Dreams Resorts are great at weddings! They do a lot of weddings and really know what they are doing! So, I do like to offer them as options when they also meet all of your other wants, which I think this one does. This, however, is not adult only, it is a family friendly resort, so keep that in mind.
Located in the beautiful Playa El Jobo on the Northern coast of Guanacaste, Dreams Las Mareas Costa Rica features an expansive palm-studded beach and lush tropical jungles. Dreams Las Mareas boasts a contemporary design with tasteful authentic décor. Surrounding the resort is a fisherman community and the mountain range of Guanacaste, which offers guests with a variety of exciting tours and excursions. Kids and teens can mingle at our Explorer’s Club for Kids and Core Zone Teens Club, while adults can relax poolside, enjoy a romantic beach dinner or unwind at the Dreams Spa by Pevonia®.

I absolutely love this option! I just visited this resort in January, and there is so much going on at this resort, your guests will not get board. They have entertainment going on throughout the day at the main pool area, a show every night in the theater and after that you can head to the Gypsy Disco night club, which requires a password to get in!
There are plenty of dining and bar options, and the beach area is great! They also have man made cenotes within the resort, which are really neat!
​
Step into a world of luxury surrounded by a tropical oasis at the all-inclusive Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen. Immerse yourself in an ambiance unique to the Yucatan peninsula with our seven shimmering pools, including three manmade cenotes and one interior beach lagoon. All 485 lavish suites offer a contemporary experience with an earthy feel including luxurious amenities, stunning views, a private soaking tub on the terrace and Unlimited-Luxury™

Jamaica
The only two adult only options that I would recommend for what you are wanting in Jamaica are two Sandals Properties. Sandals are going to be a little different than the other resorts we have looked at.
1) Their group contracts start at only 5 rooms (the other resorts start at 10 rooms)
2) They have more things included in the rate, like motorized water sports, land sports, green fees, and airport transfers.
3) There is not tipping allowed at these resorts (exceptions are for butlers and spa personnel)

And nowhere else is this more evident than in our brand-new South Seas Village, where you can swim up to an exotic Rondoval—the first of their kind, anywhere. So come discover the seductive pleasures of water in a secluded destination where every luxury has been created for pure bliss.
