Sandy Beach Hotel

This hotel, advertised as 4.5 stars, barely deserves 3. The room photos are completely misleading – the rooms are connected by doors that are technically locked but paper-thin, so you hear absolutely everything from the neighboring room. The same goes for the door to the hallway, so you can even hear toilets flushing three rooms away. Appalling – and this was with an extra charge for a “superior” room. The hotel’s infrastructure is completely inadequate. There are maybe one-third as many sunbeds as there are guests, which turns both the beach and pool into a daily battle. The dining hall is no better – huge lines at all hours and finding a free table is a struggle. Except for two bars (one on each side of the complex), all others close at 6:00 p.m. together with the pools, which creates massive queues at the few that remain open. “All inclusive” here means you receive one token at check-in, which gets you a drink in a 200 ml plastic cup. You only get another drink if you return the same cup… The stay also includes two vouchers for à la carte restaurants, but when we tried to make a reservation on the second day of our arrival, the earliest date available was six days later – when we were already gone. Late check-out was not available, so with a 10:30 p.m. flight like ours, you are essentially left homeless for the day. When we tried at least to book a shower after check-out, we showed up at the agreed time only to find they had forgotten about us and had nothing available. At check-in they promised bottled water would be provided, since tap water isn’t drinkable. Not once during our stay did this happen – you’ll have to buy your own. Do not expect any animation programs in Czech, even though they were advertised. What you can expect is loud French-language entertainment on a megaphone until 11:00 p.m. right outside your window. Never again. Peter Valenta & family

Perfect beachside break! We’ve been here many times – not as hotel guests, but just to enjoy a fresh juice at the Vitamin Bar on the lovely terrace. Whether it’s pure pomegranate juice or a tasty mix – for only €2.50 you get amazing quality! 🧃✨ The staff is super friendly 😊, the toilets are clean 🚻, and the terrace is right on the promenade 🌊☀️. Perfect spot to take a break during a beach walk 🚶‍♂️⛱️. Highly recommended!

The stay at the hotel was great. The room was decent, the terrace very small, but I saw that other rooms and parts of the hotel had larger terraces. The food was varied and good, especially the desserts. The staff was hardworking. However, the staff spoke very little English. 90% of the guests were German, so they spoke better German. Location of hotel is top.

We were there for the second time and again very satisfied. Very friendly staff, great food, warm and calm sea, well-maintained beach with enough umbrellas and sun loungers. I highly recommend it.

The hotel/resort are located directly on private beach in a large hotel/resort area, however not in walking disstance from shops and restaurants, except for a few ones close to the hotel. Hotel offer a large number of free services/entertainment for both adults and kids. Rooms differ a lot, from large rooms with large balcony to small rooms with small balcony and many are bad located . We mananged to get one of the big rooms with a large corner bancony, so if possible don't go for a standard room, but a level or two up. The service level was very high all over hotel included room maids service. Food ok, bars ok

We stayed 5 days at the Sandy Beach hotel. We change from an other hotel, which was disappointing. At Sandy Beach the rooms were clean, the staff was very friendly and the food was excellent! There was lot of choice at the buffet and the local wine was also very good! ||The hotel has own beach, which is very nice. It was quite full each day, but we always found free space. ||The location is excellent and you can easily walk to the centre of Side (about 20 minutes) and all way goes next to the sea. Or you can take a dolmus buss just from the main road (short hill up from the hotel). ||The rooms were clean. We stayed next to the main house where the reception is. There was some loud music in the evening, but everything finished latest at 00:00. You can hear sounds inside of the rooms, so if you need silence for sleeping, ear plugs can be needed (but nothing to disturbing, just people passing by and talking). ||There is no wifi in the rooms, but in the reception and lobby area is free wifi.||And once again, the staff was very friendly, always smiling, polite and made you feel very welcome! I'd stay again in this hotel, we had a great holiday!

Nice holiday: Turkey, Side, hotel Sandy Beach||||We visited this hotel at the beginning of September for a week. Through the fact, that it is an older hotel (comparing with that newly built), we were surprised by high level of care of clients.||Especially staff, room cleaning and meals services (all inclusive) were excellent. Private beach and swimming pool offered enough deck-chairs and clear water. Majority of guests were Germans. Only evening animation programs were a bit poor. There is also good possibility for visiting interesting rests of the ancient Side or other excursions. ||We can recommend this hotel.

We just came home yesterday, but the only thing I can say about this holiday is that, it was amazing. We stayed 1 week with friends and family. (13 people) |Food was always tasty, lot of choices. There is definitely something what you like.|Staff is friendly, helpful..Always trying to say some words on your language. :)|Room was cleaned every day, towels were changed every day..even if we didn't ask it..so thank you for that! |Beach by the hotel is clean and beautiful. By the way..you have to wake up in the morning around 7 a.m. if you want to book deckchairs for yourself and your family or friends. There is a pool in front of the hotel...but I didn't even try that one, I was always on beach. :D |Wifi is free in the lobby area. If you want to use it everywhere in the hotel area, you have to pay for it. It's 7 euro for a week. |Weather was 30-35 degrees every day. |One day we went to see the Green Canyon, it was a great boat trip, and another day to drive Buggy cars..we're pretty dirty at the end. :D |In the evenings you can sit down to the Bar area drink cocktails, listen music and watch the show. Or you can go and walk by the sea, there're lot of places where you can buy souvenirs, little presents etc.|If you asking me, 1 week is not enough, you should stay at least 10 days to go to places and also relax a bit. I definitely recommend this hotel and I would go back anytime. :) thank you!
