The hype
Families love the space and grounds, but everyone agrees the rooms are tired and overpriced for the finish quality.
Paradise Point Resort & Spa
$200-450 / לילה
הזמן את זה אם You want a sprawling, self-contained island escape where your door opens directly to the outdoors, not a hallway.
למה אנשים אוהבים את זה
- Bungalow-style rooms mean no elevators or shared corridors
- Five pools spread across 44 acres so none feel overcrowded
- Direct access to Mission Bay for paddleboarding and bonfires
סיכום מהיר: It’s a 1960s vacation village that feels like a nostalgic summer camp—charming and relaxed, but showing its age with thin walls and the occasional spider.
סקור על ידי @sincerelysusye: My stay at Paradise Point was the perfect tropical escape. I loved waking up to the serene Mission Bay views and wandering through the lush gardens. Having the Barefoot Bar and marina right on the property meant we never had to leave. Highly recommend for a romantic getaway!

Reality check
You are paying for the 44-acre island grounds, not the room interiors, which often feature worn furniture, musty smells, or peeling paint.
- You hate high-rise hotels and elevators
- You are traveling with kids who need grass to run on
- You want to park your car near your door (motel-style convenience)
ניקיון וטחזוקה
6
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Many guests report missed spots or having to request service multiple times.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but dated. Watch for mildew in grout lines and rust on fixtures.
- Maintenance: Showing age. Reports of peeling paint, termite damage in wood frames, and drafty doors.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality, occasionally worn or stained.
- Odors & scents: Some rooms have a lingering musty/damp smell due to the proximity to water and age of buildings.

שאלות נפוצות וטיפים נסתרים
הכל מה שאתה באמת צריך לדעת לפני ההזמנה
Is the pool heated?
Yes, all 5 pools are heated, including the adults-only lagoon pool.
Can I walk to the beach?
You are ON a beach (bay beach), but the ocean waves of Mission Beach are a 5-minute drive or 20-minute bike ride away.
Is there a resort fee?
Yes, approximately $53/night, covering wifi, pool access, and some activities like mini-golf.
How much is parking?
Self-parking is steep at $49/night. There is virtually no free street parking nearby.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, but with a heavy fee: ~$169 per stay. Great for dogs due to the grassy grounds.
Is it becoming a Margaritaville?
Plans were approved in late 2025 for a major redevelopment, but branding is still in flux. Expect construction or updates during 2026.
טיפים פנימיים
- ✨
Climb the observation tower for a 360-degree view of Mission Bay—great for sunset photos.
- ✨
Buy your own firewood and s'mores supplies at a grocery store before arriving; the on-site market markup is high.
- ✨
The 'duck feeding' is a hit with kids; bring some quarters for the feed machines near the ponds.
5 דברים שכדאי לדעת לפני שתצא
💡The 'beach' is on the bay, meaning the water is calm but can be murky/weedy compared to the ocean.
💡You might spot a skunk or raccoon at night—you are essentially in a park.
💡The 'bungalows' are often duplexes or quadplexes, not standalone cabins.
💡Wifi can be spotty in the far corners of the resort due to the spread-out layout.
💡Termite damage has been reported in some older door frames—inspect your room upon entry.
