a great time and plan to return. Staff were all wonderful. Massage was the best that I’d ever had. Food was delicious. You can be social and active or plenty of space to be alone too. Loved it!

Paradise awaits at Couples Sans Souci
I travelled to Jamaica with the Jamaican Tourist Board and stayed 3 amazing nights at the Couple Sans Souci. The grounds are stunning at the resort, and tucked away in their number 1 spa with their own mineral grotto. The service and staff are friendly, food was great. My room had a great view of the ocean and listening to the wildlife at night was so peaceful. I would recommend this hotel!
