The staff at the buffet and bars were very nice. The food at the buffet was good. Rooms are in need of repairs. Outdoor property is very well kept however the rooms are the complete opposite. We booked 3 rooms. Could not get a restaurant reservation during our 6 day stay. We had water leaks under the sink and the toilet. The check in staff not friendly. We won’t be going back.

They did not inform us that there was only 3 restaurants open. And everything was closed. We tried to get a reservation for a reservation and they told us no that they were fully book. Which we knew was a lie because the resort was a dead zone because there was literally no one there. We went by the restaurant around dinner time and it was empty and they still wouldn’t seat us. Only wanted to seat us if we bought a bottle of alcohol with USD!! The staff is rude sooooo rude!! There was no music playing around the resort. There was no entertainment. There was no one to get us drinks around the pool area or on the beach we had to walk all the way to the bar by the pool if we wanted a drink. The room was very smelly. They tried to steal our pajamas and then say that it was folded on the top shelf of the closet…… we are 5’1 we would NEVER put it up there especially when we left it on the bed! I was supposed to have a plunge tub I didn’t get what I paid for!! The rooms were smelly I complained about it 3 times!! No change!! I woke up day 2 and had no water and they never fixed it I had to shower and brush my teeth in my friends room - and they never even offered to change my room. I need a partial refund. This was supposed to be a all inclusive “high end” vacation and I had to do everything myself.

Service was mediocre, I upgraded my room it was an additional $700 I was given a room with less space when I requested blankets it took more than 24hrs they also told me it was going to have ocean view and it did not have ocean view . I was instructed to notice the hospitality staff when I was checking out to have someone help with my luggage I did everything I was asked and they failed to help with luggage I had to use other transportation.

I loved the Sandos resort. It was a beautiful property with a scenic walk leading to the beach. The rooms are clean and spacious. The food at the buffet was okay. I didn't try any of the restaurants since there were no reservations. I would stay again and would recommend this hotel.

This is a home away from home, we return year after year and love everyone there. This time we were fortunate to have Zyanya as the PR rep, as part of our Expedia package, and she was absolutely amazing. So gracious, friendly, and kind, and unbelievably helpful whenever we needed anything or had any questions. She is the best and we hope to see her again next summer. Thank you for everything, Zyanya!

It was clean but the workers were not very helpful. We were lied to on more than one occasion. We asked Raul from transportation if he could take me to the Loby instead of leaving me at the shuttle station where the excursion picks up and he said NO that he had something else to take care of. I walked to the Loby and Raul was there hanging out with the luggage guys and 10 minutes later he had his backpack on ready to go home.. On the first day we arrived nothing was explained to us. It was terrible service from the Loby check in man.
