The 21-year-old actress - who has just won Sexiest Female in the British Soap Awards - jetted off to the sun-kissed island with her Westlife boyfriend Kian Egan.
But poor Kian found he had a rival for Jodi's affections - in the shape of Flipper the Dolphin.
An onlooker said: "Kian and Jodi decided that they really wanted to swim with the dolphins during their holiday.
"It's a magical experience and so many people travel to the island for that reason.
"So Kian and Jodi decided to give it a go.
"Dolphins communicate with each other using sound waves and bodily contact.
"If your heart is beating fast then they can sense that you are excited.
"And Flipper was really taken with Jodi. He came right up close to her and was larking about in the water with her.
"He got so close that Jodi was able to touch his nose and give him a kiss. It was a fantastic experience for both Kian and Jodi."
The pair looked very relaxed in their sandals and sarongs as they chilled out on the Hawaiian sands. But there was still no sign of the rumoured engagement ring.
Earlier this week there was talk that Kian was going to pop the question during their tropical break - in spite of the fact the pair have always insisted that they are both too young to get hitched.
Since she left teen soap Hollyoaks Jodi has been concentrating on setting herself up as a serious actress - so far without results.
An insider said: "She has tried for a role in EastEnders but didn't get it and also headed off to LA to try and make it there.
"Unfortunately she was back after two weeks - but acting is pretty much like that, you can be out of work for a long periods between jobs."
At least that leaves Jodi plenty of time to lie about on beaches with her boyfriend.
