My partner and I stayed at Paradisus during the month of December. We had initially planned to stay for 10 days but we had such a great time we decided to stay for 14 days (over Christmas). The staff was very friendly, helpful and seemed to genuinely care. I was also impressed with management for their professionalism. I actually lost... more

Ok, first let me say that I recently found TripAdvisor and I'm writing this review a bit late so admittedly things can change for the better or worse. So take this review for what it's worth. There were several irritations (see cons below), and one real problem. When we arrived they apparently didn't have the room we reserved so they... more

My family stayed at this resort during the Christmas Holidays. First off the website leads one to believe this is a luxury resort. This is far from a luxury resort in every way. The food was above average for a all inclusive, but that was the best part. The room was in need of updating, and the internet only was... more

My husband and I stayed at this resort for half of our week-long honeymoon. When we checked in, housekeeping had not removed the room service left outside by the previous guests. Later that evening, some animals knocked over the tray and made a huge mess. Although we reported this to the management, it was poorly cleaned up. In addition, our... more

This place is for people who don't want to leave the United States when they go abroad. It was like being in a gated community in Florida. Further, unlike most places in Costa Rica, the staff were unfriendly and not very helpful. Worst of all, the car rental place on site gave my car away to someone else and then... more

Was our first time at an all inclusive and also our first time in Costa Rica. Have nothing but good things to say about the resort and their staff. The staff of the Paradisus were very friendly. The resort has numerous restaurants. We made a point of trying each one. They were all wonderful. We stayed in the royal reserve... more

We read all the positive and negative review on this hotel but still decided to give it a try since so many people said it was great. Honestly thought the complainers were just that...overstating their experience and were just "those kinda people" who can't be pleased. Unfortunately, from the moment we arrived we knew it was not good. To be... more

This is my very first review. I am only writing it because I’ve never had such an amazing trip and my Fiancé and I realized with reading reviews before we went, most people write reviews just to complain about little things they find while they are away. We did find many good reviews on this hotel but if anyone went... more

We stayed in a Royal Junior Suite Jan 9-16. It was very nice, the only thing missing was a whirlpool tub which one would expect at these prices. The Resort is spotless and the staff very attentive. Tipping the room staff brought extra nice service. The restaurants were great-very nice presentations. Beach nice but no lounge chairs. Took the river... more
