Venue Overview
Sans Souci, meaning “without worry”, has long been considered the Jewel of Jamaica. Sweeping guests into a kaleidoscope of natural beauty, island atmosphere and romance, it’s hard not to fall in love with the property and with each other. A hidden gem set majestically against emerald mountains and Caribbean Sea, this Ocho Rios resort on Jamaica’s sunny northern Caribbean coast exudes a sense of solitude and intimacy.
Nestled on a hillside to afford spectacular ocean views from each of its 150 suites, Couples Sans Souci is a tropical paradise. Charming and yet elegant, its suites have French or sliding doors leading to private, furnished balconies or patios. Beautifully decorated in shades of royal blue and cream and accented by island artwork and accessories.
The property’s lush foliage and smaller footprint allows guests to lose themselves exploring its secluded stone pathways and storybook trails. No matter which way the path winds, past colonial-style buildings and secret pavilions that extend over the ocean on the cliffs, you’re never more than a few steps away from stunning sea views.
Imagine yourself with the sound of the ocean below, as one of our expert therapists melts away your stress with a deep tissue massage. It's delights like these that make Sans Souci’s signature spa services so enticing—and have garnered us the honor of being named the “Best Caribbean Spa” by Travel + Leisure.
Venture into a beautiful dream, and experience romance without interruption.
