We had a lovely stay at the Paradise hotel. We were made to feel very, very welcome and all the staff were very accommodating. Our room was nice, the girls bed's made up in the lounge were very comfortable but the airconditioning wasn't quite up to scratch for the 40 degree heatwave we were experiencing.
The four pools were great, not overly busy, but sunbeds did get taken quite early in the morning.
The animation team were ok. We warmed to them over the week but a little lacking in the safety of our kiddies. One would expect names to be taken of the kids when dropping them off at kids club and a mention of where the parents would be, but nothing. The kids, however, loved them all, and enjoyed the mini disco with Coco the Seahorse and some of the activities during the day (not a great amount of effort put into them though). The evening entertainment was fine and the drinks were ok. Not the best cocktails but for all inclusive they did a job.
The food in the restaurant was very varied and very tasty too.
Overall the hotel is in a brilliant location too, right opposite the marine, so great for evening strolls around there (it could do with a few more market stalls, every other one was hair braiding)
