Our stay at the Sands was ok, but fell short of expectations. The rooms were pretty tired looking and not kept well to actually be a 5 star resort. Staff was inconsistent, some were great but others just seemed not too eager to help. I will say that both those negative aspects are contributed by a lot of guests that just don’t seem to care; saw people throwing garbage everywhere, trashing rooms (sad for cleaning team), and being rude to the staff. Traveling with kids is challenging but no excuse to not be respectful.

Second year in a row coming to this hotel. Us and our three children. Amazing hotel! The facilities, the super friendly and helpful sfaff! The location and the proximity to the village. The wonderful pools and the gorgeous beach. The variety of the food at the breakfast, the spa and the new option to have the massage on the beach as part of the spa. Love this place!

Even though I ordered room service, I had to wait over two hours. I contacted them twice, but they were not very sincere in their responses. I felt sorry for the children because they were hungry. There are plenty of pools and play areas for children. It's a five-star hotel for kids and a three-star hotel for adults. Most of the staff were smiling and full of hospitality.

Great Facilities and Service, but Lacking Evening

Almost everything about our stay was excellent. The pools were fantastic and a real highlight for the whole family. Breakfast was good and well worth the price. The staff at the Flying Market restaurant and in the kids club were exceptionally friendly and provided great service. The only downsides were the slow-running water and inconsistent shower temperature in our room, which unfortunately were not fixed despite informing the staff, and the lack of evening activities — the hotel feels completely dead at night with nothing to do.

Great family resort.

The Sands is a great resort for families and especially those with younger children. The pools are great and also there is a good playground area. We loved the rooms with their own pools,these were also great for young families. I'd highly recommend this resort.
