Stayed here on a Saturday night. Room was spacious and clean. Nice and quiet BUT if you want to go into Torquay by cab - FORGET IT! The taxi service for Torquay is non-existent, even the restaurant staff are frustrated by it. Our cab was 30 minutes late and the one booked for return trip didn't show up at all.... More

Dear Foodie255100, Thank you for your recent post. I sincerly apologize for the local taxi service. They occassisonaly let us down. Of course, this is very frustracting to all of us. Business owners and operators are strongly voicing their opinions. Over the last few months I have attended a couple of taxi forum meetings. I understand the state governement is... More

Very quiet rooms and well laid out resort. Easy walk to the beach. Very friendly staff. Bar menu could go with a few more non-fried options. Overall a very relaxing weekend. I would go again.

We stayed in a standard King room which was well layed out, spacious, clean & modern. Staff are all friendly, warm, hospitable and really helpful. It's hard to fault anything about this resort. Highlight for us was enjoying the buffet breakfast overlooking the gorgeous golf course. Huge selection of foods for breakfast, which were all fresh, fully stocked and beautifully... More

Stayed two nights at the Peppers in a standard double room during Easter Weekend. Given that their rates were reasonable (not inflated like some other places in Torquay), I was expecting a ”catch”. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised. The property is clean and well-kept, and the rooms spacious with good quality amenities : e.g. IPOD sound system, TV, water kettle... More

Firstly, the Sands golf course is a good one and secondly the hotel is good too - it exceeded my expectations. The hotel is a short walk away from a lovely beach. It is a short drive away from Torquay itself (which is a nice little place). The food in the hotel was good and the staff very good.

Peppers is about 2 mms from town and very quiet with a nice stretch of beach across the road. as commented on... More

Recently stayed for 3 nights and found this location perfect for me as it's very quiet and away from the busiest parts of Torquay. I also prefer this end of the beach as it's less crowded and from the Sands it's only a short walk over the road. The room was lovely and clean and the staff very helpful and... More

On check in the Receptonist was welcoming and always willing to assist including cutting tag off my new dress for me. The night Room Service Attendant has a big smile and was happy at 2am.

We loved our stay at Peppers. Our view was amazing from our room and the staff were all very friendly and only too happy to help us. The pool was closed early as it was a public holiday. This was the only downfall as we didn't realise! Would definately stay here again as the location was fantastic, 2 minute walk... More
