I stayed at Paradise Point in August 2011 for a business conference. I was a little hesitant because of the negative reviews I had read on TripAdvisor but there were no other options for the conference. My experience was very positive. The property is beautiful (as others have stated) and has a tropical "feel". My room was excellent, food at "Barefoot" was good and the conference venue was exceptional. In particular, the waterfront conference setting was unique and beautiful. All hotel staff members that I encountered were very courteous, professional and offered to help make my stay enjoyable.
The only complaint was that the internet connection was not very good in my room, either wireless or wired. I was not able to use my laptop in my room. I asked about wireless service at the pools, was told it was available but the signal was not strong enough to be useable.
I had considered bringing my family to the conference with me but with two toddlers, we decided against this (in part because of not being sure of the condition of the property after reading the reviews). This is a great property for families but probably not for those traveling with babies or toddlers. There are apparently no suites with kitchens which many consider essential when staying in a hotel for several days with very young children.
It is a very nice property, any former problems have been corrected and I would stay here again with no hesitation. I would suggest that the management gently reply to all of the negative reviews on Trip Advisor. These reviews are certainly considered when many people are making travel plans.
