Paradise Point Resort & Spa

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

8/10 Good
"It's definitely an aged property, but overall a great place to stay. The rooms were the highlight for us, very well updated. The outdoor areas less so. The pool area lacks a 4-star experience IMO, but perfect for families with young kids (it was chaotic, but plenty of towels and chairs). Solid food at restaurants, great location."

"The room was clean the water pressure is very weak. The front check in staff and restaurant staff we are great. You cannot order or bring your own food to the pool. They said it takes from their restaurant business which is understandable. Just thought I would let others know since I found out the hard way by ordering pizza for delivery thinking I can enjoy by the pool. You cannot do that but you can enjoy in your room."
