SBH Club Paraiso Playa

Nothing

The property was nothing like the photos, the food and drinks was awful, the only decent drink was sangria as the spirits were watered down and the cocktails were nothing like the real thing

Food was delicious and the beach was great

The room was without the sea view, however paid for the sea view. I asked to change the room and they refused to do that.

The best of this hotel is its location. Directly on the beach with white sand. Wonderful view from almost each spot of the hotel's area. The food was 50/50: you could find smth to your taste, but nothing spectacular. Coffee was also not bad (definitely much better that at some other hotels we used to stay on the island). Friendly personnel, always helpful, could speak many different languages well: English, German (most guests were German speaking), Dutch and others. Rooms old fashioned, but we'll cleaned and was comfortable for us, also good beds as to our taste.

Talking about the beach: you should be ready for MANY nudists, they tend to take long walks there...to get there from the hotel you need to take some steps, no possibility to get down for disabled people. In the hotel you feel like you went back in time to 80's or so, also very bad internet connection from rooms (even mobile one): if you plan to work there, you could do it only from central areas like reception hall...not much entertainment offered, even there was some. The pool was heated, but not that much, so we could not really enjoy it. There is no city around, so you need to take a bus to the closest one (10-15 min drive), we tried on Sunday, but the bus was already full so did not stop and we had to take a taxi instead for 12-15 euro one way.

Coming from the USA this hotel was terrible and I only gave 2 stars because the beach was nice but a hike up and down. Pool was nice but freezing cold! Rooms had no air conditioning and it was facing the sun. We couldn’t open the sliding door because the mosquitos kept biting me. I couldn’t wait to leave the hotel. This was also a 60 and plus hotel with everyone smoking. Manager was on site the whole time which was nice to see but they really really need to update this hotel!

La vue mer...

Nice beach accessible directly from the hotel.

Food was the same everyday. More invention in the kitchen would be apreciated.
