We had one of the best family holidays so far at this hotel (now with a toddler). The pools, the water park and the kids club kept the kids entertained every day. Many activities for kids as well as adults, in the hotel and in the surrounding area. Great selection of food as well. Hotel is well equipped with all the amenities you'd need. The staff were amazingly helpful and polite. My son got surprised for his birthday with a room set up and a cake, which we hadn't even mentioned specifically to them, we thought was a beautiful gesture by The Sands. Sad to end our wonderful holiday here, but leaving already with hopes to be back.

Lovely set up to the room and the resort. Perfect for families but zoned so adults can also have some nice time. Great selection of food and lots of thoughtful touches around the resort. Easy to get a sunbed at pool and beach

Really enjoyed our stay in a swim up room. Staff were all so kind, helping me learn to say thank you in their language. Our room was near the end of one block and the shower water took a full five minutes to get warm, but knowing that it was fine. I can’t wait to go back.

We really loved our stay at The Sands. The staff were fabulous, the hotel was immaculate and it was all really well thought-out with everything you could need in one place. We would definitely come back to The Sands. The only area that could possibly be improved was the breakfast. Sometimes food - particularly fruit and yoghurt was left uncovered, which attracted flies and put me off eating there.

We stayed here as a family with children and really enjoyed our stay. The kids’ club is excellent, with many games, computer games, a small cinema room, and fun activities. Our son even joined a Thai boxing class and loved it. The pools are large and have many facilities for children, the beach is beautiful, and our room was very nice and clean. A great hotel for families!

Family-friendly resort. It’s a pity that the water park (slide, kids water splash, lazy river) has limited use times. This needs to improve. Kids Club was big with 5-star staff. Breakfast was average.
