A lovely stay with family
Enjoyable stay with family, had two double bedrooms with beautiful views. AC worked well and staff were great. Breakfast was a bit of a mixed experience but food in general was lovely and worth the money for lunch. Drinks were also good both alcoholic and non. Would definitely return and the kids loved the pools and the kids club. Staff across the board are friendly and helpful with a real relaxed vibe. Some small changes to this hotel and it would easily be a 5 star. The usual drop towels at 6/7am was visible but for the most part there was plenty of beds for all across the hotel either poolside or by the beach. Will definitely return again.

fake!!!
No noise cancellation in rooms. Can hear golden bay and Sandybay bomblasting music at the same time! I don’t as not given my room I booked for executive sea view. Instead they gave me an inferior room overlooking the pool, right opposite golden bay and a side view. After much debate and me requesting a full refund they gave me the room I actually booked. They viewed this as an “upgrade”. All week I just hated the place and the staff and really wanted to leave. They are deceptive, misleading and hope by giving you an inferior room you won’t notice. I stayed for one week prior, staying on the opposite side with a room on top of air conditioning units. Very loud with a side view which unlike the second stay was more accurately described in the booking. But had I known about the loud air conditioning in the ad, I most definitely would not have booked there. I hear Lordos is so much better. Don’t book at Sandy bay.

Hotel staff generally were ok but we had some problems at check-in in regards to pricing as other guests that were relatives of ours booked later and got a better price than us. We escalated this and asked for management to get back to us to see if they would honour the price but they never got back to us.

Where to start when writing a review of this awesome place? shall I start by reviewing the great team at the reception who welcome you always with greetings and try to accommodate your needs and questions? or by reviewing the great team at the breakfast/dinning who receive people with a great smile? and is always there to make sure you have the best time spent. This hotel by far is one of the best hotels we have been to, super nice , very comfy, extremely clean, staff are awesome. only 10mins away from downtown, serviced by two very frequent public buses (424 and 425). It has a magnificant access to the beach, also has a wide and very clean , crystal clear pool with nice arrangement of seatings surrounding it.
