Sandos Papagayo

Stayed 20/12 to 27/12 was sort of last minute booking. Well my observations. Room was not scenic it overlooked the mountain terrain however as we never paid for view it was fine. Rooms clean and modern. Shower was over bath and bit rickety however worked. Bathroom needed a bit of overhaul in my opinion. Cleaner came in every day and was cleaned to top class. No complaints. Bit way out of playa Blanca. But we used taxi cheap to marina and main port. Pool areas at time needed a litter picker as seen lots of cups etc. one person litter picking each day would be very good. We sat on lower terraces on loungers there were two sorts to get away from wind. Pool was heated but still very chilly. Best thing about this hotel was the food. We went all inclusive. We travel abroad about 4 times per year and I have to say this was the best food we had ever had literally everything u could think of. Pool bar offered so many options instead of just a burger and chips. We did not witness entertainment as normally in bed by 9 as older travellers lol. No struggle to get a lounger any day. We have never ever returned to a hotel before however I could honestly say we would return to this one. Yea some slight niggles however a holiday for us is about hood food and can honestly say I was over impressed with the food at this hotel.

Well I have found a hotel that I couldn’t fault , The food was good the rooms were good , a little dated but we were only in there to sleep and change and back out again , there was enough sunbeds and pools for everyone and close to some nice restaurants and lovely little shops . There are beautiful views and the staff are always helpful ,Marti always has a smile and a kind word . One thing I would say is pay the extra for elite it’s nice to have the choice , so thank you to all at this lovely hotel my wife had a lovely 40 th birthday here

This is our 4th time here but this time we brought along some friends. We had told them all about it how good it was,then i read the reviews and became a little concerned. However i had no need to worry food great staff great hotel relaxing and fun As for cleaning of sunbeds and cracked tiles See photos! Great time and our friends definately will be back

I have recently returned home from my holiday at Sandos Papagayo so I thought I would leave an honest review. I arrived mid afternoon on a Wednesday at the start of October. The first thing I noticed on the way to the hotel was how big and impressive the reception looks from outside including the domed roof. When walking into the spacious, clean reception area I saw Rami, Odians and Carlos in reception so rather than joining the queue of a couple of people I went to say hello to them and let them know that I was there. The check in was nice and simple, had over my passport and the hotel voucher from the travel company. A few moments later after the receptionist had confirmed that the room was ready which was a bonus as it was almost 1500 so it was not guaranteed that my room would be available then. My suitcases where loaded onto one of the trolleys and off I went to my room. As I was told that it was Oktoberfest that afternoon the suitcases were left in the room and I went to get involved in the activities for Oktoberfest. As someone who does not drink that much there was not much pressure placed on me to get involved in the drinking games so I just watched these activities. As I had a room in the B block I was reminded how beautiful the views where, on most mornings I was enjoying a coffee from the coffee machine watching the people have an early morning splash in the sea / walk on the beach and watch ferries go between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. For those people who do not like coffee there is the option of having decafe or tea to enjoy at the start of the day On most of the days I was actively involved in the activities provided by the animation team and I was amazed at how hard they worked and how they went above and beyond in making everyone feel welcomed. Even though I did not know any of the other holiday makers at the start of the holiday I felt that it was easy to make friends with them as most of the people I saw was friendly. I liked that when doing the archery or shooting there was two people doing it at the same time as it meant that the activity could be done within an hour. During the day some of my Spanish friends arrived and I had great fun in their company I was pleasantly pleased at the choice of food that was available, both at lunch time and also in the evenings, it is possible to eat beige food if I wanted and also there was an amazing choice of salads if I wanted to be healthy. Every lunch time and evening time there is the option of having roast meat, such as beef, turkey, pork, chicken. I had booked the Fusion restaurant twice, once for the Mexican and once for the Asian and this provided a nice change to the normal restaurant. As there is only a few people that can enter every 15 minutes there was never any queues when getting the food there. As I was too busy waking up slowly, I was not willing to get out of the room too early and I did not have any issue getting a sun bed around pool 2 and also noticed that

Second visit to this lovely hotel. Booked again for March 2025. Rooms are dated but very big and a few English channels on TV. Beds are super comfy with gorgeous quilts. The views are magnificent. Food is hot, varied and plentiful. Lovely clean restaurant and super service. Throughout the hotel the staff are friendly and helpful. Reception will order you a taxi if you need one. 5 euros to Playa Blanca Town. 10 mins drive away. A. Few small shops and bar to watch football 10 minutes walk. The pools are clean. Entertainment fabulous. A very chilled atmosphere.
