Paradise Beach Villas

Frommer's Review

Next to La Cabana and across the street from one of Eagle Beach's nicest sections, this quiet, welcoming timeshare boasts large studios and suites in Spanish mission-style two- and three-story buildings. Because many owners come back year after year, the place has the air of a family reunion. You'll see lots of American couples in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, often joined by children and grandkids during the high season. Independent rental guests enjoy the laid-back atmosphere and absence of nonstop activities. White tile floors, tropical pastel colors, and wicker-bamboo furniture brighten every unit. Balconies are large, and the full bathrooms hold a Jacuzzi. Studios have a small kitchenette, while suites have a deluxe, fully equipped kitchen. In the two- and three-bedroom suites, guest rooms feature two single beds; the large adjacent bathrooms have a roomy shower. The master bedrooms have a queen- or king-size bed and a bathroom with two sinks. In town houses, a spiral staircase ascends to the master suite. Bar seating separates the kitchen from the dining and living room, which opens to a spacious balcony. The more expensive Phase II units are closer to the beach and have a roomier kitchen and living room. The Phase II pool is also larger than the original.

Facilities: 2 restaurants; bar; 2 large free-form outdoor pools/lagoons; 18-hole championship golf course nearby; exercise room; poolside Jacuzzis; tour/activities desk; car-rental desk; shopping arcade; babysitting; coin-op laundry; rooms for those w/limited mobility.
