As you know, our newsletter's "feature story" section is typically reserved for articles which provide great love advice, ideas and tips for keeping the romance alive, as well as inspirational love stories.  This month, we've done one better, and created an interactive Web site that's specially designed to inspire you to bring more romance into your life. Please enjoy the feature story describing our new site's unique features and capabilities below, and be sure to check out the new Couples Beach Lounge.

COUPLES RESORTS CREATES NEW DESTINATION FOR REKINDLING ROMANCE WITH
COUPLES BEACH LOUNGE WEBSITE

Have you ever wanted to send your partner a message in a bottle? Or struggled trying to prepare a romantic dinner to surprise your sweetie? The brand new Couples Beach Lounge Web site gives you the ability to do both of those things, and offers pages of romantic tips and ideas as well.
 
The new Web site’s “love hut” section contains tips on how to write love letters, and then lets you send one to your partner as a virtual message in a bottle. Under the “hanky panky” section of the site you will find a Love Meter game that rates how romantic you are on a day-to-day basis. Another highlight of the site is the “Romantic 101” section, which contains tips and articles straight from Couples Resorts’ Chief Romance Officer.
 
“We wanted to create a place where all couples passionate about love and romance can go for inspiration to keep their connection strong and healthy,” said Randy Russell, Senior Vice President, but you may know him better as the Chief Romance Officer® of Couples Resorts. “Since we know that both men and women are looking for ways to be romantic, the site provides not just tips and romantic ideas, but also tools that both can use to help keep the romance alive in their relationship.”Also in “Romance 101,” some of you may recognize Corporate Executive Chef, Stefan Spath, who makes his Web site debut with new webisodes that bring the recipes of our newsletter’s popular ‘Just for Two’ section to life.

“I always enjoy creating the newsletter recipes, as they give guests the opportunity to both create and enjoy intimate meals at home,” said Corporate Executive Chef of Couples Resorts, Stefan Spath. “Cooking is my passion, and I’m very excited that we’ve created a way which will hopefully make it easier for couples to enjoy my recipes and Jamaican flavors, even when they can’t experience our creations first-hand at the resort.”

The new Couples Beach Lounge also offers links to all of our different social networking sites, which will play a large role in our new fundraiser, launching during the month of November. During that month, Couples Resorts will donate one dollar to the Issa Trust Foundation for every person that becomes a fan of Couples Resorts’ Chief Romance Officer on Facebook, decides to be follower of Couples Resorts on Twitter (@CouplesResorts), registers as a member of the Couples Resorts Message Board, or subscribes to Couples Resorts’ YouTube channel.

The mission of the Issa Trust Foundation is to provide a system of prevention, health promotion, education and other services to promote the well-being and development for the people of Jamaica. By conducting annual medical missions and supplying school materials ranging from basic pencils and paper to computers and libraries, the Issa Trust Foundation strives to create a safe, nurturing and healthy environment for families and provide children with a foundation in basic skills.
