There are no dining options at the hotel after 7:00 p.m., although there is a nearby restaurant that stays open later. The receptionist isn't very friendly, but maybe she was just having a bad day.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed at Paradise Island expecting a relaxing and well-managed experience, but it was the opposite. I checked in on Sunday, and not once was housekeeping done during my stay. The hairs on the shower drain from the day I arrived were still there at checkout. Staff showed little initiative in addressing concerns, and overall service felt inattentive and indifferent. For the price and reputation of this property, the lack of cleanliness and basic hospitality is simply unacceptable. I cannot recommend this hotel and will not be returning.

I like that is private, the beach is beautiful, but I didn’t like the limited food options, and that the bar close so early, if you go there in please be mindful that after 6:30pm there is nothing going on, unless is Saturday. The information/ communication needs to get better, if I’m coming to a new place I expect the employee that you see the most have basic information on what tours they offer, time, cost, or if you don’t want to talk, has brochures ready to handle to the new guest. Sell what you have , at every turn. The rooms needs maintenance a/c got condensed on the first day , if you dropped them under 26 it gets condensed and started leaking.

Very quite boutique hotel, I like that. And very convenient for aquatic activities and tours. It has room for improvement with the restaurant staff very friendly and courteous, but to keep up with the demand when they’re busy, needs to improve. Overall a very nice experience. Will go back.

It is a very limited hotel with few amenities. The relevant value is the beach which is beautiful and good for swimming and enjoying a good time.

I enjoyed staying there and would definitely stay again. The room was very clean and the staff was friendly and attentive to anything you needed. The only downside I have is that the water pressure in the shower seemed to be on and off and not constant. Other than that I enjoyed every bit of it. The restaurant in the hotel was affordable and the food was amazing, please don’t miss the breakfast in the morning it was 10/10.
