If you are thinking of escaping to an all-inclusive couples only Caribbean resort and wondering which one is the best, well, I have done the sifting and sorting for you here. Planning your best Caribbean vacation can be a tough assignment, especially if you are thinking of an all-inclusive adults only resort.

With over 200 all-inclusive couples only resorts and spas to choose from in the Caribbean, determining which is the best one for you can consume hours of research. Who wants to spend time doing all that? Here I am going to present to you the top 10 based on traveler's reviews. These top ten are ranked by the highest percentage of "excellent" reviews from various sources.

What I have done is sorted through the reviews of these 200 Caribbean all-inclusive adults only resorts to produce a top 10 list. Here you go....


1. Geejam - Jamaica

2. The Caves - Jamaica

3. Banyan Tree Mayakoba - Cancun - Find the Best Deals at hotels.com!

4. Tie between Jamaica Inn - Jamaica, and East Winds Inn - St. Lucia

5. Iberostar Grand Hotel Paraiso - Cancun

6. Laluna - Grenada

7. Le Blanc Spa Resort - Cancun

8. Iberostar Grand Bavaro Hotel - Punta Cana

9. Tie between Jade Mountain - St. Lucia, and Small Hope Bay - Bahamas

10. Iberostar Grand Rose Hall - Jamaica

There you have it, out of the 200+ all -inclusive resorts this is the Caribbean's top 10 ranking of all-inclusive couples only resorts based on reviews. You can check the rates at a few of these at Book It. I just checked the Jamaica Inn website that shows rooms for two starting at $299USD per night and on Bookit they show $260USD. This appears to be a great value as Le Blanc has rooms starting at $605USD.


Just so you know, Geejam isn't a beach resort, so if you want a beach, you might consider some others on this list, I don't know about you, but I go to the Caribbean for the beach, if I wanted to hang around a pool I'd go to Arizona. Anyway, This will give you an unbiased top 10 list, not based on one person's opinion but thousands of actual travelers who've been there and have nothing to gain or lose by giving an honest assessment.

Some of these resorts are smaller intimate boutique resorts and some are large. As you can see Jamaica is the top dog when it comes to the best in all-inclusive resorts and spas, with Cancun a close second. No wonder Howard Hillman ranks Jamaica as the most romantic Caribbean island in his rankings of the best Caribbean islands for vacationing on.



The vast majority of couples only all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean are found on Jamaica, Cancun and Punta Cana and I have ranked the top 10 all inclusive resorts in floridas in each of those places also. Interestingly the most well known names in the business like Sandals and Couples don't have any properties in the top ten.

Iberostar Grand Hotel Paraiso was awarded Trip Advisor's Traveler's Choice award as the best all-inclusive resort in the world (check out their video above). Most travel websites don't show all of Iberostar's resorts, but I have a banner link to Iberostar's homepage on the right hand side of the screen if you want to search for rooms and rates, I also have a link here to Iberostar, be sure to bookmark it for reference in your vacation planning. With 3 resorts in the top 10, Iberostar is clearly the the leader in building high-end luxury all-inclusive couples only resorts, I have ranked all their Caribbean properties here.

If you're interested I have also ranked the top ten Caribbean destinations and provided the corresponding highest rated resort (hotels and all-inclusives).

I hope this list of the top 10 Caribbean all-inclusive adults only resorts helps you to plan the best Caribbean vacation of your life! Incidentally, I have checked some of the websites for these resorts and Hotels.com usually has better rates, you can Search Here for Hotels.com Best Hotel Deals!

P.S. If you'd like to keep posted on my research about the best Caribbean vacations, be sure to use the buttons to "Follow" on Twitter or "Like" on Facebook, plus then I'll know what I'm writing is helpful to you. Thanks!
