THE MOST SPECIAL DAY OF MY LIFE
We got married in October (2009) in Paradise Cove Boutique hotel, and well I don’t know where to start with this review as it was one of the nicest places I have ever visited. It was only myself and my now husband on our own, with no friends/family and yes I was a little more nervous than I had originally thought I would be, but the staff were just unreal, so so helpful and put us at ease immediately.
We arrived tired after a long flight, and bear in mind the taxi from the airport takes about 45/60 mins to reach the north of the island, Anse La Raie. We were greeted by Sabine (weddings coordinator) and the office manager. The took us into the beautiful seated area, where everything is very tastefully colourful, lots of lime green, pink and orange accessories. They went through the details, times, for breakfast, dinner, lunch etc. We were shown to our room (we stayed in one of the junior suites) which was located on the ground floor, meaning we could walk directly from our room/balcony to the cove in like 30 seconds, (please bear in mind that this is not their private beach which is shielded from see breezes and is totally private.), absolute bliss. The rooms are amazing, a little on the dark side, but sooo beautiful with a living room, bathroom, separate toilet and the most gigantic bed I have ever seen or slept in. The porter decorated our bed on two occasions with our initials and again with “happy wedding” on our wedding night, it was magnificent. We stayed in a Junior suite which benefits from an extra living room compared to the 1001 nights room so is recommended. Our room had a large flat screen TV with a range of satellite channels, DVD player and minibar (which gets refilled daily) included in the all inclusive. All the rooms have a beach view as far as we could make out but the ones nearer the cove are prettier (view wise) than the ones nearer the road entrance of course.
