The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Dining Experience

The buffet-style food at Ocean Paradise Resort was stellar, particularly the seafood night, which was hands down the best I've ever had. The atmosphere in the dining area was perfect, with live bands providing tasteful entertainment while we enjoyed our meals. I particularly recommend trying the lobster in the seafood restaurant - my partner claimed it was the best she's ever tasted!

Relaxing Spa Services

The spa services at Ocean Paradise were a highlight of my trip. The complimentary foot ritual was a good surprise, and I also indulged in a full body massage that was both relaxing and rejuvenating. The tranquil setting contributed greatly to the overall soothing experience.

Meticulous & Comfortable Rooms

My room was exceptionally clean and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was pleasantly firm, and the turn-down service, complete with mosquito net preparation, felt luxurious. I watched bush babies from my balcony in the evenings, which added an enchanting touch to my stay.

Enjoyable Evening Entertainment

Each evening at the resort was filled with low-key entertainment that perfectly complemented our dinner. A band played soft rock and local songs, creating a lovely ambiance that made the dining experience even more enjoyable. It was a nice touch that added to the relaxation of our vacation.

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The hotel is located right on the beach with beautiful gardens and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were clean and presented nicely, making our stay comfortable. The food offered a great variety, especially with themed nights, although we'll note the need for a free Wi-Fi in the rooms which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, fantastic value for money, and we can’t wait to return.
