This is by far, the best hotel that I have ever stayed in. I wished to propose to my partner in Mauritius and the hotel went above and beyond to make it happen. Yash organised the whole thing for us and made it look like a fairytale without any stress whatsoever. They designed a whole menu to accommodate for my partner’s allergy, they covered the beach in rose petals and organised a singer. From the moment we checked in, to the moment we left, we were so well looked after by all of the staff. We were greeted by staff upon our arrival and shown straight to our room. The check-in process was done in our room while we had the signature on-arrival cocktails. There are a variety of games and activities organised throughout the day as well as entertainment each night. The food options were amazing and there are also free water sport activities. If you are thinking of staying in a hotel in all of Mauritius, please make it this one. The best service, activities, and amenities that I have ever experienced in a hotel.

We stayed at this wonderful resort for a night last week- definitely not long enough. Everything was perfect. Exceptionally good and friendly service from everyone. The resort is at one end of the beach with its own bay. It felt very exclusive. Would love to go back one day.

The staff were extremely accommodating with all requests. The rooms were immaculate, spacious and had plenty of storage space. There were really thoughtful and practical touches in the room. The sea view was amazing. There were extensive water sports available included included in the accommodation fee. The jacuzzi is outdoors but was incredible. There was not as extensive a range of food as at other resorts of this calibre but this did not detract from the fabulous stay in any way.

A cozy resort with a lovely small beach area directly in front of the hotel, with the longer beach area easily accessible too. Hotel staff were all genuine, very friendly and helpful. Rooms all very big with balconies, sofa and seat in room and huge bathroom with walk in wardrobe area. Restaurant was nice with enough food choices but not huge ranges (with corresponding huge waste usually!) like other bigger resorts might have. Drinks and food not included in your plan were close to London prices. The hotel offered excellent activities such as snorkelling/glass bottom boat trip to nearby reef, pedalos and kayaking, access to sauna and steam rooms all at no extra price. Overall a really lovely place to stay!

Don’t waste your time.
Construction right out the window. Terrible service. They say the meal is included and neglect to mention water is charged until it’s time to leave and you’re left with a bill. Food was not edible. Didn’t book any transportation as requested. The beach was dirty and disgusting. There’s plenty of other places that are 10x better and half the price.

We were wowed the moment we arrived at the hotel, the warmth of the hotel team’s welcome, swift and smooth check-in, immediate decor and view of the hotel, and not too mention the help we received unpacking a very messy car… The festive schedule was packed with delights, activities and celebrations. Arriving in Christmas day, we had an extra lovely buffet dinner. Though we had planned to travel during our stay, but decided that we were content with relaxing in the lovely surroundings of the hotel and the range of activities on offer. The hotel staff were the real star, very professional, friendly and helpful throughout our stay and made us feel at home. Our stay at Sands was part of our honeymoon in Mauritius- thank you to the team for making it extra special for us.
