Paradise Club Hotel Reviews
" Just returned from the Paradise Club... "
Submitted By: Mr Chris ChristophiBe aware though that although the restaurants are very good, They are expensive and so are the local supermarkets. If this hotel is on your shortlist of possible holidays then I would say Book it. The seafood Paella at El Pato restaurant is a must.

Submitted By: Mrs J Allsopall, It was immaculately clean rooms cleaned every day with fresh towels. Beds changed 3 times in a week which we thought very good. Pools were all really good plenty of comfortable sunbeds. shops bars restaurants and harbour were a 2 min walk away, with restaurants to suit every taste all at reasonable prices. there were 18 people in our party be were welcomed into most restaurants, Cant recommend highly enough CHAPLINS the staff food and price make this an ideal place for adults and children, Rik and his staff went out of there way to accomodate 18 of us, and we cant thank them enough they went far beyond your call of duty to make us very welcome, so if you want a fun night dont miss chaplins. The animation team worked really hard at hotel and were very friendly never failing to smile and say hello when passing by even though they must have been exhausted as they worked very long hours. We had a wonderful week at this hotel and would like to thank all there for making our holiday so good.
" Just returned today from a week's... "
Submitted By: Mr B PatelWe went to Mamaris in Turkey in July and Menorca is completely different. It is more expensive and there is less to do, but in terms of scenery, Menorca is much nicer. A great place to chill.
We found the hotel to be really good, deserving of it's 4 stars. I think if your a couple without children, the best time to come is early Sept, when most of the children are back at school. The price for this type of accommodation falls dramatically, as high season has come and gone. The staff were great, the rooms were spacious and yes there were a few ants on the balcony, but they didn't make into the room.
The Marina restaurants are fine, but vary in price. El Pato was reasonable and good quality. Try the hotel restaurant one night, just for the experience of dining in a four star hotel restaurant - at 15 euros it was a steal. The food was good and the ambience was definitely upmarket! The only problem is that if you over eat, you won't be able to much else but walk around the marina afterwards.
Catch the bus into the city from outside the hotel for 1.75 euro and explore. Citiuedella is wonderful place to walk around and some of the shops are superb. Okay, you won't be able to find cheap fake goods like you do in other holiday resorts, but some of the stuff is well made and great value. The only thing to bear in mind is that the Mernorcans tend to be a bit laid back when it comes to tourists. The customer is not king ! They're not particularly bothered if you buy or not!
All in all the holiday was a great experience. Recommended.
" Just stayed at the paradise club... "
Submitted By: Mr C PinneyPlenty to do through the day ranging from water polo, rifle shooting, football, all done with Chicco and Valdis. Beach is only 10 minutes walk, but can get very busy. Sea is great for snorkling, plenty of fish by the rocks. Buy your own parasole, can be very expensive to rent sun loungers and parasoles on the beach.
Marina across the road with restaurants all the way around it. We ate out in a few restaurants, our favourite was la fontana which was reasonable priced, and the staff very friendly. Goody Goody is a large games area with pool tables etc which is located at the end of the Marina. Local Transport is very good, went to Mahon harbour and Ciutadella twice. Already booked for next year. Would highly recommend it.

Submitted By: Mrs S Ahmetand if you go after 2.30 you get in for half price.Not the biggest place but an enjoyable afternoon out. There are 2 supermarkets just across the road and a chemist and a tobacconist and also a few nice gift shops.Cala n bosh is very good as it has everything for a great family holiday within walking distance.The beach is 10 minutes walk but does get a little crowded.All in all a very enjoyable holiday so much so that we have booked to stay at the paradise next year as we think that it is hard to beat.
" After an awful start to the holiday... "
Submitted By: Mrs M Pogsonwas very clean, we had fresh towels every day and clean sheets every 2 to 3 days.
The resort is family orientated but mainly for little ones, my son is 19 and my daughter 11, they were claiming to be bored after the first week. The resort is small and some of it quite tacky. We ate at the Avanti restaurant, the food there was beautiful and that side of the marina with the stalls and paintings was quite atmospheric..but i would advise that 2 weeks is probably to long. If you like to eat out for breakfast or lunch you really must try Leli's, this is a little family run cafe. its very friendly and alot of the local people eat there at lunch time. we were in there nearly every day and they make you feel very welcome. Leli's is near the bridge, just at the back of the goody goody park. You really must take a trip into Cuitadella, its a beautiful place for anyone who likes shopping, sight seeing or just people watching, a very pretty traditional spanish town.
Son Xugiuer(not sure of spelling) is the best beach and is worth the 10 minute walk. We were snorkelling and it was like swimming in a tropical fish tank.. we were feeding these beautiful white fish with a bread roll under the water. the sea is crystal clear. Cala n Bocsh beach isnt quite as good..its a little dirty with litter which is a shame.
On the whole a lovely holiday..my husband and myself would definitely come to Menorca again but to a different resort. although i was sorry to leave.
" We have not long returned from a... "
Submitted By: Mrs A WilsonThe Hotel itself was brilliant, animation team was the best we have ever experienced. The pools were clean, slight downside was you needed to be up VERY EARLY to grab a decent sunbed! The rooms are big but we found them to have a musty smell, and a lack of utensils, glasses etc in the kitchen(the reason for my 9/10). We did have to be moved on arrival due to the air-conditioning not working in our first room and although this took a little time to be re-located the manager did invite us to a free dinner at the hotel as an apology- a nice touch we felt.
The hotel is directly oppposite the marina which is fab especially with two little ones (aged 2&5). our favourite restaurant has to be the La Fontana! beautiful food and the staff cant do enough for you. the children loved to dance around the band stand after our meal whilst the 2 men were singing away!
evening entertainment in the hotel was good, ours loved the disco although we felt 9pm was a little late for them. I would definately recommend this hotel especially if you have children. Goody goody's is only a 5minute walk away and this is great fun! the main waterpark is only a 5-10minute walk away and this is a great day out for the whole family- a must! ask at reception for entrance tickets as the paradise club offer cheaper tickets for the water park.
the hotel also offer a minimum 4 day half board, under 15 eat free and adults are 15euros a day. It cost us 120 euros for us all to eat half board for 4 days fantastic value! the food was lovely, lots of choice for my husband and myself although a couple of nights not a huge choice for the children(my youngest can be a little fussy thou!). The food is fresh and being replaced all night.
The marina does offer some lovely restuarants but we did find it too be quite pricey eating out all the time.
This was our 3rd visit to Menorca and already we have the brochures for 2009! we would definately look at staying at the paradise club again!
" Lovely place, the area is great. Very... "
Submitted By: Mr A RobertsonHotel was lovely except for one problem.... ANTS and there was millions of them. We were in the blocks that were seperate from the main hotel building next to the pool. There were millions of ants around the outside of the buildings but when we got inside they were on the walls, benches, chairs and floor of our room. We nipped to the supermarket and bought some ant spray that killed them instantly. this removed the problem but every now and again you would find the odd few running around. Be very careful not to leave any food lying anywhere.
Apart from this i had no complaints about anything else. Hotel is very close to lovely marina and not too far from beach. The hotel also has a lovel double swimming pool.
I would say to avoid the ant problem you would be best to ask to be in the main hotel building.

Submitted By: Mrs C SmithsonWe had our towels changed most days and linen about 4 times and the maids were very polite and did a good job.
The pools were brilliant, my 2 all but lived in them! The only problem was the parasols - they are fixed in the ground and there aren't many and having young children shade is a must in such hot weather. So annoying as it may be I found myself joining the troops at 7am to try and get one near the pool edge and even at this time most had already been taken! (this is the reason for a score of 9/10). But apart from this we spent many days by the pool as there was lots for the children to do with the animation team.
The hotel is just across the road from the Marina which is a really good place to eat, shop and generally unwind. We ate at numerous restaurants and never had a bad meal! Our favourites were Avanti, Chaplins, Piccolo, The Britannia Bar and Torro Negro (although this was alot more expensive than the others, but still good). After our meal we usually went to Tom's Bar and listened to the 2 men singing on the bandstand and chilled out!
We had days out at Aqua Rock and Goody Goody's which are well worth a visit if you have children.
The beaches are lovely - we went to Son Xoriguer (about a 20 min. walk) but take your parasols as there aren't any on the beach (we bought one for about 5e) and Cala n Bosch beach (about 10 min. walk) which hires out sunbeds and a parasol for 18e for 2. The sea was great, no jellyfish, as I had read on other reviews.
The evening entertainment at the hotel was ok, there's a kiddies disco 9 - 9.30, then bingo and then a show. We also ate in the hotel a few times and found both the breakfasts and evening meals to be good - buffet style, so help yourself to as much and whatever you like. There was enough variety and even the children enjoyed it.
All in all we had a fabulous holiday, the hotel, marina, shops and beaches were brilliant and we are definitely going to go back!
" We stayed at the Paradise Club in May... "
Submitted By: Mrs E NealeThe location is brilliant and just across the road from the harbour, supermarkets, chemist, car hire etc. The beach was a little further than we thought and also not that big. I would definately recommend La Fontana (restaurant in to the left of the band stand).
I can't understand why people are complaining about children making a noise, they are on holiday just as much as you and this resort as well as apartments is geared up for families with young children. It is obvious from the reviews you read in the brochures beforehand, so why choose this kind of place if it is going to annoy you??!!! If it is peace and quiet you want away from children then don't come here. If you want a good family friendly hotel and resort this is the place for you.
We won't be going back to the Paradise Club as we didn't particularly like Menorca but I would recommend the apartments.
