An introduction to Couples Swept Away

If you want to come away and get totally swept off your feet, you've found the place that'll accomplish it perfectly. Couples Swept Away is the ultimate Caribbean fantasy, spilling right on to a slice of paradise where there's no crowds, no agenda – just pristine sands and balmy waters. It's bed to beach living at its best. Serenely tucked away into gorgeous natural surroundings with seemingly endless tropical gardens, this place is drenched in romance – a hidden hideaway that you'll want to keep a secret. Those in the know come here time and time again to shake off the stresses of everyday life, so come and join the club. They've got everything you could ever need to unwind here down to a tee. Burn off your tensions at the sports complex including saunas, steam rooms, lap pool and all sorts of classes from yoga to kickboxing. Take the plunge and set off in a kayak or scuba dive in the glittering underwater gardens. Or if you'd rather keep your toes dry, hop onto the glass bottom boat and view it all from above. Treat yourself to a soothing massage or reviving facial at the tranquil Oasis Spa, a real escape for your mind, body and soul. It'll be hard to move from the pool though. Like a tropical lagoon, you'll find secluded nooks where you can swim in peace and sunbeds sprinkled between the bougainvillea-strewn foliage. Alternatively, you can take a dip in our new pool too - there's a swim-up bar at one end and a whirlpool at the other. There is a flag system on the beach where once you place the flag in the sand the waiter or waitress will take your drinks order and bring it to you while you relax on the sunbed. Also once a day a snack of a fruit kebab will also be brought to your sunbed along with cold towels to assist with a relaxing cool down. You'll also fall in love with the food here. From international dishes to sizzling local specialities, it's first-rate fare that'll have your taste buds tingling in anticipation. Dine in Feathers, the gourmet restaurant, chill out beneath the sun, moon and stars at the al fresco beach grill or try the open-air dining room. We can't go without mentioning the beautiful bedrooms. Opening out onto large verandas among lush gardens, they have a contemporary Jamaican air with elegant shutters and cool terracotta tiled floors. If all this sounds nice, imagine what it's like to be here. Come and live the dream. This couples-only hotel combines a great place to escape and unwind or be very active utilising the excellent sports and fitness facilities. Couples Swept Away is for couples over 18 years only.

Everything about this resort was FANTASTIC!
The food, rooms, activities, beach & staff were first class, second to none!

It was that good we booked the day we came back for this New Year 2006.
