the response bore posting.
My wife and I spent a week at "Couples" near Ocho Rios for our honeymoon
two years ago. The intervening time may have changed the situation somewhat,
but we really enjoyed the resort. It's a "one-price" place where the price
includes room, transportation, meals, drinks, sailing, snorkeling, wind
surfing, ping pong, shows every night... The meals always offered a choice
of American food or interesting things such as goat and various local fruits.
If you'd like to try it there is an island about 300 yards offshore which
is reserved strictly for nude use. The water is clear and warm and a real
joy to swim in (at least after you get used to New Jersey ocean).
Whether or not you stay at Couples, don't miss Dunn's River Falls. It's
a side tour included in Couples' package, and is a climb up a waterfall
that is really fun. Just make sure that you remember to take some money
to tip your guide with. We got so used to carrying *nothing* but our
bathing suits that we forgot and felt bad when the tour ended.
It was a great week (which, incidentally, we followed with a week
at Disney World) where everyone you meet is also on their honeymoon.
If you'd like more detail, just ask.
