Booked Grand Paradise for a cheap and cheerful holiday and that's exactly what we got. Room was exactly as described. Had problem with water coming from A/C but it was quickly fixed. Good variety of food - people complain about the food but I felt that for a buffet they made a good effort to mix it up. Amazing view... More

During the day you can only eat at the buffet... when its opened. Last bar is closing at 1am!!! So you need to... More

Whether you like this hotel or not depends on where you have been before and what you are used to. If you have never been all inclusive in the Caribbean before or if you have never been above a 2 star before then you will like this place. If not and you have experienced somewhere really great with lots of... More
