We have just got married at the Saunton sands hotel and what can I say it was an amazing day, yes the rooms can get hot at times and the bathrooms can be small but if I can fit 7 women all getting ready in one room plus go to the loo in an oversized meringue then it's not to... More

As a 'local', I have always seen this as a special hotel, I have stayed in, eaten in and even got married in a brend hotel, always fab. My wedding anniversary last weekend was a total disappointment! :( My meal was cold ! That I could forgive, the attitude from restaurant manager made me so angry that I should have... More

We are sorry to hear of your disappointment. Having fully investigated the problems you encountered during your stay at the hotel, your evening meal was offered to be replaced however you declined this. We feel that our adjustment to your account which was agreed and accepted by yourself was a final settlement to the issues raised. More

We know this Hotel from passing by numerous times over the years and decided to give it a try. Booking was difficult. We wanted 2 nights but only 1 dinner & 1 breakfast which proved too difficult for the website and on contacting reservations by telephone, the latter of which would not allow a room only booking. We had to... More

The staff at Saunton Sands really make this hotel something to treasure. We had a personal family disaster & could'nt keep our first booking, so lost the original sea-view room. But managed to re-book within a few days, but with no sea-view. However, we could change rooms after just one night & were given a superb family suite with lovely... More

I stayed here as I was attending a wedding at the venue. The hotel itself is fine, from the outside not much to look at but inside its nice (albeit old-fashioned), and the view is spectacular from the front. I was in a single room, overlooking the swimming pool roof, which was still expensive at £90 p/n. The room itself... More

We are aware of these problems at the hotel. When weddings take place the hotel allocates wedding guests to the bedrooms above the function rooms. The hotel is situated in a quiet and peaceful location and relative low noise levels can seem to be more apparent. There are only 7 bedrooms out of 100 that are affected by this problem.... More

We last stayed here 10 years ago and since then the hotel has been updated. Our room (No.325) has been refurbished and newly painted, I know this since there was a bit of little strip of masking tape behind the door hinge! The bed was very comfortable and had good quality sheets. The breakfast was good standard fare and the... More

Last min book found on line chosen more for location than the hotel. This place feels a little dated. The room was large but a teeny narrow bathroom which seems a shame when they had so much room to play with. The outlook onto the beach is beautiful and the location wins it most of its points. We had a... More

We used to stay in this hotel when our children were very small. We returned this year and stayed in one of the appartments adjacent to the hotel. This was a great option for our family. The appartment was very spacious with lovely views over the beach. There is a large living room, well equipped kitchen, and good sized master... More
