Paraiso De La Bonita Riviera Maya Mexico
From the moment we arrived at the airport, to the wonderfully reassuring sight of a man, our man, standing with a board and our names were on it, it was impeccable service all the way. Our driver, in a lovely Lincoln Navigator, offered us not only water, but cold wet towels, and our choice of music for the short drive to Paraiso de la Bonita.
Now we are talking about an expensive resort here so we would expect great service from the staff at the Paraiso de la Bonita, and we were not disappointed. It would be true to say the service was attentive, and understated, in fact exactly what to expect from this standard of resort.
I have to say we were probably lucky because our visit was in May, and low season had arrived, so we were upgraded to a luxury suite with the works, not to put too fine a point on it. The suite had a king sized bed, and a plunge pool which was the icing on the cake. A great bathroom, with large tub and shower, good toiletries, nice sitting room.
The staff were excellent, in that they were very friendly although the service could be a little slow at times, despite the fact I understand the ratio is two staff to one guest. Anything you need they are more than glad to supply. They remember your name, bring you gifts each night on your pillow.
The beach is very sheltered by the reef, so there isn?t much in the way of waves, and that I believe was the cause of the amount of seaweed, although the beach was cleaned every morning. Sadly the weed kind of prevented you from swimming off the beach.
To be fair we didn?t use the beach much, because there is a large deck to lie out on, and you can swim off that and there is no seaweed.
The food at Paraiso was great. We were very impressed with the menus and enjoyed what they offered. The Guacamole and Risotto were especially good and fresh. The wine selection is good, and the variety of food throughout the day is great..
Free tea and coffee was served daily in the library which was a really cool place to chill out in, have a drink, read and use the internet for free.
The pool was surrounded by luscious plants and had a large jaccuzzi tub in as well comfortable sunloungers as wide as a double bed. The cocktails and service were great from the pool bar, which had a great atmosphere especially around sunset where people congregated for pre dinner drinks.
Overall the Paraiso de la Bonita is well worth staying at.
