First of all and most importantly, I would like to say that I really enjoyed my stay at Paraiso and I would stay here again. Having said that, there are differing opinions here and I would like to address some them in an effort to help set some expectations. My cousin and I stayed here the last week of April... More

Just spent five days on the Corn Islands, Nicaragua. The wife and I stayed at the Paraiso Beach Hotel on Big Corn Island. This was the highlight of our stay on the islands. The cabanas are cozy with hammock to lounge around in.. They have an outdoor restaurant and bar. You must try their coconut bread. The staff is friendly... More

If you are looking for fancy accommodations, don't go to Corn Island.On the other hand if you are looking for the charm and beauty of the Real Caribbean, the Paraiso on Big Corn Island is for you. The charming Dutch owner Ton has his eye on everything, the grounds are very well maintained; my room was perfect, ceiling fan, A/C,... More

Amazing, we never knew such a tranquil place still existed. Yes, we've 'done' the Carribean before with all it's commercialisation, the Far East, Africa etc etc yet here we found staff that couldn't do enough for us... provided 'tailored' food when requested... additional 'bit & bobs' we'd forgotten... hosted a party for us... after 14 nights the 37 hours to...

Don't stay there! We booked it for 4 nights and didn't even manage to stay for 24 hours. What a terrible place. I understand rustic and I've done cabanas style accommodation in Honduras and Mexico before but Paraiso is a total dump.it is so overpriced we couldn't believe it. The room was terrible, smelled like sewage, completely worn down, so... More

The couple of this review was indeed checking out already the next day because they found one cockroach in the bathroom. We understand that this is not right but can happen in the open landscape area of the hotel on a tropical island. What is really surprising us is that they did not mention anything about the bad smell in... More

First off, the Corn Islands are way off the well beaten tourist path. Don't expect services and facilities as are available in more developed Caribbean destinations. However, do expect to discover an island unspoilt by large scale development, with a rustic charm and full of character, also cheap and laid back, with very friendly people. The hotel is situated on... More

Breakfast was overpriced and the waitstaff can't wrap their heads around doing anything but giving you your meal as it is listed on the menu. I asked for NO Eggs, and they brought me a plate full of eggs and no fruit. GET YOUR ACTS TOGETHER!

Hello Rob, Thank you for your feedback. We have sorted it out now. We believe in your case the problem was in the language. The waitresses are mostly Creole and speak Creole-English. It happens when they think they understand something, in fact they got it wrong. We asked them to repeat our guest orders to them to prevent mistakes. Come... More

After a great trip through a lot of places in Nicaragua, we ended up on Big Corn Island. We walked in the Paraiso hotel. Immediately we knew, this is what the doctor ordered. Nice grounds and the cabana's looked so romantic. Inside they were quite big and clean. Nadeska gave us a warm welcome. Then the food in the restaurant!... More
