Couples Resort & Algonquin Spa

Literally the best experience possible. I worked at couples resort over the winter from December 27th to the end of March, I had to return to reality unfortunately. The owner is amazing, one if the most genuine and caring people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.  The staff were amazing. I was there for 3 months but it felt like I had known everyone for a life time. 3 meals a day, the lunches were meh but dinners and breakfast were amazing. They keep you fed, you get your own room own shower own toilet own sink and fridge. This is the Golden nugget of resort work experience... The bar will be set high and will drop low if you decide to leave this dreamland and head west! But I strongly suggest everyone to travel the world! 


In short... An amazing place to work. Amazing people. Amazing food amazing views. Top notch service and professionalism I loved every single moment if it and if you have the opportunity to work here do it and don't even think about it! 

An adult only romantic getaway for those that seek to find a beautiful wilderness not far from home.

With a seasonally developing menu and the resorts personal gardens of fresh produce just a walk from the kitchen, there is a great pride in not only the standing menu, but also the daily creations that bring embracing emotional delight to your pallet.

From the early hours of the morning to the late hours of the evening, the kitchen provides a welcoming feel to staff and guest alike.

Headed by (my personal opinion) and incredible Chef, I was privileged to train, and learn, and build as a person while surrounded by an amazing team.

The hardest part of working here is the semi seclusion of its location, but I still encourage those that get the opportunity to seek it and take it.

the best place for joband safe money, you feel as home there, all the staff are very friendly, everyone helps each other. Very clean private rooms for each staff, in your room under the password there is everything for life, your own shower, a large bed, a sofa, a TV, a fridge, air conditioning. Three meals a day are free(ALWAYS meat,fish, pasta,rice,salads), a gym, a sauna, free laundry and dryer,all this options for free, ITS SO GOOD!!!!The hotel owner takes care of every employee.I worked here for more than two years, and I will say in all seriousness, THESE ARE VERY EXCELLENT WORKING CONDITIONS for the employees! Appreciate and respect everything that the hotel owner does for you, it is worth a lot!!!

Giving your outmost respect to your coworkers especially guests (they have come from all over the world, and they chose you). After a few weeks you build a second family, you live with each other laugh with each other, and love one another. That's what the Couples Resort magic does. This is a dream job, treat it as such and don't take it for granted. Enjoy 5 star Complimentary meals 3 times a day. Enjoy no more traffic. Your work is beside your new home. Complimentary passes to Algonquin Park, canoes, kayaks, tennis, and many more activities to accompany your free time.

I can honestly say that this is such a positive place to work for! The food is amazing. Definitely keep in mind you’re fairly isolated working here, the pay is really good for the accommodations you are receiving. There was a lot of drama in the past, especially in the kitchen but those people have been relieved of their duties, we have great management and such a positive team 

There were some issues in the cleaning department as well as the kitchen revolving around work place drama. The maintenance department had no such issues. Be aware that if you either do not drive or do not come with your own vehicle, you may feel isolated.

maintenaning cleanliness sorrounding

It was good to work if you need to save money but definitely got toxic after a while. It’s nice on the lake can take kayaks and go for hikes. Staff housing is nice you have your own room and bathroom and all meals were provided but definitely a temporary place bc of toxic environment.

I enjoyed it but was a 40 minute drive there in no matter what the weather conditions, freezing rain, blizzard you name it. Not safe to be driving on the highway in those conditions. Plus driving golf carts to the rooms in -30 or less was not fun.

Do yourself a favor.  Work elsewhere!
High staff turnover. Unprofessional work atmosphere. Low rate of pay; high accommodation cost scheme. 
Not a place for you; if you have professional training.
