"Breakfast was excellent, room very clean ,hotel needs a little tlc now but overall really lovely "

"Bedrooms were a great size breakfast was very good and hot, the staff were exceptional. the plus side was the lift down to street level , had a wonderful stay in Torquay."

"The location was good staff was very helpful"

"Absolutely fantastic hotel with great staff. I think it’s my new favourite place to stay! Room was beautiful, spa was a really nice size with indoor and outdoor seating areas. The restaurant is really gorgeous with the most beautiful view of the sea. Food was great and reasonably priced and all the staff were friendly. We will definitely return."

"Adult only hotel .parking was ok .The room was clean but standard for the price . Had robes and slippers, bottle of water and tea making facilities. Bed was very comfortable. Staff were very polite throughout the hotel Higher management in the bar should be more active if mistakes are made and not wait for a complaint to be made. The spa was really lovely, but had just too many people and we had to sit on the floor with drinks , which wasn’t relaxing.Needs a bigger sitting area or even shelves to put drinks on . We tried the spa again early in the morning which was much better and quieter . Pool was a nice temperature Treatments were nice and staff were very friendly. Noisy floorboards above kind of spoils the relaxing music. For what we paid, everything was really expensive ."

"This hotel is appalling. It looks like rundown bldg inside. We checked in on Saturday evening and the reception is full of teenagers who looks shady. The room was below standard. There was no toilet papers, reception is closed because its weekend. Good thing we brought our own toilet papers. The bed are old and sunken. The carpets in the room and in the hallways looked filthy not to mention the smell of it . This hotel needs a full refurbishment. Am sorry, but my 2 nights stay in this hotel is not enjoyable as its giving me anxiety because of the people surrounding the area as well as the safety and security of this establishment is not guaranteed."

"Beautiful location, very clean, great amenities"

"The room was lovely but the mattress was a bit lumpy"

"Just got back from a couple of days spent at South sands . The hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Our bedroom was spacious, clean and comfortable. Had a meal in the restaurant and also in the bar area. Food was delicious. Also breakfast was very tasty each morning, with a very good selection each day. Location was great for what we wanted. There was an option of a ferry from the hotel into Salcombe and return whilst we were staying. There is a 40 minute walk into Salcombe, which is hilly in places, but the ferry is an option if you prefer. Would definitely like to return one day soon."
