We had a great time here! From David, who escorted us to our table, to Luis, our waiter, and even the food runners, Louie and Alfred, everything was amazing!

Paradise Beach food and drinks were great. The beach was full of seaweed and making getting into the ocean a bit tricky. The pool was a great alternative.

The grounds are beautiful. The service, food and drinks were all excellent. We were a group of 25 and they were very accommodating. Its a bit rocky walking into the water, I would recommend water shoes. A lot of seaweed washed ashore during high tide but I know that can't be helped. Jet Skis were fun, it was nice seeing the clear water further out. The pool ended up being everyone's favorite spot. It was a sold out day but it never felt overcrowded. Taxi to and from Paradise was a breeze.

We had a wonderful time at paradise beach resort! Carlos and Arni( not sure the spelling is correct) were wonderful servers. We never had to wait long for a drink or food. Very family friendly place. Pool and beach were awesome! We would definitely come back!
