The Golden Sands is getting very tired. I have stayed there before many years ago and there had been little done to the property. The grounds are lovely but the beach has suffered greatly with much of the foreshore being washed away compared to25-20 years ago. Given the cost I was hoping for more. ##### Michael John Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aimran Apr 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Service top notch as always and great breakfast options! ##### Aimran Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Jan 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay for a family We loved our stay at the Golden Sands.
