The hotel

Nestled in beautiful tropical gardens, Paradise Cove Boutique Hotel is a gorgeous adults-only boutique hotel, offering guests a secluded retreat from the world. Aptly named, it really is paradise here with a pristine white beach and exceptional views of the lagoon and the northern islands from the peninsula. Highly romantic, the resort even offers ‘love nest’ twin sun beds. Also recommended is a visit to Spa Cinq Mondes. Not only does it boast a pool, hammam and flower baths, you can treat yourself to an Indian Ayurvedic massage — sure to banish any lingering cares! At the Paradise Cove, water sports are very much the order of the day, from snorkelling to water-skiing. Come dusk, Stay Bar is the place to sip on tropical cocktails whilst admiring the sunset. There’s live and unplugged music here too but first enjoy dinner at a choice of restaurants. For local dishes, the Dining Room is ideal or experience Asian fusion cuisine at XO. For a real treat, book a table at The Cove — highly romantic, tables for two are set in small huts, right on the beach, beside a coconut grove.

The sea was just too cold to warrant a swim and while the lagoon looked lovely it wasn’t really that appetising for swimming. The meals were of an exceptional standard and the XO restaurant really was as good as the reviews say. The staff were lovely and the resort was kept spotless. A special thanks to Premila who was generally the first person we passed each morning and kept our accommodation spotless. Read less

What a fantastic place to stay... once you pass the gates you are enchanted by the beauty of the garden, singings of birds and above all...very quiet, easy, slow, and Zen hotel. What a peaceful place to relax... The food is excellent with the voice between 4 restaurants. Only at the breakfast... you could stay for hours as there is so few noice and so peaceful to sit in the morning. Rooms are fantastic. We had a Junior Suite with bath. and the beds are really excellent quality!! The members are the reason why we always come back. So lovely to see that year after the year the same staff serves you still and recognise you as well. We have so many names of the staff but we are afraid of missing someone that we will not write them as all staff super kind. The Gardner who creates lovely flowers arrangements each day along the walking pad, the room people, bar people, reception desk who are very helpful, kitchen people, serving people in the restaurant that always put the best table for you ready.

Perfect honeymoon hotel! Can’t fault anything. Staff, service, activities, location are all amazing.. 😄 Really enjoyed all the food on offer, four great places to choose to eat every day. Daily activities are also brilliant you just choose what you want to do each day. Stayed June - July 2024.

Beautiful cove tucked away in the Northeast of the Island, facilities and touches from the staff are really above and beyond. Food is really amazing and great value. Honestly this place is amazing if you want a base to check out the north of the island or stay on your retreat and never leave!
