Couples Tower Isle

Katusha Clark

Rooms are a bit dated as much of Jamaica is, however my house is also dated. It’s fine :) Common areas/ restaurants/ outdoors are gorgeous and likely where the bulk of the money goes. Amenities are top notch, you will always find something fantastic to eat and drink from poolside burgers to formal dining. The entertainment crew keeps it lively if that’s what you’re into, the spa and grounds crew keeps in serene if that’s more your speed. The Au Natural island is really an amazing feature. There is a swim up bar on one end and a quieter place to relax on the other. They also bring food and entertainment to the island so there’s no need to get dressed to get anything. There is a bathroom and snorkel access as well. We had a jetted tub room overlooking the island and the views were spectacular, though I’m sure the garden views are as well. Everyone we met has been upbeat, energetic and made us feel not only welcome but special. We booked here after the hurricane changed our original plans, but we are already making plans to come back. Thank you CTI!

Our trip was planned for a few weeks after Hurricane Melissa, so we weren’t sure what to expect. We were so happy we didn’t cancel, because it met and even exceeded our expectations. The beach was beyond perfect. Beautiful soft sand, warm water with gentle waves, and cool fish everywhere if you bring goggles and take a moment to look. Breathtaking photo ops everywhere. We loved the water activities like snorkeling and kayaking (included). The food was overall great. The largest space, and the one that is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, is the Patio Restaurant, which is a buffet. The food is fresh and good and varies day to day. There are four smaller restaurants as well as a coffee shop and the “Veggie Bar” (juice, smoothies, and healthy bites). As vegans, we were a bit worried about getting our money’s worth and having fun options, but we were assured that we would be accommodated. Everyone from the front desk to the management/chefs assured us that if the offerings didn’t meet our needs, they would make something custom for us. At first, it was nice to get special attention, but it became a little frustrating to repeatedly explain to different staff (hosts, servers, chefs) what we needed. There was definitely some confusion about the distinction between veganism and vegetarianism. The staff were so kind and went out of their way for us, but we ultimately felt like a burden. We would have preferred if their menus/buffet signs just had a few vegan options that were clearly labeled, the way they did for gluten-free items. We were constantly wondering whether many items such as cornmeal porridge, callaloo rice, ital stew, and baked potatoes were vegan or not. We were most excited about the Veggie Bar, since we love health food, but we were disappointed that the options were sparse - basically limited to hummus, carrots/beets, and one kind of juice per day. We ended up having most of our meals at the buffet, and in the end, we did not go hungry (far from it). We especially loved the food at the theme nights (every Wednesday and Saturday). And the coffee deserves a special mention - Blue Mountain coffee served in abundance from morning to night. Now, the hospitality. Their catch phrase is “Welcome Home,” and we truly felt like we were treated like family. Very special and will keep us coming back.

Wonderful experience at this resort. Food, staff and service was top notch. Buffet was always plentiful and varied. Top shelf alcohol. All the restaurants we tried were delicious. Older resort so some areas are a bit dated but they are currently updating. Not a huge beach but Beautiful and more private feeling. Loads of lounge chairs and spots with varying levels of sun. Rooms were so clean, fridge stocked. Lush garden to explore in the front. We will definitely be back.

Amazing resort! First time staying here. Awesome views, and great staff. Food was fantastic and so was the entertainment in the piano bar. Unfortunately never made it down to the lounge. Once again can't say enough about the staff, so friendly and accommodating. I can see why people return over and over again! Will definitely be going back!

We stayed at this resort for 7 days at the end of January 2025. The rooms were basic but clean, the beds comfy and the AC worked great. This may be a small resort but the views are gorgeous. The staff was great. This was the 9th time I had been to Jamaica, and this resort had the best food! We also signed up for the Couples Rewards and were able to spend a day at the sister resort down the street, Couples San Souci. That was a great perc as it changed it up a little and made us want to try out the other resort too at another time.
