Cleanest resort we have stayed in , rooms are cleaned everyday and to a high standard. No wonder we come for five weeks every year. Thanks Sands for a wonderful... More

The next morning, the duty manager called and told me that they need the room, and we would need to move. We spent the... More

Rooms were clean, the pool was nice, the beach was enjoyable, the location is excellent and the kids had a great time, but at 200$ for a self-catering accommodation, the hotel is really overpriced considering the fact at it includes nothing but the room which are not designed for cooking....

Stayed here as part of a work trip and was stunned by the location, our room had a beach view and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore was the perfect way to wake up of a morning, not to mention the benefit of a balcony being ideal for relaxing with a drink after a busy day.

The staff and management team were always available and ready to assist when ever we needed help. The entertainment team had us eating from their hands. I am ready to go back soon. The pools and relaxing area are well equipped. The restaurants and bar staff as well as the food was great.
