Grand Lido Sans Souci Hotel Ocho Rios, Ocho Rios Hotels, Jamaica

This luxury resort was awarded the AAA Four Diamond rating – is set against the backdrop of the tranquil blue Caribbean, surrounded by lush, perfumed gardens. Designed for those who seek a vacation offering the refinement of a bygone era without stinting on modern amenities, Sans Souci provides an unsurpassed level of lavish accommodations and personalized service. This Luxury All–Inclusive resort is for couples, singles, and adult families, 16 years and over and is celebrated for its elegance, warmth and vibrancy.

Grand Lido Sans Souci is located just outside Ocho Rios, about 2 hour, 70–mile (104 kilometers) drive east of the airport at Montego Bay.

Here under the bright blue Ocho Rios sky the lush mountains slope all the way down to where the white sand beach is softly caressed by the Caribbean Sea, creating one of the most unique and romantic landscapes anywhere in the world. Sans Souci is a playfully elegant beach resort. One hundred forty six luxurious suites gently blended into Ocho Rios' lush landscape. Mineral springs bubble in hidden grottos, where as legend has it, their natural, romantic powers wash away stress and tension and replace it with revitalized romantic energy. At our intimate European style spa enjoy a massage, facial, reflexology and body scrub while you overlook the gentle Caribbean. Relaxing, stress free and of course, included.

Pump it up in our fully equipped fitness center. Wander our lush grounds where giant trees reach for the clouds. You never know what you'll find as you explore our tropical gardens. A giant chess set right out of Alice in Wonderland. A whirlpool filled with natural mineral water. A hammock for two gently rocking beneath a swaying palm. A beach bar where premium cocktails flow endlessly and jerk chicken and pork sizzle on the grill to the island beat of reggae.

Dining

And while awards are nice, it's the day to day adherence to rigid standards that gives the Grand Lido resorts our consistent taste of excellence. Chefs trained and imported from the finest kitchens of Europe. French, Italian, Caribbean, Japanese, American and Continental cuisine. Fresh pasta. Fine wines. Desserts that are barely legal. And as always, no tipping allowed. Not ever. Breakfast and lunch buffets are lavish and beautifully presented.
