Couples Swept Away

We have recently just returned home from a very surreal stay at this incredible establishment, I am literally struggling to find words to do this impeccable place justice, just blown away into orbit by the paradise it is, the beach, the cuisine, the friendliness of everyone, the facilities, our room, the service, the watersports, the vibe, it is the most perfect place we have ever stayed and without a doubt we will be looking to return again for sure, thank you so much CSA for a truly memorable experience.

Amazing location on 7 Mile Beach - perfect white sand, you can walk almost forever, safe and secure. The water is pristine, calm in the morning, but more active in the afternoon. Lots of water sports - you can scuba, snorkel, swim, skyglide, all to your heart's content. Friendly atmosphere, feels like family - it's a privilege to be a guest in Jamaica (coming from Canada, we really appreciate the tropical warmth!). Very helpful and accomodating staff, especially if you keep in mind that you are an honoured guest in their beautiful country. Rooms (we had a ground floor Atrium room, 1118, but have also stayed in its sister room, 1119) were spacious, clean, had a relaxed tropical vibe, white with dark wood for contrast. Loved the verandah - a nice hammock to swing in, relaxing couch and lots of cushions. Beautiful private view with lush tropical vegetation. These rooms are close to The Palms, the central restaurant facility, and to the main Lobby. They are halfway in, so you don't hear the bands at night (unless you want to listen in outside, on the verandah!), or the traffic along the main highway at the other end. The gardens are very well maintained - despite Hurricane Melissa, the replanting is well under way, and the orchids hugging the trunks of the palms were starting to bloom when we were there. What a lovely touch - I hope you plant even more of them in the vista along to the ocean ! When we were there (for a fortnight Jan/Feb) we enjoyed blooming hibiscus, ginger, and lots of other Jamaican flora. The grounds staff were very friendly, answered my questions, and obviously took pride in their craftsmanship. To be frank, we are not foodies. But we found the food plentiful, well prepared, with a wide variety available at several locations. We went several times to the French restaurant "Feathers", and the Oriental restaurant "The Lemongrass" for delicious evening meals - advance reservations absolutely required. For casual eating, the "Sea Grapes" had delicious smoothies, local food, lots of vegetables and fruit, and vegetarian options. There's a wide variety of sports options, both on the water and at the sports complex across the highway (don't worry, there's a crossing guard, for those of you who want to relive the primary school days :) Accessibility note: there are a few rooms with a wheelchair accessible ramp, and plenty of others with just a few steps up, which is great. The one suggestion I would make to management is that the washrooms in the main lobby are not accessible - the door is extremely heavy, and there are no grab bars in any of the bathrooms; ditto for the ground floor bathrooms in the Palms. Since these are two heavily used facilities, it would make sense to add accessibility features for your guests. But your staff are very accommodating and understanding, which partly makes up for it. We were thankful to be in Jamaica during the time of the Polar Vortex, which encased Canada and the US in its icy grasp, and even though local temperatures as a results were a bit lower than usual (low to mid 20's) at the resort, we were grateful that we had a beautiful tropical holiday.

Our 10 day vacation landed in your surprise winter storm. Everything was closed. This was our 3rd trip here and all we like to do is water sports and lay on the beach. Obviously none of those were an option. The entertainment team saved the day. I can’t say enough good things about Shania, Marky, Delon and Renaldo. They went above and beyond and made our trip so enjoyable. CSA is lucky to have such a great entertainment team.

I was a little worried about our trip to Jamaica this year after Hurricane Melissa, but those concerns disappeared the moment we got through the airport. This was our eighth visit to Swept Away, and it turned out to be one of the best yet. There is some visible impact from the hurricane, but the island—especially the Negril area—has done an incredible job recovering. At Swept Away, a few trees are gone and some supplies are limited, but nothing that affected our stay in any meaningful way. Our room had been remodeled and felt fresh and welcoming. The service was the best we've experienced since our very first visit, and the food was as wonderful as always. It’s truly impressive how far both the island and the resort have come in such a short time after the storm. A big shout‑out to the staff this year—they were absolutely amazing.

First time at Couples. Overall, It gets a 3. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The unit was clean and comfortable. The green jungle atmosphere was very nice. We had nice massages at the spa. Unfortunately, the food was below average with many “out of stock” items. The resort is very out-dated and many things were broken; 3 out of 4 jacuzzis were out of order. The mens steam room was also not working. It was hard to relax at the beach with constant interruptions of locals trying to sell drugs, jewelry, etc. the drinks were too sweet, watered down, and use of cheap liquor. Couples Resorts really needs to invest in this resort to get it up to par, especially with what they are charging. We won’t be back.

This was a relaxing getaway with plenty of activities available. Beautiful surroundings, clean and comfortable rooms, great food. We met several people who had been there many times. The massage spa was amazing. Enjoyed the sports complex. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

The staff was as always amazing, friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. The rooms were very spacious and air conditioned, which is a must. The different dining experiences were amazing with many different types of meals to choose from. The beach was beautiful and very well maintained and beach bars always ready with a smile to make you whatever drink you desire!!

I must say that Couples Swept Away is by far the best resort we have stayed in Jamaica. We have been to Jamaica 12 times 9 times to Negril. We have stayed at Couples 7 times and Sandals twice. We stayed at Couples Swept Away from December 19 through December 26th, 2025. This resort is amazing from the service, rooms, food and location! Thank you everyone at Couples Swept Away for making our 12th vistit to Negril Jamaica the most memorable above all! We will definitely be back!!

We had an incredible stay, the place and people were amazing, so relaxing and fun. Would absolutely recommend, the one of a kind long gorgeous beach which was raked and kept pristine at every time. The atmosphere is relaxing and fun, and very laid back. Our room on the first floor was recently renovated and kept sparkling clean with fresh towels and nice bathrooms and walk out balcony. Being returning guest and Jamaican expats we enjoyed the delicious meals which were varied to include Jamaican dishes prepared to perfection. A big shout out to the delicious patties, daily soups and the friendly staff at Scotch Bonnet too. The resort is well treed, lush gardens to wander around in and friendly chats with the gardeners who were more than proud of their work. Most important, the friendly warm staff at every moment of our stay, who would not want to return as soon as possible! Thank you for making our stay out of this world, we soon come.

Spent seven days at this all-inclusive on seven mile beach. The beach and the staff make this worthwhile. The rooms are adequate - the ac works great - hot water is tricky. There is limited breakfast room service; however, it makes obtaining coffee convenient. The crowd is older, and the resort caters to that population. The spa is wonderful, and the sports complex across the street from the resort is spacious. The staff that work tirelessly at this resort go beyond expectations, and their efforts should not go unrecognized. Depending on what you are looking for in a resort, this may or not be your ideal vacation location.
