Paradisus Palma Real Golf & Spa Resort

We had an enjoyable time staying at the Reserve at Paradisus Palma Real. Visited with my partner, sister and mother, and thought it was a strong choice for us. Pros included nicely renovated room, beachfront property, nice restaurants / restaurant selection, good drinks, and ample pool/beach seating. We enjoyed the evening entertainment that took place every night in the lobby area or the main patio. While not the best all inclusive out there, giving it five stars because it provided a lot of value for the price. Cons included somewhat inattentive service at times (waiters were slower / less friendly than at other Paradisus properties). Restaurants were not open every day and reservations proved tricky to book. On whether to book the reserve, would say the main benefit was having access to the cabanas on the beach. Those were very comfortable and had bar service. Unless you really appreciate that, probably not worth the price difference as the pools are comparable, the rooms similar, and the concierge was useless at best--while well intentioned, Kelvin seemed unable to promptly make restaurant reservations, get the minibar stocked, get the room cleaned at specific times, etc. He was very good at saying yes but didn't seem to have the authority to get anything done. On a final note, "buyer beware" against the Circle / Club Melia time share. My parents bought it 10+ years ago and today has zero value. They sell you a long list of benefits but they're difficult to use, steeply devalue over time, and in hindsight was 100% not worth it. Laura at Circle was also rude and unhelpful--laying out supposed benefits that proved to be false. Would strongly, strongly advise against the program.

Melqui at blue agave was very kind and accommodating. Great food and recommendations!

Had a great time with my family eating at Blue Agave. Melqui took great care of us! Great server, very nice and attentive.

We stayed at Paradisus Palma Real Golf & Spa Resort in late June 2026, and from the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed. The staff were incredibly friendly, and check-in was quick, smooth, and hassle-free. We were pleasantly surprised with a room upgrade, which was arranged after an email I had sent before our arrival—a thoughtful gesture that set the tone for the rest of our stay. Throughout the week, every staff member we encountered was warm and welcoming. Whether it was a smile, a cheerful “Hola,” a thumbs-up, or a hand-over-the-heart greeting, they consistently made us feel valued as guests. The resort itself was spotless and very well maintained. It was clear that the maintenance team took great pride in the property, as they were constantly touching up and repairing areas to keep everything looking its best. The food offered an impressive variety at every meal, with plenty of options for all tastes. My only real criticism was that the food was often served lukewarm or cold, whether at breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Improving the food temperature would make a significant difference to the overall dining experience. All of the à la carte restaurants we visited were excellent, with Mina being one of my favorites. The pool was huge, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy without feeling crowded. The beach was absolutely stunning—one of the highlights of our trip. There were lots of palapas and comfortable seating, and we never had trouble finding a spot or felt overcrowded. The only other area that could use some improvement was the activities program. There were fewer activities than expected, particularly aquatic activities. A few of the scheduled events never took place because no staff members showed up to run them, which was a little disappointing. Overall, I would rate this resort 4.75 out of 5 stars. The exceptional staff, beautiful beach, immaculate grounds, and luxurious atmosphere far outweighed the minor drawbacks. I would absolutely recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing luxury getaway with gorgeous weather, outstanding hospitality, and a truly beautiful beachfront experience.

Had a great experience, room and service were great. Beautiful resort.
