Playa Paraiso Hotels

Scruffy, rundown little place, many closed down bars and shops, half built apartment blocks. No seafront cafes or bars, just a coastal path. Most (of the very few open) bars British with a couple of exceptions. Shops that are there sell touristy tat. One supermarket and a chemist. Absolutely nothing of interest, we spent a fortune on trips out to get away from the place.

the resort is almost non existent although there are obviously plans to develop it with roads between it and Las Americas being upgraded. It\'s lucky if there are 8 commercial premises including small pubs eateries and shops and if you are staying in the local hotels it is quite a trek up the cliff paths. There is a small sandy beach in a cove near to the Riu Buena Vista hotel which looked peaceful but other than that there is nothing. There are regular buses which take you to other resorts. Really if staying here you have to be prepared to enjoy your hotel facilities or make yourself mobile
