One hotel that caught my eye (for reasons that will soon become apparent) is Couples Tower Isle (formerly Couples Ocho Rios), located 5 miles east of Ocho Rios. Apparently there's a nearby island (Tower Isle) that's au naturel and where everybody goes to let it all hang out (so to speak).

It looks like they have some really nice reviews: http://travel.yahoo.com/p-reviews-47265 ... .Qr2PiphQB

Looks like it's off the beaten path.

By the looks of things it is on the ohter side of St James Ave - local side rather than tourist side.


I would say it was about a 20 mins walk to Margaritaville from there. But it is a straight road so you can stagger quite easily.
