Stayed here five nights here and were very well looked after. The staff are all very friendly and accomodating... for example: we were allowed to check in to our room after a very early arrival, also after a few days, the boathouse and restaurant staff knew us by name, the sous-chef is also a great character! There are plenty of... More

We can only confirm what all the other positive reviews of the Sands Resort have said. From the moment we arrived and saw the view from the reception, we knew we had made the right choice for our honeymoon. Even better than the catalog pictures! Throughout our stay the service was exceptional, from the friendly waiters, to the bar staff,... More

It is our 2nd stay at Sands Resort & Spa. We got married there & spent our honeymoon there 3 years ago (we did post a review about this stay in April 2010). After such a memorable 1st experience at this hotel, we decided to return 3 years later to celebrate our 3rd year anniversary. Our 2nd stay was as... More

We have just returned from our 3rd stay at the Sands, and I can honestly say I very much look forward to writing a 4th, 5th, 6th review! The Sands is now our 'go-to' location when we need a week of relaxation - it's a small hotel compared with some of the behemoths nearby, but that just means personal service... More

We chose the Sands Resort based on the many good reviews here at Trip Advisor and it lived up to expectations in no uncertain way. All of the positive reviews that you find here do not exaggerate the quality of the place. I concur with Paula R who suggests in her review that it is important to communicate your needs... More

Stayed here for one night, all the other hotels were full so this was the last one and we got a room. Very pleasant place on the beach front, lovely rooms overlooking the ocean. The food was top notch, make sure you book the lobster BBQ on the beach, otherwise it gets full quickly. Didn't have time to try the... More

Hotel was very conveniently located, Port Louis was relatively close by, beaches were amazing and lots of activities around (and to see). Beaches and hotel exteriors were well kept, rooms spacious and tidy. Special mention to the staff, who were more than accommodating to every need, and made us feel like home. A perfect place to have paradise island type... More

A truly dedicated workforce all geared to making your holiday as special to you as you want it to be. All you had to do is ask and they would bend over backwards to make sure your requests were met.
