"My wife and I stayed at Port Paradise for a week in May for our 20th anniversary because we wanted a quiet and secluded location away from the typical tourist hotspots. It did not disappoint.Renee was an excellent host, helping in any way necessary. She helped coordinate with a both a fishing and scuba guide so we could be picked up right at the dock. No issues whatsoever planning those activities. Most everyone was using WhatsApp for communication. Cell service was not an issue and WiFi at the house was good.Carlos was also fantastic, helping with anything we needed and taking us out for a day trip to Jade Beach and Pigeon Cay to swim with the nurse sharks and rays, then to a local restaurant in Santa Elena. Highly recommended.The house was great, everything was clean and worked well. We knew once we got out there that we didn’t want to venture back into town so we tried to get everything we needed for the week at Eldon’s in French Harbour. There is also another grocery next to Eldon’s with additional organic and “clean eating” type products. Glad we did because going back into town would’ve taken up a good portion of a vacation day.The drive isn’t difficult, a little over an hour to experience the local driving culture. There was some road construction. The last mile is a little rough, but doable in the compact SUV we rented.The snorkeling right around Cow and Calf was awesome as well.We loved everything about our trip and hope to be back soon!"
