The Shore Club, set on Long Bay Beach in Turks and Caicos, delivers a truly upscale Caribbean retreat.

For the Couple Looking to Unplug
Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios is a family-owned, boutique property that emphasizes privacy and attentive, personalized service. With 55 suites across eight acres and a secluded sandy cove, the resort offers a relaxed, intimate atmosphere and a 700-foot private white-sand beach often cited among the best in the Caribbean. The property’s cottages, beachfront villas and suites are set within lush tropical grounds and provide uninterrupted ocean views. Seven luxury cottages on their own peninsula include private plunge pools, outdoor showers and direct ocean access.
Guests can follow a gentle weekly rhythm of activities—rosé and croquet on the lawn, garden tours, yoga at an ocean pavilion and non-motorized water sports—while dining is an elegant alfresco affair with a daily-changing menu and live music. For restorative treatments, Ocean Spa sits within the cliffs of Cutlass Bay and offers nature-inspired therapies featuring island plants.

For the Honeymoon Couple Who Want Activities and Romance
Eleuthera, a slender Bahamian island with roughly 200 miles of coastline, offers a striking mix of calm Caribbean waters on one side and Atlantic surf on the other—perfect for couples who want both seclusion and adventure. The Cove Eleuthera specializes in activity-rich honeymoons and personalized excursions. The resort features two private white-sand beaches and coordinates snorkeling, scuba diving, paddleboarding, kayaking, surfing and private boat trips where guests can encounter sea turtles, stingrays and even the local swimming pigs.
New experiences at the property include a seahorse excursion to Sweetings Pond, a landlocked lagoon connected to the ocean that supports one of the densest seahorse populations. Island tours highlight natural attractions such as Preacher’s Cave, Queen’s Bath and the Sapphire Blue Hole—a striking inland saltwater lake famed for its dramatic depth. Together, these experiences offer adventurous couples the chance to balance active days with romantic evenings in a secluded tropical setting.
No matter which style fits you—ultimate luxury, quiet seclusion or activity-filled romance—the Caribbean remains a top choice for couples seeking an unforgettable wedding, honeymoon or romantic escape. Choosing the right resort ensures the setting, services and pace all align with the vision you have for your special trip.
