A fantastic hotel

Such a fab location, within walking distance of the main town and offering spectacular beaches. Great facilities on offer; we made full use of the gym and the pool. Breakfast was first class and the staff were friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The bedroom was very nice, clean, and had the best nights sleep in the comfortable bed. Had a very good breakfast. Dog friendly hotel, it was great to be able to find such a lovely hotel that would accomodate my dog.

In line with 3 star hotels, great property for families. They should invest in airconditioner's as it is only going to get hotter throughout summer

We loved the Sands Resort Hotel. The staff were so friendly and accomodating. Great facilities including indoor pool, games area with table tennis, pool and air hockey and a fantastic gym. Our room was amazing with separate sleeping area and tv for the kids and a massive, extremely comfortable bed in the main part of the room. Breakfast was lovely. Would visit again and highly recommend it.

Amazing hotel

Amazing resort from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond to help me during my stay. I can’t thank you enough. Hotel is spotlessly clean throughout and the pools, gym and spa facilities are great. The views are fantastic. Honestly couldn’t fault this hotel. But the main thing for me was the team there, absolutely outstanding!!!

We stayed here after my mothers funeral in Cornwall so weren’t particularly in the holiday mood. But we were impressed with the amount of things they had going on for the kids. The room was great as were the choices on the breakfast buffet. But not much choice for evening food so we ate out both nights. Would definitely go again.

Very welcome stay

The staff of the hotel was super friendly and welcoming. The place has a great fun park,outdoor pool with the slide, and this awesome little maze for kids, which will leave parents thankfull. Children enjoyed outdoor and indoor swimming pool, with a steam room for adults and +14, including breakfast which was very nice. I would say, very a great hotel to go with a family. All the guest were very respectful to each other. We enjoyed our stay in this place. P.S staff super lovely saying that we can stay here all day and use the facilities after we signed out.

Went away for our wedding anniversary. Greeted by really lovely and friendly staff, we arrived at 12.30 and popped in to find out if we needed to register our car, we were told our room was actually ready and able to check in early which was a bonus. They explained how everything worked and we booked a slot in the pool for later in the afternoon. Upon entering the room we were very impressed with the size of it and the volume of storage. Plenty of tea and coffee, and a little fridge too. My husband then went off to use the gym before we went for a swim, the pool is lovely and warm and the surroundings very clean. Anytime we passed the reception team they were friendly and checked with us that everything was ok and if we needed anything to just ask. Parts of the hotel are a little old and outdated, but it didn't make it feel any less nice. We used the bar facilities on a few occasions, the bar staff are nice and friendly and bar prices are pretty reasonable. There is a lovely lounge area to enjoy your drinks, including a little terrace looking out along the cliffs and sea. In the lounge is a TV which you are able to use as you please. We had no issues whilst staying here, we were able to use the pool numerous times in the day due to it being quieter. We had a walk around the outdoor areas, and we're pleasantly surprised with how much there is to do for families. We will definitely be returning in the summer of "24" with our children, we feel they would absolutely love it here.
