Paradise Point Resort & Spa
Feels like you are walking thru a trailer park with a nice view of the water. Not impressed. Place is run down but was once nice. Rooms need to be upgraded. Bed very uncomfortable… Food was overpriced. The best part of this experience was the waiter at Tidal. Escobar.. he was fantastic!

Best Western Seven Seas
Run down hotel. Carpets were gross. Bathroom is super small. It didn't feel clean. The photos of the hotel on this website are deceiving. We will never stay there again. Customer service at the front desk was wonderful. Michelle helped us check in and she was so friendly and super helpful.
