You would be forgiven for thinking that Virgin Holidays and naturist holidays were not necessarily synonymous.
That certainly is not the case now! In fact there are two, couples only, all inclusive Virgin Holidays resorts on the Caribbean island of Jamaica that actually have naturist areas!
The award-winning Couples Sans Souci is renowned for its cuisine and first-class service. Sans Souci is French for 'without a care', and what could be more appropriate for a laid-back holiday in Jamaica, especially in a resort of this quality that caters for naturists?
Set into a pretty, 35-acre hillside garden that leads to 2 white sand beaches, one of them naturist, the resort offers you a blissful retreat. It is an over 18, couples only resort, situated on a golden beach 4 miles east of Ocho Rios.
