Warwick Paradise Island is the all-inclusive, adults-only alternative to the mega-resort next door. It stands on Harbour Drive, on the quiet harbour side of Paradise Island, and has about 240 individually furnished rooms, in king and double-bed layouts, with balcony, water-view and island-view options and a one-bedroom harbourfront suite. The resort has a large free-form pool, a separate lap pool and a lagoon-style beach, and five restaurants that include buffets and à la carte dining, among them Abbiocco, Edgewater Grill, The Verandah and a pizzeria, with a poolside bar and a terrace. Rates are all-inclusive, covering meals, snacks, activities and the use of facilities, and gratuities are included. The Amber Spa has six treatment rooms, there is a 24-hour fitness centre, a tennis court and beach volleyball, and evenings bring live shows, karaoke and game nights in a seventies-style venue. Bicycles can be borrowed free, which is a good way to explore the island.
Location and getting around
The resort faces Nassau Harbour on the south shore of Paradise Island. The Marina Village at Atlantis is about a six-minute walk, Cabbage Beach about twelve minutes, Versailles Gardens thirteen, and the Atlantis casino seventeen. Aquaventure is a short drive away, and the airport is about half an hour by car. Downtown Nassau is across the bridge. There is a shuttle around the area, limited parking, and free bicycle rental.
The rooms
The ten room types include balcony rooms, water-view and island-view rooms, a wheelchair-accessible king and a harbourfront one-bedroom suite. Rooms have air conditioning, a safe, a refrigerator, a coffee and tea maker, a large flat-screen television and free Wi-Fi. There are no elevators, so ask for a ground-floor room if stairs are a problem. Check what stage any room refurbishment is at when you book, as work can be carried out on weekdays.
Who it suits
Couples and groups of adults who want a fixed budget and plenty to do without crossing a crowded resort. The adults-only rule means children and teenagers are not welcome, and the resort is a good fit for honeymooners and anniversary trips. Families should look at the other Paradise Island hotels, which include water park access.
Good to know
A daily resort fee per person is charged on top of the room rate and covers things such as beach towels, fitness and pool access, in-room water and coffee, and laundry, so look at the total price rather than the nightly rate. A deposit is taken at check-in, and the resort accepts cards but not cash. Free cancellation applies to selected rates only. Use the shuttle and bikes to reach Atlantis dining, and book dinner at the busier restaurants early.
