Lovely resort but old fashioned shabby apartment. Pity, it could be really good if the owners cared about the condition and standard of the property. Tatty hole when an integrated microwave used to be for example, dirty shelf base, needs a clean and replacing.
The location and Lido is lovely but the property is not!

I enjoyed a 5 night break at Sands. A little apprehensive due to several negative reviews however my experience was very positive. The rooms are a good size and have everything you need including full fridge freezer and dishwasher. The entire complex is very clean and is thoughtfully laid out. I enjoyed the lane swimming and the surrounding area is perfect for running. I also used the gym several times. Shops and restaurants are within a 5-10 minute walk. A shout out to all the staff, you are amazing.
Would I return - definitely

I booked a Superior Apartment, 1 Bedroom, Beach View through Expedia. In reality, there is no beach in this area, so the description was misleading from the start.

The apartment itself was in unacceptable condition:

Dirty rooms and terrace.

Sofa so badly stained it was unusable.

Hot room with no proper ventilation – the back window could not be opened due to extremely loud pile-driving from nearby construction, and foul odors from rotting plants and animal excrement directly outside.

19 stairs to the apartment with no lift or assistance, which was not mentioned.

I reported these issues immediately and asked to cancel, but the receptionist, while friendly, was not helpful. I could not remain in the accommodation.

After a difficult process with Expedia, I eventually received a full refund, but only after repeated escalations.

Travelers should be aware: this property is run down, misrepresented, and not suitable for a comfortable stay.

“Worst hotel experience ever. No AC in the middle of summer, filthy room with stains and a foul odor. We had to leave and book another hotel just to survive the night. Management’s response? Refuse to refund the unused nights and act like it’s our fault. Complete scam — avoid at all costs! #HotelFail #TravelNightmare #BadService #NeverAgain”

The service from the staff at check in was spot on and took very little time. The room was surprisingly large and had everything you would need. The bed was comfy and there was a bath as well as a shower which pleased the wife!! Overall we had a short but very pleasant stay, so i would recommend it.

Food choice & quality was very poor (had to eat out & several friend very sick after food), restaurant didn’t accept card (who carries cash in 2024). Pool was freezing. Rooms not grassy on time. No bar to drink in. No atmosphere. Glad I stayed here as a base for sports because of I’d stayed just for a holiday I’d have been bored.

The room (small apartment) was a generous size but the bed was very uncomfortable and the wind was noisy against the old windows. As was the beeping from machinery backing onto the property from the early hours. The room needs updating as not just were fixtures and fitting dates but some were leaky/loose. The balcony was a lovely space quite private. The layout was pleasant too and was quiet apart from the work behind the building.

Flat was outdated and looked like it had not been renovated since the 90s. Floor boards broken and swinging up and down when walked on. Bath tub had cigarette burns- put me off having a bath and showering. Sofa was dirty and looked like it had not been cleaned or changed since the hotel first opened. I did not want to sit on it.
No amenities in the hotel such as salt and pepper or even water. Room did not have AC- very hot night, no fan. Had to go ask reception for a fan. However it was delivered promptly.
Positives: staff were very nice and polite. Easy to check in and out. Close to the beach but not a pretty beach.
Island bar/restaurant charged for sun chairs which I did not like- if you are a member of the hotel you should not be charged or be charged a reduced rate such as €1-2 not €6.

Late November Getaway

Stayed 26 Nov - 01 Dec. No.56 Beachfront (with Seaview). Hotel Private beach was excellent as was on the doorstep, had loads of fish in it that swam up to you and were entertaining when you fed them with bread and the free use of Paddle Boards and Kayak was a bonus.

The apartment was nice and as advertised - Only issues we had were the mattress was a little uncomfortable (but that could be put down to personal preeference) and the lack of airconditioning.

The staff were helpful and courteous. We didn't use any of the restaurants so cant comment.

We used the Mai Thai Bar at the end of our firsr night, which was a Saturday, and we had a blast.

The hotel in general had a nice relaxed feel to it, was quite quiet which is expected at this time of year, and was nicely located away from the hustle and bustle.

Hammonds Sports Bar is right across the road from Reception. Hiperdino Supermarket is a further 5 minute dander and then the main areas of bars/restaurants are another 5 or so minute dander. These can be walked to via the seafront too but will take a little longer and if dark will require some sort of torch for a small section.

We would definitely recommend to others to come.........Enjoy!!

We were only here for one night. Our flight was delayed and we arrived so late it was dark and no one was available to help us take our bags to our rooms plus all the restaurants and shops were closed. I had four very tired hungry children and we got lost in the resort trying to find our room at the other side of the resort from the entrance. A bit of help would have gone a long way.
The hotel airport transfer was more than double the price of another on line transfer I booked.
And there’s only two sun loungers per room which is a pain when you are a party larger than two.
However the hotel was nice. The apartment was one of the smallest but a really good size. There were plenty of pools and we had a great time. We would definitely consider going again

Sands Beach is a nice place. I wouldn't say its a 4-star resort anymore, it would have been when it was built though. They will no doubt have been struggling due to the pandemic, however some aspects (quality) of my accommodation were a little disappointing and I feel that due it being quite quiet they could have put me in a better studio that got the sun more.

We were given a run down room deliberately and asked if we wanted to upgrade to a better room when there were many many better rooms free, in an attempt to screw us for more money. The room had skylights which caused condensation to drip down us when using the kitchen and toilet, there were electrical items in the kitchen which when wet could cause death through electrocution. The \"Hacienda\" food was terrible and mostly inedible. On leaving the room on the first morning I slipped on the wet paths and but for falling against a wll could have suffered serious injury.

I never experienced a hotel where use of the safe costs extra: here it is euro 20/week.
You also should pay close attention to Wifi provided: free wifi only in certain public area, costs in the room is 25 euro extra / 6 days! I stayed a week exactly, booked the wifi for 1 week or 7 days on Saturday when arriving, and they switched it off during Friday noon. They insisted on teaching me maths that 6 days are actually 7 days - what a shame to treat guests like this.
During the stay I caught 4 cockroaches in the kitchen every other morning - they love darkness so leaving on the light in the kitchen shall help. Reading other reviews carefully, I realized this can be a bigger problem in some of their rooms.
Otherwise nicely located to the beach and in walking distance to the center. The pools are lovely. Some staff are very friendly.

Very dated resort from the hotel room to the facilities around the complex. The main bed was very springy so didn’t get a decent nights sleep, the dining chairs and sofa were uncomfortable, old and dirty, the parasol was broken, the fridge/freezer setting dial was broken so we couldn’t freeze the ice creams, the kitchen tap was about to come off etc etc......the list goes on!! This hotel is no way a 4 star standard, more like 2/3 star. The on-site supermarket was pricey so we would would walk to the Hiperdino supermarket about a 5 min walk outside the front having discovered it ourselves. Also the WiFi access was a bit annoying as we paid £24 for a weeks access and was only limited to one login one gadget so we had to keep logging in and out between devices. The only thing we enjoyed was the Mai Tai restaurant, beautiful walk (but windy) along the coast, swimming pool and excursion trips organised by Rosemary who was very friendly and helpful, to see explore more of the beautiful island of Lanzarote.

Great hotel, windy resort

Hotel is really nice. Lots of swimming pools so never too busy and always managed to find a sun lounger. The hotel is a short walk from the center but I would recommend bringing a stroller if travelling with young kids. The only downside is that the resort is always windy so I would try a different resort if this bothers you.

Lovely apartment on beach front, clean and spacious. Mai Tai food was inconsistent, good one day, not good the next - including cold in the middle chicken wings, but great for breakfasts, staff were lovely. However, I feel it’s wrong that guests have to pay for use of sun beds/shades around the pool. Hacienda food was very disappointing and expensive for a buffet (info given to us on arrival said buffet/a la Carte evening meals but buffet only) The Soleil bar was lifeless by 10pm with the definite impression that the staff were closing up even though they supposedly open until midnight. This meant in our 7nights stay we walked further down the road to the many other, better restaurants for 5 nights meals. Would also suggest anybody with mobility issues check where their apartment is due to the layout of the hotel

Good for all-maybe bit far to town-for less mobile

These apartments were a high standard for the price we paid, the standard of the complex as regards to cleanliness were excellent. We stayed in Plaza Verde where there was a lane pool, this worked well for us as we were staying without children and could enjoy a relaxed swim. The staff were extremly professional and we were very impressed at the value for money here. You could always find fault at any hotel so for us the bed could have done with a fitted sheet as the bottom sheet was a little small and you ended up sleeping on the mattress itself where the sheet kept moving during the night. We did not really attend the entertainment as we prefer to visit the town in the evening but we are sure it was perfect for families. The walk along the beach promenade is about 20mins gentle stroll so just right for arriving in the town square for a drink which was amazingly cheap. Beer 1.5 EURO and Wine 2.5 EURO

Top tip hire a car if you want to get around easily and relatively cheaply. The whole island is within reach and definitely worth exploring. In short a a great family holiday location.

Lovely stay

Had heard some bad reviews but me and my family spent 10 days there at the beginning of June and thoroughly enjoyed the holiday. Rooms serviced daily, facilities in room excellent and we had a beach front apartment which had a beautiful view of the lagoon. Not much in the way of entertainment for the children on an evening but you can go into any of the other hotels and it meant there weren't hundreds of children running around our hotel! Will definitely return but would definitely get the beach front apartment again well worth the extra cost.

Beachfront Stay

Hotel is maintained in an immaculately clean condition throughout the complex, however our apartment although adequate was in need of a refurbishing. Other family members stayed in updated apartment which was much better.The sandy beach is superb for small children with shallow water.

Excellent for families with small children

Beachfront villa no 51 is not on the beachfront!! It has a wall for a view so we moved. Also, the beachfront is not a real beachfront. Its a sandy cove in a man made lagoon. The beach is around 15-20 feet from start to the water edge so if you're expecting ocean, expect to be disappointed. That being said, for families with small children, this is an excellent way to have the sandy beach experience in relative comfort and safety. Beachfront thoroughly recommended for families with small children. For adults, stick to the pools!!

Beachfront Room 37 March 2012 - Excellent Time

Family with two young (6,3) boys - I was wary of a 'resort' but we have just had an excellent time. Particularly surprised just how quiet it was after 8pm, not a sound to be heard. Thoroughly recommend paying the little bit extra for a beachside apartment - we had 37 - as not only do you get the beach but absolutely noone overlooking you. One of the 7 pools was been renovated at the time of our stay - Mar 2012 - but 6 pools was plenty! My eldest loved his 'marathon' of 6 pools on the last day - finishing off by swimming through the waterfall at the Mai Tai pool. Two of the pools recently refurbed and spotless, one could do with a bit of paint but hardly a problem. Everywhere was kept spotless throughout. Free canoes, 'zorb' balls, table tennis etc. Fish swim in the manmade beach lagoon. Great crabbing just over the wall. Only had the breakfast once and was impressed - kids ate enough to keep going all day. Ate out in the evenings and recommend the Pasta Costa in nearby Costa Teguise - excellent fish as well as homemade pasta. Dishwasher a godsend. And towels plentyful and changed everyday. Shop had everything youd need including fresh warm bread in the morn. Overall an excellent holiday, has restrored my faith in resorts.

ps - the net on the tabletennis table needs fixing. And no i didnt do it ;oD

Enjoying the Sands Beach Resort

The Sands Beach Resort is very well kept and the staff are all very friendly and attentive and seem to take pride in keeping the resort immaculately clean. My only criticism would be of the bathroom facilities and the beds in the rooms which are of average quality.
There are many pools and a beach area and plenty of sunbeds available and it is a nice walk along the beachfront to the many bars and restaurants in the area. The outdoor facilities of the resort are great.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Always something to do. Had lots of fun. Would recommend this resort. Great to have a supermarket on site with very reasonable prices. Would definately stay here again.
