Zoetry Paraiso De La Bonita

This resort is very small with one small pool and a very smalll beach. There is no volleyball and limited beach chairs and activities. They are also experiencing a bad sea weed problem which prevents you from swimming in the ocean unless you want to walk through the muck. It also smells real bad. Save your money and go to Secrets Maroma or Now Sapphire.

Zoetry went above and beyond all of my expectations. Every detail was incredible. I would recommend this place in a second. I recently had my wedding here and it couldn't have been more perfect. It really is a special place and I feel like these gems are hard to find. The rooms are absolutely incredible. The decor is unique and fun and the rooms are gigantic. The personal two person hot tub with candles is a nice touch. The balcony had an incredible view of the ocean and palm trees. We loved laying out on the hammock and listening to the ocean breeze. We also loved having room service breakfast setup on the balcony! One of my favorite things about this place is that a lot of the time it feels like you are the only guests at the entire resort. The staff knows your name and your preferences everywhere you go. It's so quiet and peaceful and has such a good energy. If you're looking for parties and night clubs and pool foam parties...this is not your resort. If you're looking for relaxation, quiet, amazing atmosphere, incredible food, super clean rooms, pristine grounds, personal service, and positive energy - Zoetry will be right up your alley! The wedding coordinator Maria is INCREDIBLE. She paid attention to every single detail and went above and beyond to make our whole experience magical. She threw in so many extra things and we felt like she was there for our every need. By the end of our week stay she felt like a friend. We were so sad to leave! She was professional, personal, attentive, so friendly, extremely sharp, full of good ideas, and so willing to help! I honestly can't say enough good about her. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her plan our special once in a lifetime day. We literally wouldn't have changed anything about our entire wedding experience - it was perfect. And all of our guests 100% agreed. The beach - People in these reviews seem to complain about the water and the seaweed... yeah there's seaweed. So get over it. Go to a Caribbean island if you're looking to have crystal clear waters and swim with the fish. Zoetry worked constantly all day every day to clean the seaweed and keep the beach looking incredible. We even kayaked on the water - which was included in the price! The seaweed didn't bother us at all. It's natural. But overall the beach was incredible. Soft white sand, super comfortable beach chairs, and amazing service from our beach waiter - Miguel! He took care of our every need and was so incredibly personal and friendly. Every day we looked forward to seeing him. He went above and beyond to make us comfortable. He remembered our drink preferences, set us all up as a family together every day, and was constantly trying to happily meet and exceed all of our needs. A last note about safety... From the second we got to the airport and got in the car with our personal zoetry driver we felt safe. He was kind, greeted us with champagne and cool towels, and quickly got us to the resort. It was like an oasis. We never felt scared or worried. And the quality of the food was impeccable. They pay extreme attention to cleanliness and every dish looked like a piece of art. Overall I HIGHLY recommend this place. I feel like I need to visit for a yearly zen vacation. Incredible job Zoetry and I am so happy I chose this resort for an incredible, magical wedding experience. We will definitely be back.

Trip started out great for bout 15 mins, Nice transfer vehicle, a new model Lincoln was waiting for us as we walked out of airport. Driver was great, he had cold champagne for our transfer ride to hotel. Then truck broke down on Hwy during torrential rainstorm at 10pm, my husband got out to try to help, but there was no tools, so we had to wait for a van to pic us up. Dinner- there was 2 couples and 2 kids. We asked for a table of 6, they said it would take 40 mins to set up! We got seated at 8pm, we didn't get our meals until 10:45, place was not busy. One dish came out for 1 child, and then another 30 mins later. We felt terrible telling them to wait till everyone gets their meals. Falling asleep at the table. Was not 5star food. Gave this resort 1 more try and it failed our expectations for dinner. We spent the rest of our evenings at the other hotels, which costs $10us one way, but the Secrets & Breathless hotels were a wonderful and we looked forward to our dinners away from Zoetry. Beach-worst beach ever, I've never gone anywhere south and didn't want to put my feet in the water. Here, I took one look at beach & water and went back to sit by boring pool. No music at all, not even soothing music. Beach had seaweed all over and the water was so gross. Room-I asked repeatedly to put water, vodka, gin in my supposedly "stocked fridge" Never happened, I even left notes on fridge to please restock. Beds were comfortable but we wanted a king bed, they wanted us to pay more, I think another $100/night really! The most money I've ever spend, not worth $1000 let alone $3700!!!!!each!!! Never ever ever recommend this place, unless your close to dead. Oh it was relaxing, every time I looked at my husband he was sleeping, in the chase, in the pool, in a chair, at dinner, really
