Sandos Benidorm Suites

Lovely stay in Sandos this October. Food, entertainment, and location are all great. Plenty of things to do in the hotel day and night the entertainment staff are excellent, the evening shows were great, for young and old. The all inclusive option is definitely worth it. Pool bar and snack bar are well managed great staff in both. Only thing that was a bit annoying is the rooms are paper thin, u can hear everything that your neighbours are doing....including snoring, so if u are a light sleeper like many of us, you should definitely consider this when booking. Of course the unlimited Pina Coladas do help , but maybe get some ear plugs as well!! Thanks to Anihou and Julia who were always around with games and activities for kids and adults!

Fair hotel, wouldnt say 4*, more of a 3. Friendly staff, clean basic room, huge balcony, nice pool area, easy to get a sun lounger at any time of the day. Food selection basic but ok. Drinks fine and nice cocktails. Easy check in/out procedure, quiet room on 21st floor, amazing view. 10 minute walk to beach, shops, night life. Overall a comfortable stay.

Really clean hotel about 15/20 mins walk into town. We stayed as a family and had 2 Pool View rooms on the 19th floor. We were on a All Inclusive basis, we didn't stay for long periods at hotel as we like to keep active. Our highlight was eating at the Indian Restaurant on site. It was lovely to have Wine from a Wine Bottle and a Beer in a Pint Glass. If you stay longer than 5 days you can book for this. I recommend you book ASAP as it's not open every day and availability is not always available. The waiters were funny and attentive, we had a Serviette transformed into a statue which was fun. Big shout out to the restaurant manager Denis, he was very good at his job and on his days off you noticed his absence because the line of people to get into restaurant was so long. Only tried the food from pool side bar once, very disorganised, not clear how to order and lots of people stood waiting to get chefs attention. The chef was a bit grumpy and shouted at myself and husband, because our Burger would take 10 mins longer than our Toasties. My son was surprised at how he shouted. I think the chef realised afterwards and explained why he shouted whilst slapping me on the arm as if it had been a misunderstanding. The same chef appeared to have favourite customers and was quite happy slapping the naked backs of sweaty hot customers and then preparing food. It was a bit grim. We were made to feel a nuisance. Overall we really enjoyed our holiday the entertainment some nights was fantastic such as a Musician / Comedy Act and on our last night Music. Other nights it wasn't as good. Pool was clean and you can borrow towels for a 10 Euro Deposit each towel. The hotel says that they don't let you reserve sunbeds longer than 30 minutes. However this is not true, In a morning if you looked out at the poolside Loungers were full of laden towels and no people. It appears that folk line up with piles and piles of towels and disappear for breakfast or go out. The best time to guarantee a lounger is later on in the day nearer to 7pm when Pool closes.
