Excellent location - could see the sea and seafront from the front of the hotel. The room was suitable for our needs and appropriate for the cost.

Just got back from here, the hotel is situated near to restaurants, bars, railway, attractions, our room was small, but had everything we needed, it was clean, lovely sea views, the reason I’ve only scored it a 3 * is because of the bed bugs ! I know it’s not the fault of the hotel, and these little blighters are carried in on other visitors luggage, but you don’t realise you’ve been bitten until much later, as they use anaesthetic, I’m covered in bites 😟 we suspected the bugs might be there, when I saw one on the covers, but I wasn’t sure, we also kept finding little spots of blood on the sheets, but because we didn’t see any bites (came out later, after we’d left) we ignored it. We enjoyed our holiday, we can’t comment on the breakfast, because we were told when we arrived, that there wasn’t room for us, it didn’t matter as you can get breakfast anywhere. We didn’t use the bar area as we don’t drink, so we only saw the landlady when we arrived. The bugs need an exterminator! Don’t think we’ll be returning here 😕

This was only our 2nd visit to the Sands but definitely not our last. We were greeted by our hosts like friends. The hotel is clean with comfy beds and 2 hosts that go that extra mile to make you feel at home. The hotel has a small.comfy bar with seats inside and out and a good selection on offer. It is in a fabulous position on Paignton seafront just a few steps from the beach. It's just a few minutes walk to the town with its many bars and restaurants. All in all a top class stay, well done Chaz and Maz.

We have had a lovely weekend the place and owners are very welcoming the rooms and communal areas are very clean and tidy. The owners have gone above and beyond to cater for any requests at breakfast or for the rooms and are lovely and friendly and we enjoyed some time in the bar area chatting with them we will definitely be returning
