There are several excellent places for couples in Jamaica.  Some of
them are Couples, Sandals, Hedonism II and Eden II.

My wife and I just returned from Eden II and we loved it!  It is
an all-inclusive package (meals, drinks, entertainment and even
cigarettes and cigars).  It cost us $1100 each which included round
trip air fare from Raleigh.

The place has tennis (with resident pros), wind surfing, sailing,
snorkeling, scuba diving, water skiing, and free instruction for
all of the above.  They also have paddle boats, nautilus equipment,
hot tubs and a swimming pool.  Horseback riding and golf are also
offered off-site (but they provide free transportation and pay
all fees).

The food and entertainment are both outstanding.  There is
live entertainment and dancing every night.  Most evenings have a
theme.  For example, one evening is a toga party on the beach at which 
steak and lobster are served and live entertainment provided.

The thing we liked most about it is that you need no  money
once you get there (except for buying souviners and tipping
porters at the airport and caddies at the golf course).

Eden II is in Ocho Rios.  I don't have an address for you but suggest
you ask a travel agent about it.

One more thing, this is a couples only resort, no children, no
singles.  You meet lots of interesting couples during your stay.

Have fun wherever you end up going!
