Can't wait to go back
This place has 9 open lanes and told us it'd be an hour and a half wait.
I've been going to this place since when my kids were little and it has evolved so much over the years. It has really changed for the better with all the upgrades. From the standard bowling to axe throwing. It is a fantastic place to have parties as there's plenty f space, they cater the food and the service is always good. Recently we had a Christmas party there as everyone wanted a place to congregate and have some fun at the same time. No stuffy Christmas party here. For years we would play hockey across the street at RMU Island Sports Center then stroll across the street and have wings and a beer. There is plenty of parking for large groups and it is conveniently located close to major roadways. In the summer there is a sandy beach area along the river where they have a bar and stage for bands in the summer. If you are boating stop on by, dock your boat and have lunch and enjoy the beach.
Food sucks
I am extremely disappointed in my experience at Paradise Island Bowl and Beach. The workers are Racist and accused me of wanting a free party and free service when I all I asked is for some organization, correct information and pricing, respect and human decency. The workers from the party host to the apparent “owner” who I don’t even believe is the owner they just refuse to tell me who the actual owner is so I can take this higher up was so unprofessional and disrespectful with a nasty attitude toward a paying customer. Truly a disgrace, paid over $400 for a 2 hour birthday party having to run down our party host who was clueless on everything and no where to be found when she was needed to HOST THE PARTY (her job). Then to get to the end and get a $600 bill because they thought they could’ve overcharge and I wouldn’t notice. The pregnant manager was beyond disrespectful and so nasty to my family and I and the event coordinator Ian and other managers accused me of wanting a free party instead of listening to the concerns and the issues that were beyond the money. I am truly so disappointed in this experience and that was my first and LAST time at paradise island I will NOT recommend this place to anyone. How could I want a free party when I still left there paying $450? I just want to be heard so I will post my review here in hopes it helps someone else to stay far away from this place!
I loved it it's more for adults but we had a great time with some good drinks
This spot offers the perfect blend of relaxation and fun, making it an ideal place to kick back with family and friends. The casual atmosphere creates a welcoming vibe, complemented by delicious food and a well-rounded bar selection. Whether you're here for a meal or just to enjoy drinks, it's a great place to unwind and enjoy good company.
Pretty good experience! 2 hours of bowling for $17. The only downside is that the alley was out of order for the first 15 minutes.
They did not issue a refund when my family didn’t even get to bowl. Patronizing staff.
Called in to get information and the staff on the phone were not even remotely professional and did not seem like they really cared if I brought my group in or not. So we decided to go elsewhere.

Great night out and plenty of fun things for the whole family.

Ax throwing was fun. Great instructor on how to.
Service was very slow, food good.
Very beautiful I will be back lots of entertainment and fun
Editing my one star review (2022) to 4 now (9/30/24) because the employees and wait staff deserve it.
They've turned a corner it seems. Food is decent, service was fantastic, the employees actually care now and should be commendated.
2022-
Bad night.
Starts with 45 minutes wait for bar food, people walked in ten minutes after us and they were friggin done eating by the time we got our food.
Kids wanted to play games, they're out of tokens. How does this even happen? Stupidity apathy and piss poor planning is my guess.
Hey let's sit and watch the retro music videos... Whatever... They announce their piddly 50/50 raffle and turn the music down but back up when it's over. Awesome. Everybody is leaving disappointed now.
We're driving to friggin Homestead and going to Dave and Buster's next Friday.
We booked a kids birthday party here. Ava was our party host and she was awesome. She made it really easy and I think I told her several times that she made it worth the money. The kids had a ton of fun. I only did 4 stars, as I had to follow up the Friday before with questions. No one had reached out for final count and I wanted to confirm that we were good to go. I did get a quick response back that was friendly and able to answer all my questions. I would recommend for an easy birthday party!
