Top notch resort! The staff is simply amazing. Super friendly and helpful. The pools are fantastic and they have a great towel program. While that sounds funny, if you have ever been to a resort that doesn’t control their towel inventory…it looks chaotic and dirty. Not here! Super clean, food was high quality, and the rooms are great. Will stay here again.

Great stay, service was very slow but we got the impression that was just Malta. Great suite. Mokka bar food was terrible for a 5star hotel, should scrap the menu and start again. Would absolutely return, just not eat in mokka bar. Pool area would benefit being hosed down on the evening.

Absolutely stunning! 🌅 The Radisson Blu Resort & Spa, Malta Golden Sands is a true gem nestled along one of Malta’s most beautiful beaches. From the breathtaking views of Golden Bay to the warm, attentive service, every moment feels like a luxurious escape. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the food is delicious, and the private beach access is the cherry on top. Whether you’re after relaxation or adventure, this resort delivers it all with elegance and charm. Highly recommended for an unforgettable Mediterranean getaway!

This was our 4th time staying at the Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Golden Sands. This resort never disappoints. The entire staff from check-in, check-out, house keeping, maintenance crew etc. are all so friendly & welcoming team. The resort is always immaculate from inside the main lobby, to individual rooms, to outside the resort. It is a very well kept resort and part of the reason why we continue to return. We always include the breakfast. It is one of the best breakfast buffets and spreads with made to order omelet stand, fresh fruit & veggies, multiple juice options, and baked goods. It what we look forward to each morning we wake up. The staff again are so polite, friendly, and super attentive. Another benefit is Golden Sands has their own small private sandy beach, which can be hard to find in Malta. The resort has 3 pools: small kiddie pool, main pool where all are invited to lounge and our favorite the adults only pool (ages 16 yrs & up). The staff does an exceptional job at ensuring those at the pools & beach have the proper daily resort bracelet allowing guests access to these facilities. Highly recommend this resort for all the above reasons stated and more. Thank you for another wonderful time!

Good location, close to the golden sands beach. Unfortunately it was very windy during our stay and the water was still cold. In terms of getting to Valetta or any other attractions it is a bit remote even by taxi. Food at the restaurants was average.
