My wife and I had an absolutely amazing stay at the Ocean Club. Everything was perfect - the room, the service, the food and, of course, the location. This was our first trip to Paradise Island and we learned that the multiple hotels within the resort are geared to different experiences. The Ocean Club is designed for privacy and calm. Our butlers were great, as was every single staff member we encountered. Unlike other Caribbean destinations, there was no pressure for tipping for service and...

I really like my experience in the hotel. The hotel looks like a mansion that they turned into s hotel. Not a lot of people in the city might know about it it seems so if you want a taxi driver to take you back, its best to tell them to take you to the restaurant next door called 'sapodilla' It's pretty far away from the main city but there's always a bus that can take us there for $1.25 per person. There's also a nice beach outside the hotel to hangout. And a nice fine dining restaurant...

Ok people. I never leave reviews, but I felt compelled to do so because you must prepare for your family for the insane prices of EVERYTHING. This place is WONDERFULL. My only complaints are as follows: The staff at the beach and park seem to get annoyed when you ask for a cup of ice or ice water, it likes bothers them for some reason. I think it was because you're not spending money. Our food bill for a family of 4 for 5 days was well over $2200.00, and that was not one alcoholic drink ordered....

British Colonial has a great location and beautiful private beach. I was contemplating on staying at Margaritaville or on Paradise Island, but I am so glad we didn't. We tried one day to go to the public beach which is shared with Maragaritaville and it was chaos. We just walked back to British Colonial and enjoyed a nice relaxing afternoon. The rooms are very clean with comfortable towels and linens. Being right in downtown it makes almost all attractions walkable, and it is only a few minutes...

My husband and I stayed recently at Graycliff and we loved the experience. We felt like VIP's with the staff bringing us drinks by the pool, taking us on a private wine tour of the wine cellar (I think they have over 260,000 bottles of wine) plus my husband learned how to roll a cigar (Graycliff cigars are one of his favorite). The best part was dinner in the evening, we tried both restaurants and they are both outstanding. We got to meet the owners and have decided to make this an annual trip...

SLS Hotel was beautiful. The staff were very friendly and nice to deal with. We enjoyed all the pools waterpark and Cable beach water was so clear and delightful. Very pretty property. Being an older couple we were surprised to see so many families with children so young. For being a luxury hotel we felt there were too many kids everywhere. We also felt the cost to eat at the restaurants were over the top expensive. Plus no reservation you dont get in. This is our 2nd time visiting...
