The room was a little crusty and rickety, the pool was nice but small & the staff was mostly kind.

Paradise Point Resort & Spa
We primary eat at the Barefoot Bar and Grill. Food was pricey but quality was excellent. We even returned for breakfast. I wish there was a coffee shop on site. This place is excellent for bike riding. Staff was very friendly.
