Technically you are not staying at Uroa beach, there is a shuttle that takes you to Uroa beach Free of charge every hour. The beach at the hotel is far less than desirable. The check in process is a joke and aggravating after a long trip. The Maasi,security is a pretty interesting concept, they very helpful. The food sucked, and are no 2nd options around the area to be had, nor any nightlife either after 930 you’re pretty much help hostage. The internet doesn’t work, I can’t count how many times I heard people complaining about the internet. Someone’s complaining about as I write this, I commandeered the Internet passcode for the reception desk that seems to be the only place that the Internet is working .

There are a few things that could make this a much better place. First - the menu is terrible and the food is not very good. It is over-priced for the portion size and the selection is extremely limited. Also, the beach is filled with trash. Just a few hours of work to pick up the garbage would make a huge difference in the quality of the beach. I know it is garbage that washes in from the ocean and not just people dumping, but if the staff made an effort to clean it, it would show greater appreciation for the environment. Also, it is the World Cup but they only had one television playing in a crowded area even though there were many tvs around the resort they never would turn them on.

Surprisingly Good
We got a very cheap last minute price via Expedia but reading some negative reviews we didn't know what to expect. We liked Paridise Beach Resort. As others have mentioned you can't swim in the sea but there is a nice sandy beach & surrounding gardens with 'loungers' & a few hammocks. Also area beside pool. We went to the other beach & it was even nicer & we were able to swim. We had lunch there & were very disappointed by the food & thought it was expensive compared to other better hotels on the island. We went B&B and you can buy a buffet lunch for $17 or dinner $25 (including 1 drink). We upgraded to inclusive for $35 pp for the last day. The buffet food was OK rather than good. The furniture around the resort was very interesting, often made out of old boats. The rooms however are more basic, we had a double bed & a single bed in a large open area. The single bed was a proper mattress & big enough for an adult. Our first room was near to the kitchen & the drone of the ventilation kept me awake, they moved us to another room nearer the sea, which was much nicer. Both bathrooms were functional rather than luxurious. There is also the 'Ala Cart' restaurant beside the 'Zanzi Bar'. The food there was better than buffet. We stayed 3 nights & 2 nights at another hotel & 1 night in Stonetown. There's not much to do so a change of scenery was welcome. It was good to stay in Stonetown but probably better to go only for a few hours. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL!!!
First of all, the information about this hotel on this website is inaccurate and misleading. It is advertised as a 4 star hotel. No way! I've stayed at lots of hotels in East Africa, and in comparison, this is about a 2.5 star hotel. The facilities are basic, the staff incompetent, the food disappointing. During low tide, the ocean turns into a swamp that looks disgusting and stinks. There is lots of trash on the beach. The hotel is located in a tiny village, there are no restaurants, supermarkets, souvenir shops or water sports companies within walking distance. Of the three dining options listed on this website, two don't exist. There is only one restaurant with both a buffet and an a la carte menu. The menu is overpriced, the food is generally not great quality. You only eat here because there are no other options! It's also advertised as a family hotel with a free children's club. Completely false! There are no activities for kids. Dinner starts at 7:30pm, way too late for small children. There's no staff competent to deal with children, in fact, several creepy staff members kept scaring our kids! The rooms are spacious but simple. There was mold on one of the sofa/beds. And there were bed bugs in all of our beds! We left early after the whole family was covered in bites. If you any dietary restrictions, avoid the restaurant. We asked both wait staff and chefs about ingredients of dishes (simple ones such as wheat or corn) and were given false information.
