The hotel

Surrounded by coconut trees within 18 acres of natural, lush tropical gardens, Couples Negril is nothing short of idyllic. Set on a secluded stretch of pure sugar-white sand, this couples only resort is an attractive, contemporary hotel right on the shores of Bloody Bay. There’s plenty to do for those who enjoy more than just a soaking up the sun, with endless activities including snorkelling and scuba diving. Alternatively enjoy simply splashing about in one of the pools or lazing on the beach. Be sure to venture out on the complimentary Couples Catamaran cruise to see the sunset and the pirate caves. The restaurants at Couples Negril are formidable, each one serving authentically prepared traditional dishes ranging from Caribbean to Asian cuisine. Otaheite offers intimate Caribbean dining in a relaxing romantic setting — get your reservation in early though as the tables fill up fast! For a more casual setting, the Cassava Terrace is sure to impress you and your taste buds. A delicious buffet restaurant offering a wide variety of culinary treats, you’ll be spoilt for choice. The low-key yet lively atmosphere at Couples Negril Resort adds to its popularity. Entertainment is provided every night of the week, look out for the talented pianist, he will be sure to get you up for a sing-a-long and a dance!

Had the most romantic and beautiful break away with my partner in January for my birthday. Couples Negril was right at the heart of that, thanks to our surroundings being full of plants, nature and of course the beach. The staff were so friendly, funny and polite. The food and drink was all beautiful with us especially liking the a la carte element of every restaurant. Less waste, better quality food, and a much more laid back, romantic way of dining at an all inclusive resort. The extras included in the hotel price were excellent. The glass bottom boat ride and the snorkelling was lovely, but the highlight was the catamaran cruise. Great party atmosphere, lots of rum punch, and then jumping in and swimming around the caves, also sliding off a slide into the sea! Made so many lovely friends too just floating around the pool bar. The Caribbean way of life is so laid back, relaxed and free- exactly as it should be on holiday, and something the Couples Negril did so wonderfully well. Read less

OVER ..THE …TOP… This was our 7th visit to Couples Negril and once again not in any way disappointed. Here’s the thing.. If you want a vacation and literally ALL YOU HAVE TO DO is show up- then this is your resort.. The biggest decision you may have to make in a typical day is Beach or Pool first. The resort is small and very intimate- yet you never feel crowed, rushed or have to wait for anything. Rashaun in Guest services - outstanding Tennison - Grill/beach bar - outstanding Dean- breakfast /lunch - outstanding Giovani- (Geo) entertainment staff - outstanding Richard entertainment staff - outstanding Amanda- entertainment staff - adorable and outstanding Kenisha- server/ -sweetest and outstanding Gordon- the GM of operations - nicest guy ever. This is just a few of the many incredible employees that work at Couples Negril. The beach is soft white sand - no seaweed The beach vendors need our support - so try to purchase any gifts you need from them. Although it is not encouraged and most likely frowned upon PLEASE bring plenty of ones to tip whenever you can. We gave fives and tens for meals- IN NO WAY are you treated differently if you do or do not tip. However when you meet these people and see how hard they work - you’re compelled to do something. We have our March 2025 visit booked! Book at least 7 days - as remember we lose day one and day seven for travel. Truly can’t say enough about this fine, well run and most loving resort! You will love it- Read less

We just got home from our first trip to Couples Negril. I have been to several resorts and enjoyed the adult, laid back vibe at this resort. My husband and I went with several friends and renewed our vows while there. I appreciated that everything was so organized and we didn't have to do much other than check in and enjoy. We really loved the beach and the beautiful sand. Our room was perfect and everything was within walking distance. My husband is not a beach lover but enjoyed our time here and said he would do a return visit which is a huge WIN! Read less

Just returned from our fifth stay at couples negril. We like this resort due to it's size and walkability. Rooms are basic but very clean, employees are friendly and helpful, and food is good. Our favorite is the Lychee where we dined twice and our least favorite has always been the Otheaite (where you need a reservation). Not all the bars have the premium liquor and we always go to the piano bar where they have a good selection. Plenty of activities if you are so inclined. The beach and pool are excellent and you never have to worry about a lounge chair or getting shade if needed. Red flag service was very good at both the pool and beach. We took a private catamaran cruise which I highly recommend. Shout out to Alex at water sports who was a very personable and helpful young man who provided a lot of information during the cruise. He made it even more enjoyable. The only negative I have is that there is not a comfortable chair in the room or on the balcony. Please Please remedy this as it's hard to always have to lie on the bed. Check in and out were a breeze. Read less
