Couples Sans Souci

This was our first time at a couples resort and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The AU NATUREL beach wasn’t something we were tempted to try but the rest of the resort was exactly as we had wished, albeit the main beach and swimming area could have been slightly bigger. We were allocated a room in block E and whilst we had paid for a garden view, rooms in block E appear to have the larger balconies (two chairs, table, bed and a chaise lounge style sofa) and we could see the sea, albeit there were a few trees between us and the ocean. We were really pleased with our accommodation, with the room being well equipped and light, the bathroom had a large shower and twin basins, all very nicely decorated and cleaned daily by Sheryl to a very high standard. There’s a very good choice of food and I downloaded the app which enabled us to book tables at the Casanova and Belle Vista on several occasions and also get room service, which we enjoyed on a couple of occasions, having dinner on our balcony which combined with the personalised mini bars works very well. We didn’t indulge too much in the evening entertainment but that which we experienced was alright. One reason for choosing this resort was the golf and we played six times. The course is nice, it isn’t the best I’ve played but a good holiday course with some challenging holes, all of which have fairly small greens. Whilst the green fees are included in the cost of the hotel, you’re charge $50 (US) per a person, per round for a buggy and caddy, which is compulsory and booking as a two ball gets you one buggy and one caddy for $100. Our caddy was Jason who was great, didn’t try to select my clubs, just pointed us in the right direction and helped reading putts, which is all I require for a holiday caddy. One thing to note, when arranging your golf there’s no option to select a tee time, you just book golf and have to be at reception by 8am for 8:15 collection (one tip: breakfast in the restaurant isn’t served till 7:30 but you can have it delivered to your room from 6:30) and the planned pick up time is 1:30 but you could have finished golf by 12 and the course isn’t part of your all inclusive package, so any drinks and food is payable, though the bus drivers always tried their best to collect us earlier and normally did. We took advantage of the free trip to Dunns River Falls and paid for a raft trip, all of which we enjoyed. The hotel is roughly two hours from the airport which is slightly longer than we’d like but it’s via the coast road, so there’s some nice scenery. All in all, a very enjoyable holiday. Read less

Very well run resort with a lovely nude section. It was like going on a cruise ship with no ship, but good entertainment and lovely warm weather. The food was excellent. There was the main restaurant plus two premium restaurants and a lunch buffet at the nude section, all inclusive. The nude beach had good shade and plenty of beach lounges that were clean and well maintained. The beach was at the outfall of a river and was quite rocky. Beach shoes are needed on this beach. The main beach is sandy. There were three or four pools with hot tubs, and lots of little surprise areas. We plan to go back. Read less

Couples Resorts are our favorite places to visit. They have such a huge number of repeaters (and ones with many trips under their belt) for a reason. We were huge fans of Couples Negril and decided to try out San Souci based on a friends recommendation. We absolutely loved it and it was our favorite trip yet. They wow us every time. The staff was amazing, food was great and the resort was BEAUTIFUL. We are already planning our next trip and CSS is going to be where we start going regularly now. Read less

We were moved to couples san souci after previously booking tower isle a week before we were due to fly. I am so glad we were moved I have never been to such a beautiful place. We visited from the UK for or our 1st wedding anniversary. Transfer The transfer took just under two hours but out driver made the holiday so much fun from the very beginning. He was telling us about the history of everywhere we passed which was really interesting. Staff The staff couldn't do enough for you they were great fun and so friendly. Definitely like a family away from home. Food All three restaurants were very tasty. The food had lots of flavour. Casanova was a favourite for us but we enjoyed everything Hotel We stayed in a beachfront suite overlooking the lawn and sea. I couldn't have asked for a better location. There were always sun beds available by the pool and on the beach no matter what time of day you headed down Excursions We booked excursions to do Dunns river blue hole and reggae hill. This is a must it was amazing! Blue hole was out favourite and the food at reggae hill was fab. Dunns river is a lot more commercialised but still worth a visit Water sports We booked a private picnic and snorkelling boat trip. This was incredible! Our guides Michael and Dwight made the time out on the boat feel so special. Read less
