We loved the kids club, splash park and our pool access room though it was looking a little tired. The Buffet breakfast could be better compared to other resorts.

Lovely resort! I feel the resort is best suited to families with children under 7 - as everything shuts down so early. Lots of babies and young children and programs for the littles. The nightly performances and live shows were wonderful room was spacious clean and felt like a taste of home - loads of room to spread out kids stuff and still have space leftover Food was average but there were awesome restaurants when you walk down the beach The beach was spectacular! Warm sea water and clean!

It was a happy 4 nights and 5 days. All the staff were warm and provided perfect service. I stayed in a full access family room with 4-year-old and 6-year-old boys, and when I play in the water, I play in the water.

We stayed in this hotel for four days. Overall it was very good. I recommend this hotel especially to families with children. The is playroom for kids and other mini water park facilities that kids enjoy to be at. Drinks for some reason are significantly overpriced at this hotel, almost twice as expensive as other hotels/places.

We are a family of 4 (children aged 6 and 9) who have spent four nights at the sands. We were extremely satisfied with the cleaning, activities for the children and easy access to the local town. The pool area was really nice for mixed age groups. The beach was child-friendly and clean. It was easy to get sunbeds (4 pieces) even though we arrived at 10.30 am to the children's pool. The breakfast buffet was nice and the service was also satisfactory.

If you have kids this is a great option! The mini waterpark was great fun. The beach front is also nice and there are loads of sunbeds as well as three pools. Super kid friendly and our teen two-bedroom suite with bunk beds for the kids was perfect.
