When it comes to romantic beach getaways, there’s something to be said for booking an all-inclusive experience. You don’t have to sign a bill at every turn, everything is taken care of for you (from restaurant reservations to your automatic cocktail refill on the beach), and there’s no need to worry about transportation—everything you need is on-site. But, while there are limitless all-inclusive options among the Caribbean’s most accessible islands, not all are created equal. We’ve taken the liberty of narrowing the field to the region's top eight all-inclusives for couples. Check in—and bliss out.

Rosewood Tucker's Point's obvious lures aside -- four pools, a private beach, a championship golf club, a tranquil spa, four restaurants, and spacious rooms featuring million-dollar views -- it’s the fine-tuned details that make this 200-acre property truly spectacular. For example, in the library just behind the lobby, old photos of Bermudian cricket matches, cabinets filled with china, and an antique Oriental rug feel like a swanky 1920s living room frozen in time. Rosewood is easily one of Bermuda’s top luxury resorts, but the rates are also higher here than anywhere else on the island. But perfection (or near-perfection) has its price, and at Tucker’s Point, it’s well worth it. here

Interiors here are designed by fashion icon Oscar de la Renta, and the 30 rooms feature comfortable four-poster beds with crisp, white Frette linens and unique wicker canopies. Bathrooms have coral floors, deep hot tubs, large stand-up glass showers, and toiletries from L'Occitane -- about as good as it gets in the D.R. The best part: the nightly turndown includes a drawn bath with floating red flower petals and tea lights. Tortuga Bay's luxury Six Senses Spa is one of the D.R.'s best.

This luxury boutique is heavy on style and refinement, with British Colonial design and 28 huge multi-room suites (they start at 1,080 square feet) featuring kitchens, terraces, and high-end bathrooms. Property highlights include a lovely, tranquil pool, personal beachfront service, a small but spectacular spa, and one of the Providenciales’ most romantic dinner spots. However, its remote location on the point of the beautiful, 12-mile Grace Bay beach -- while peaceful and quiet -- makes it necessary for guests to rely on expensive taxis or car rentals to explore the island.

One of Jamaica's most romantic escape (for adults only), the Caves' 11 unique, private cottages and suites are tucked along lush garden paths and dramatic seaside cliffs (there's no beach) carved with steep stairways down to the water and into incredible grottos.. A top-shelf bar, an Aveda spa, free cooking classes, and intimate, incredibly attentive service make it Jamaica's best all-inclusive. High-quality food celebrates local ingredients, and the scene is laid-back and bohemian -- suited to travelers who appreciate outdoor showers and artful decor in favor of conventional luxury.

For something a little different, why not consider Panama? This beautiful country that’s rich in biodiversity is home to some great resorts, beaches and snorkeling.

Although over the water villa Carribean options are still less plentiful than in Asia and the Pacific, the good news is that there are some stunning Bora Bora style huts in the Caribbean, and what’s more the range of choices is increasing. So if you were wondering, are there overwater bungalows in the Caribbean? – the answer is yes! here

St. Lucia is one of the best destinations for those hoping to avoid an all-inclusive. On the island, staying in smaller, independent accommodation is the norm- St. Lucia is home to over 200 boutique hotels, compared to just under ten large-scale resorts. The boutique hotel scene is bursting with tropical, plantation-style rooms with a Spanish influence and an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living. Those seeking a private, oceanfront villa will fall in love with Sugar Beach which is nestled in the valley between mountains on a secret cove.

Martinique tends to fly under the radar when looking for the Caribbean getaway. Though Martinique has relatively fewer boutique hotel options than some of its Caribbean counterparts, the ones that are located on this beautiful island are worth the trip. In our opinion, French COCO should be considered a Martinique staple; gorgeous gardens of lemongrass and jasmine that attract butterflies are just icing on the cake when it comes to this small luxury hotel.

This two-story jungle hotel only has 17 rooms, so you will never feel overcrowded. You’ll be free to enjoy the serenity of nature in a calm and quiet atmosphere at your own pace and can visit their partnering fishing village for some cultural immersion. They also have a cocktail and tapas lounge that previous guests rave about, so foodies might want to start packing now.
