Golden Crown Paradise Spa Hotel Reviews
" The Crown Paradise is the best hotel... "
Submitted By: Mrs R Hallas
The Crown Paradise is the best hotel I have ever visited. We went for two weeks and you really do not need to leave the hotel as they have everything you require.
Food and drink available 24/7. Several restaurants offering gorgeous food. 50's style restaurant which is served a la carte, with a personal waiter for the evening!
John Wayne Western style steak house (Wayne's Boots) offering mouth watering steaks!
This is a hotel which really caters to your every need!
If you want a hotel with the edge, visit Crown Paradise!

" Brilliant! My girlfriend and I... "
Submitted By: A J Battersby
Brilliant! My girlfriend and I (27& 30) went with my parents to celebrate my dad’s 60th birthday.
The hotel staff were great from our arrival to the day we left, friendly waiters and bar staff.
A good entertainment team, who will not pressure you too much to join in the games if you are too busy relaxing by the spacious pool, or on the white sandy beach where I proposed to my wife to be!
The sea is a bit rough but ok to swim in as long as you pay attention to the flag system, but it is a wonderful turquoise colour which is worth the upgrade to a sea view room.
There were 4 restaurants to choose from when we were there all good, the pick is the Shangri - La which served a la carte food which looks really fancy and tastes fantastic. I would definitely recommend getting dressed up and treating yourself.
Back in England a meal like that would put you back at least £50 quid each, I know I used to work in an award winning restaurant who's food does not come close and its all included in the price!
Clubs are good and worth a visit, although it's very Americanised, we brits just aren't used to all the whooping and a hollering, American college students drinking equals boy testosterone, it was like watching an adult version of Grease!
I was offered drugs outside daddy-os at 5 in the morning I declined and the bloke just walked off to his next victim. But on the whole Cancun was safe.
Any way the hotel is brilliant and although not the fanciest in Cancun is certainly has the great friendly service and food of a 5 star hotel. The adult only was great for us and the rooms are large and very comfortable.

" There was 5 passengers booked on this... "
Submitted By: Mr P Thompson
There was 5 passengers booked on this holiday with 2 rooms that should of had 2 double beds in each room, after a 5 hour delay at Gatwick airport we arrived at the hotel and checked in.
When we got to the room's there was only 1 double bed in each room, we went down to the reception at the hotel and they said that was the only rooms available which resulted in 3 people having to sleep in the same bed. We all went to see the rep the next day who took us again to the reception only to be told there was no bedrooms with 2 beds, we were told to come back later on that day. When we went back again there was no room available and basically the rep told us there was nothing he could do.
Basically we had 1 bed for 3 people for 2 nights until the room we had booked was available the rep just didn’t do anything to help us.

" We came to Cancun for our honeymoon... "
Submitted By: Mrs C McGarvey
We came to Cancun for our honeymoon and could not have made a better choice. The hotel is fabulous with its selection of food, bars and an excellent entertainment team, you don’t even need to leave the grounds during the day. The steak house food was great and the selection in the main restaurant changed every day so you always found something you liked. The waiters were very courteous and you really felt well looked after.
We wanted somewhere with a great night life and Cancun most certainly has that. We went on organised bar crawls which give you the chance to try several places without having to pay separately each time. I went to some of the best clubs ever here but the top marks go to COCO BONGOS. What an experience, we went 4 times in 2 weeks and were still amazed by the show they put on. I would advise to go with the entertainment team from the hotel as it costs the same but they have a section of the VIP reserved and you get waiter service so no need to queue at the bar.
I would also recommend a trip to ShalHa which is the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen. Again entrance is all inclusive, which seems to be the norm in Cancun, so you can eat and drink at will! We spent over 5 hours snorkeling and as the place is so big, even when there are a lot of people you still have plenty of space.
We would both definitely recommend this hotel to all adults who want good food, friendly service, plenty of games etc and a wide variety of cocktails!
We will definitely be going back.

" A fantastic hotel in a fantastic... "
Submitted By: Mrs L Tommy
A fantastic hotel in a fantastic setting.
The food was all wonderful. You could go for the easy option of the self serve or you had a choice of three other restaurants which all served wonderful fresh food.
While on our honeymoon there we had no need to complain. Te only thing I would recommend is that you try you best to get a sea view room. I would have been a bit disappointed if I have a view of the rear of the hotel.
It was a short bus trip into the centre of Cancun where there was plenty of night life. Keep your wits about you though!

" I have just returned from my 2 week... "
Submitted By: Miss H Berni
I have just returned from my 2 week holiday in Cancun with my Boyfriend. We both really enjoyed ourselves. I can honestly say that it was 1 of the best holidays i have been on.
The hotel was lovely, Very well presented, the rooms were very big with TV including Sky. The maid always ensured that your room was very clean.
The staff could not do enough for you. If there were anything you needed, they would try their best to help. The entertainment staff were fantastic. They work very hard ensuring that your holiday is perfect. You are really made to feel welcome. The entertainment staff ran trips every evening to local nightspots. I found this beneficial as this allowed you to mix with other guests staying at the hotel, also allowing you to see the best places to visit in Cancun I.e.. Coco Bongos, G Spot and Daddy Os.
The food at the hotel was nice. The Hotel had a number of restaurants. i.e.. Steak House, Fix and Al a Carte. The only let done with the food is that the hotel needed more selection for evening meals. This didn’t effect our holiday in any way as guests are able to use the sister hotel Crown Paradise restaurants and facilities.
The golden Crown is an adult only hotel which i found as a great benefit as this allowed you to relax.
The beach at the hotel was beautiful. You are able to participate in a number of water activities which does come at a cost.
I will definately be returning to the Golden Crown in the future

" Just returned last week from this... "
Submitted By: Mrs J Hughes
Just returned last week from this wonderful hotel. It truly deserves its 5*.
<br><br>
We were lucky enough to get one of the rooms with a Jacuzzi in it and the view from the balcony was simply perfect. We overlooked the pools and then the fabulous white beach with the most wonderful turquoise/blue colour.
<br><br>
The hotel itself was brilliant. We were met on arrival by one of the porters offering wet cloths so that we could refresh ourselves. We were then escorted through the reception and sat down to await our booking in clerk. Whilst waiting we were given a cocktail to sip. Once we had booked in, we were given a key for the safe, two key cards and the remote control for the television!.
<br><br>
The room was huge. Fully air conditioned (didn’t go off when you left your room either). We had clean sheets and towels every day and our cleaner made little birds with the face cloths and left a lily by the Jacuzzi every morning. The room had satellite TV and a CD player. We also had a mini fridge, which was stocked with various drinks. A coffee machine was also in the room, ideal if you woke early to sit on the balcony and listen to the sound of the waves. We had, I think, one of the honeymoon suites even though it wasn’t our honeymoon.
<br><br>
The restaurants (of which there were 4) were excellent. There was a fish restaurant, an a la carte restaurant, a steak house and the normal restaurant. We tended to eat in the evenings mainly in the steak (Old Barn) restaurant and only once in the a la carte which I must say was wonderful. My husband does not care for fish so I’m afraid I cannot comment on the service in there, but I never heard anyone complain. There were also snack bars during the day and 2 beach bars where the girl would come around to your sun bed and ask if you wanted anything to drink - heaven!
<br><br>
The hotel itself is situated off the main road and so there is no traffic noise, but just a short walk brings you to the main road and a bus to the shopping plaza (La Isla) only costs 13 pesos for the two of you.
<br><br>
This hotel is an adult only hotel but it was not filled with old people - mixture of families and couples but the families were aged 18 and above. In the evening there is a theatre showing various programmes, a small bar at one end of the hotel, a beach bar, which stays open for ages and never seems to be empty - still not noisy. and another bar in the hotel with a very large TV screen. There are also three shops within the lobby of the hotel, one selling gifts, one selling a mixture of gifts, medicines, clothes and the other is a jewellers.
<br><br>
There are plenty of sun beds around the large pool and beach towels are supplied. There are sun beds on the beach too with very large parasols and a table with a little bin for your rubbish (hardly ever saw any kind of rubbish littering the beach, just the occasional cigarette end). This hotel also boasts an outside Jacuzzi, which stays open until at least 11:00pm. There is a small area on the beach where you can have a massage. There is also a large crazy golf course inside one end of the hotel.
<br><br>
I could go on and on (I think I have!) about this hotel. The staff - so so friendly and very obliging - nothing was too much trouble, from carrying your luggage to your room to opening a taxi door for your. Two members of staff that I had a lot to do with during this holiday were Romi, on reception, and Elpedio, who was the Food and Drinks Manager. Both of these lovely people turned themselves inside out so that our holiday was perfect. I can highly recommend this hotel. We met a few lovely people during our stay, American and British, and none of them had a bad word to say about this hotel. We loved it. Lots more to say but not enough time! Give it a try if you are looking for adults only, good food, great location, lovely staff and a relaxing holiday.

This truly is a top class absolutely fantastic hotel and I’d go back in a heartbeat.

The only downfall I had was being too drunk in the nightlife area and pissing behind the building...and was immediately given an order for 1000 pesos by the local federaly. I said I dont have 1000 pesos and he called in the troops. I gave them (almost) everything I had and back-stepped my way out of there.
If your a dumb ass like me, STAY ON THE RESORT. They have everything you need. But you have to go to Coco-Bongos just to see the spectacular night club. Just piss in the bathroom before you leave.
Oh, one more thing, dont get in a fight with your roomie while on site, Federalies will come in your room and take you down, another first hand experience.
I cant say enough about this wonderful place....Just dont trust the local police, they will rob you of everything.
