Paradise Island Beach Resort

A really beautiful boutique hotel. Service is outstanding, the restaurant food is amazing. Great views and the most beautiful beach you'll ever see. Clean water, perfect sand. Great excursions to Paradise Island as well. Not far from other beaches and restaurants, highly recommend

I came to visit my uncle in Punta Rusia and he took me to the best beach ever called Paradise Island beach resort. The water is crystal clear and baby blue. The service is good. The drinks are authentic, and natural! I recommend this place to everyone. I had an amazing day!

Here at Paradise Island Beach Resort its so beautiful.. The service was amazing.. We rented a boat and omg they showed us the most beautiful little island.. The food was amazing.. Yocairy was awesome !!

I love this place! Parade Island beach Resort! My fist time here and I recommend this place! The beach, the service, and the food is great! So glad I came!

This hotel and restaurant is excellent. The service and food omg I love it. The lady in charge of the hotel, her name is Yocairy was really nice and patient I really recommend this place. I came here from New York and i will come back with all my family

We came to spend a couple of hours at this beach. We loved the beautiful beach and the strong margaritas.

Amazing place. Great fried fish and secluded beach.

I’m not one to normally write a review but the exceptional service provided by the Paradise Island Beach Resort called for high praise. It’s was clean and beautiful, with friendly staff that anticipated our needs. The private beach elevated the experience but the trip to Cayo Arena stole the show. 10/10

We booked this as an excursion from the Lifestyle hotel and we loved it, it was also one of the first things we did while on vacation. The people are so welcoming and attentive especially while on the boat with the services they provide for you. I went snorkeling and it was the best experience because our guide made sure we were okay. Amazing people.

Great place to vist very kid freindly

Beautiful, cozy hotel. the staff were great and welcoming. The room was clean & beautiful, food was delicious! Beautiful beaches. We Loved our stay at paradise island beach resort, we would definitely go back again!

Ruth was such an amazing host! She treated my family and I really well and kept making sure we had everything we need on our time here

We had great experience with this place. Very nice and helpful people who are working there, special thanks to Maria. She is wonderful. I recommend this place very much.

This place is amazing, beach hut paradise for sure the service was extremely well, a girl Ruth , was our server she was so helpful and polite took great care of . Stop by and check it out

My favorite place to go when I’m in Punta Rucia! The people and the service is amazing, food is amazing also! What I love about is that is private from all other beaches.

Lovely time! Nice hidden gem. Definitely take the catamaran to Cayó Arena. Great service! Thanks Ruth!

When you arrive to the beach immediately natives will try to lure you on a trip to a few km distant island. Do not be afraid to haggle on price. the island is gorgeous. If you do not have a diving glasses can get them there rent free. Underwater you can see the amazing underwater world of fish and corals and other animals ...

Great place to spend the weekend or even a day with family. Beautiful beach. Great Service. Totally recommend it!

We have visited the Paradise Island & The Mangroves during our trip to Dominican Republic at the beginning of 2015. I usually divide my reviews into PROS and CONS, but in case of Paradise Island it’s really hard to find any CONS. Before going into details I would like to mention and thank Milton from DominicanAirport(Dot)com who organized our trip to the Island (transportation from/to Barcelo Puerto Plata, tickets, and lunch after the trip). If you prefer to see how the Paradise Island looks like go to YouTube and search “Paradise Island & The Mangroves (#Travel) Cyganik”). With all this being said, now it’s the time for breakdown:

PROS:
- Getting to From the Island: Great Trip on extremely primitive speedboat (adds to the thrill). Our “captain” on the way back was maybe like 13 years old… To me that’s a value added, but I realize that for some people it might be scary
- On the Island: Nice views, plenty of fresh fruits, & drinks included in price. Brugal is there too.
- Snorkeling: Really nice. We did this in few places, and this one is among the best ones yet (behind the Big Island of Hawaii). If you refer to our video on YT you will know what I mean.
- Mangroves: Great Ride through the park. Beautiful nature, views, and thrill of going through the narrow channels on a speedboat.
- Lunch: When you return from the trip, you will be able to taste local cuisine prepared by locals. This is always a great cultural experience.

CONS:
- Lack of Bathrooms on the Island: Yes. If you really need to go you are in trouble. Especially #2. Period.
- Beggars on shore: I understand that DR is not the richest place on the planet, but this bothered me a little bit.

ADVICE: Remember to bring your own towel. If you don’t you will get dry by the sun, and lay on sand.

Altogether, the trip to the Paradise Island was a very pleasant experience that will remain in our memories. I invite you to check out video on YouTube to see how it looks. Just search: “Paradise Island & The Mangroves (#Travel) Cyganik”. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Awesome so kind!
