That’s it. It’s the sound when all other sounds are stripped away. When there’s nothing left but the gentle rhythmic lapping of the water as it teases the shoreline. And the occasional rustle in the palms from this breeze that keeps caressing you, making the droplets of salt water on your skin dance ever so slightly. You can hear your heart. When was the last time you listened to your heart?

Abe Issa, the father of modern Jamaican tourism, convinced his father, Elias Issa, to venture into the hotel industry and purchase the Myrtle Bank Hotel in Kingston in 1943. Abe thrived in the hotel industry, and continued to expand his influence. As a result of continuous remarks from guests of Myrtle Bank expressing the desire for a resort hotel on the north coast, Abe set out to make it happen as only he could.
In 1948, Abe began to build Tower Isle Hotel, and in January 1949, after 365 days straight of intense manpower, Tower Isle opened its doors. Word spread quickly and Tower Isle soon became a popular Hollywood hangout. Stage and screen stars, sports and political figures frequented the resort. Walt Disney, actress Eva Gabor, screen sensation Debbie Reynolds, boxer Joe Louis and playwright Noel Coward are just a few that were drawn to the old world charm of the resort. Even Princess Margaret stayed at the resort on one of her many visits to the island.
Tower Isle established the start of a new era of tourism in Jamaica. It also became the first resort to be open year round, thus creating a summer season where there had not been one before. In 1955, Abe Issa was appointed chairman of the Jamaica Tourist Board, and from 1955 to 1963 he led “The Golden Age of Tourism” in Jamaica.
During these years Abe contemplated the concept of a pre-paid Jamaican vacation and began researching the idea. In 1978 he turned the concept into a reality and pioneered the all-inclusive concept in Jamaica – turning Tower Isle into the first all-inclusive resort for couples only. Located in vibrant Ocho Rios, the resort was aptly named Couples Ocho Rios. In 1984, after a rich and full life, Abe Issa passed away. Now, 31 years after the inception of the first Couples Resort, the company has infused $30 million into Couples Ocho Rios and renamed our grand lady Couples Tower Isle. It’s clear that Abe has left behind a legacy and the all-inclusive concept in Jamaica has flourished.
Incomparable amenities. Endless activities. Unlimited options. Whether you come to Couples Resorts for a wedding, honeymoon or everyday escape, you’ll encounter an array of indulgences at your fingertips. From modern conveniences like satellite TV and free WiFi to old-fashioned adventures like horseback riding and snorkeling, you’ll never run out of reasons to come to Couples again and again.
