Hotel Riu Palace Paradise Island - Adults Only - All Inclusive
The staff was pleasant and helpful. The hotel was a little on the old side. Coffee bar in room was not replenished on a daily basis. The restaurants had very limited menus. It was difficult to get same-day reservations at the restaurants. Overall, to me, this is a three star hotel.

The Royal at Atlantis
Great staff, room service and cleaning services were really good. The bar staff are really friendly. Favourite bar vibe was Plato's but best service was at the shake shack bar. Anthony and Ria are great
