Both of the Paradisus hotels are desirable addresses, but frankly, if forced to choose, we'd opt for the Paradisus Palma Real.
Fodor's "This luxury all-inclusive is a visual showstopper especially its central plaza by night, which sparkles under dramatic lighting." Full review

You won't need to upgrade, but if you choose the adults-only Royal Service, you'll get to experience the smashing new contemporary Royal Club lounge and restaurant.

Rough Guide "This resort clearly thinks it’s something rather special – and it’s not far wrong."
Star Service "It lacks the facilities of the Barcelo Bavaro and Bavaro Princess but offers far greater elegance and intimacy, and plenty more room to breathe; thus, it appeals to solitude-seekers." Full review
