We (my husband and I, both mid 40s) just got back from a very relaxing week at the Paradisus. Overall we're pretty satisfied but don't go expecting chicness or glamour - it's a well tended, clean and pleasant place with nice gardens and beach, gracious staff, and above gives a great bang for your buck. However, after reading so many... more

I stayed at the Paradisus from 6th August for two weeks with my fiancée and we both fell in love with the place. We stayed in block 22 (listed in a previous review as being one to avoid) and absolutely loved it, it was extremely romantic and different to anywhere we have stayed before, the view from our balcony was... more

Had to respond to the moaner Not at all shabby unless you are looking for something to moan about. (We are in Cuba where they are paid £8 a month for god's sake not the USA) This has been said before but what makes this 5 star is the lovely surroundings and gardens, the smile and hello by all the... more

On the whole, our experiece at the Paradisus was fantastic. We went there to get married and the wedding ceremony was beautiful. The food was always outstanding and the accommodation very clean. Being a young couple, I missed the fun that some less exclusive hotels offer, however, I should have expected this with it being a 5 star hotel. The... more

Myself and my partner spent a fornight at this wonderful resort in June this year. The staff are amazing, nothing is any trouble and the service is first class. We love our food and drink and both were of the best quality we have sampled on an all inclusive resort for a while. Do book the restaurants when you arrive... more

We have just returned from this hotel having enjoyed 2 excellent weeks. On first impressions the room seemed a bit dated especially the bathroom however it catered for our every need and was spotlessly clean! The beds were large and comfy. Each room has a mini bar that is restocked on a daily basis, also cable TV, coffee maker and... more

We stayed at Paradisus May-June 2008. It was an absolutely brilliant holiday. We emailed ahead to get a room/ book restuarants and were given one exactly to our requirments by Yunaki on reception- very helpful and immediate responses to email/ queries. On arrival to hot towels, champagne and smiles we settled into the fab lobby scahirs to wait for out... more
