Paraiso Beach Hotel

Myself and wife (both early 50's) did 10 days at this hotel at the end of June early July 2018. When you book this hotel you get what you pay for. 1. The Hotel could be in a better postion. 2. The Staff are very Good. 3. The entertainment is below average. 4. The Food is ok. 5. Es Cana is a bit run down to what is was years ago. 6. I would return to this hotel for a short break only not a holiday. 7. Old Brits spoil it with alcohol and endless cigarettes issues.

Stayed 7th October for 6 nights all inclusive. Hotel in a good location with under 7 or 8 walk minutes to the beach and resort center. There are a few shops and bars/restaurants just outside the hotel. We had a room to the rear of the hotel which meant that we got the sun in the afternoon. Pool view rooms seemed to get the sun for a short while in the morning and were then in the shade all day, Small balcony but enough room to sit on. Room decent size and comfortable but would benefit from a fridge. We took our own tea/coffee making items. Generally clean but hairs not cleaned in the bathroom for 3 days while we were there and on packing noticed under the bed had not been cleaned for what looked like a few weeks. Great air conditioning. Pool area small but always got a bed although the ones in the sun the longest were reserved by breakfast time. Always found a good selection of food available in the restaurant despite being a small hotel. Food was usually hot and cooked well. Drinks were available from the bar just beside the restaurant. Forget afternoon tea which is available from 4 pm, Tried twice, first time nothing out so left it. Second time nothing out so asked a member of staff who brought out a plate with some type of slab cake on it. Give it a miss. All inclusive drinks were poor.The beer and wine were o.k but the spirits very cheap and measured every time to the top of the first ice cube. If you wanted better quality local produced spirits you had to pay extra as well. Some coffees like cappuccino you also had to pay extra for. Bar staff were friendly and efficient but due to people ordering coffees in the evening there was sometimes quite a queue. Entertainment on the four nights we had it was quite good but the last two nights nothing was provided. The entertainment/bar area could not seat everyone causing some people to bring tables and chairs in from outside which the staff did not like. Went to Charlie's bar to watch Abba tribute act and sat outside where it was packed only to learn that the act was inside the bar. They were good though. We took the water taxi to Ibiza town 11 euro each way but well worth it. Took about 1 hour 20 min each way stopping in Santa Eulalia and Cala Longa. Bus trip to Santa Eulalia is about 1.55 euro each way. 10 minutes on the bus well worth a visit. Walked up to the Hippy market which is 10 minutes walk up from the hotel. Give this a MISS. Full of the same tat you can buy in the resort shops but at 3 times the price. Overall we had a good time but some things could have been better. It needs to decide if it's an all-inclusive hotel or not. Would we return sadly not.
