6/10 Good

Not suitable for peace & quite & older couples!
Owing to the design of building you cannot escape the uncontrolled noise of children playing in the swimming pools. Definitely would not recommend to older couples. Perfect for young families. Breakfast good & varied. Reception not very helpful or informative. However the lower ranks very pleasant. This is not the Golden Sands we remembered & enjoyed in 1980, but time moves on!! Not the hotel’s fault but the beach has all but disappeared.

6/10 Good

The stay was alright although I wasn't offered the VIP service. Nothing spectacular aside from the beach and wet park for kids. There are AC charging facilities at the hotel but have no instructions how to operate it and checking online for those that had used it before states that the its pretty difficult to operate it using a non common app plus the fees is super pricey (not recommended to use)
