Great for Surf & Relaxation – Beautiful but Isolated
I had a very enjoyable stay at Paradise Plage. I received a complimentary room upgrade on arrival and the room was very large and comfortable. The hotel and grounds are beautiful, very clean, and rooms are serviced daily. There are plenty of sun loungers and towels, so no issues getting a spot.
The beachfront location is excellent and the surf offering is a real highlight – boards are around €15 for a half day and lessons are available. It’s ideal if you want to focus on surfing, yoga, and a relaxed routine with early nights.
The heated pool is nice but quite small if you’re looking to swim lengths.
Food-wise, the buffet breakfast is very good and lunch snacks are also enjoyable. Dinner, however, can be disorganised and the quality is inconsistent, sometimes poor.
Be aware the hotel is quite isolated. The nearest town is 8km away and taxis cost about €10 each way. There are no nearby bars or restaurants, and alcohol is only available in the hotel. Drinks are expensive (€7 beer/wine, €33 bottle).
Transfers to/from the airport cost €45. Also, there are quite a few cats and dogs around the grounds.
Overall, a great choice if you want a quiet surf and yoga retreat in a beautiful setting.
