Pembroke Holidays

Property showing its age but the experience is elevated by the amazing staff

Nice little hotel perfectly situated and offering a magnificant sight over the harbour and fort st. Angelo.

Service was fantastic, Rooms outdated. Air Con didn’t work. No plugs for charging phones and hair dryer in bathrooms

Such a special night at xara palace - I was able to get an upgrade for my room and am so grateful. The room had a beautiful private balcony and hot tub overlooking Malta, which is an experience that I will never forget. Staff were wonderful and accommodating. The pool is a few minutes away in the car - the hotel provide a lovely driver as a when you wish to use this facility. Staying in the silent city of Mdina was a way to truly capture the essence of this special place

We just returned from our trip. Radisson golden sands is a lovely hotel. I had emailed them prior asking for us to stay in the middle tower but they were full and allowed us to change rooms the next day. We were in the sunset suite room first which we found quite dated and there was a smell in the kitchen area. We were then moved to the twilight tower which is much closer to the pool, restaurants and beach. This room was so much better. The staff were very accommodating and helpful especially Chetan. The only thing I would say is they don't have half board and not enough vegetarian selection in the main buffet restaurant in the evening. So eating at the italian or indian restaurant does get a bit repetitive. Another thing is that the hotel lacks daytime and evening entertainment. There was also not much music being played.Pool side food and drinks were good. Breakfast was fantastic. Lots of choice. The beach is very close either access via stairs or lifts. Pool chairs at the beach or pool cannot be reserved which is good. So we didn't have to get up at a silly hour to get any. Any unattended towels get removed in 30 minutes but ours got removed in 5 minutes. My son noticed and luckily I managed to get the towels back and place them again otherwise we would have lost our chairs if I was 5 seconds late. This happened twice to us and I spoke to security as they were the ones who removed them. They did apologise but it is something to be aware of. Overall the hotel is excellent.
