Good Points

Lovely setting at end of line of hotels
Small intimate feeling
Rooms excellent and all with sea/beach view
Staff very friendly and attentive
Great and varied food
Quiet beach with good watersports


Bad Points

Some building work Aug 04 - possibly completed by now.
Low numbered rooms to be avoided as they are closest to building work (1 - 14)


General Comments

Sands Hotel is an excellent small hotel - very suitable for the quieter holiday- honeymoons/couples well catered for as there is few or no children at the resort - there is evening entertainment, but it is low key and finished by 10.30 for those who wish to sleep!!
Food wonderful - each night had a theme, with a menu based or buffet style food.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Very Very cheap to hire a taxi for the day - barter a price before you get in - taxis always available as they just parked outside the main gate.
Watersports good but underused. Beach excellent for snorkelling and swimming and very safe.
Although they say in the brochures there is a dive school on site, you actually use the La Paroque 'Sundivers' dive-school facilities. The school is excellent and friendly - completed our PADI Open Water qualification there in 4 days leaving another few days to do more diving and improve your skills.
