    it was very large , so a long walk from the room to where you eat and go to restaurants, or reception.

    The location was awesome, the pools were great- the best part is they had an adult pool only, so it was more relaxed and quiet. The views were amazing from our ocean view room and from many spots at the hotel.

    Wonderdul stay with family in this superb resort lacking nothing one can think of. Lovely spa, relaxing indoor and outdoor pool, beautifully decorated rooms and incredibly helpful staff. Lots of locations where one can relax in the evening. Restaurants serve large variety of food and deserts. Breakfast was plentiful and divine. Were greeted by the best restaurant manager ever met, Henri. Will surely visit again in the near future.

    but air-conditioning needed cleaning and funny smell came out after it was on a while and temperature was lowered a bit as it was too cold. I don't know if I can comment on agliolio here but I think food needs to improve for the price customer is paying. There is no need to ask for pepper or parmesan cheese and portions on some plates were ridiculous. Pizza very nice though and would recommend. Just don't order the salmon.

    Customer service excellent especially front desk and complimentary gifts as it was my husband's birthday. The room was very comfortable and well equipped. breakfast was great. Again very friendly staff and very welcoming.

    Despite the fact that there were multiple signs at the outdoor pool forbidding jumping into the pool, children constantly did that. Sometimes they landed quite close to the pool wall. Therefore it was somewhat stressful staying in the outdoor pool where we were afraid that there could be an accident anytime. While we liked the private beach, there was only a single tap and shower head outdoors where we could wash sand off our feet and slippers. The problem was that the wooden floor there was not regularly cleaned of sand (or there was no tool to do it ourselves), so everything was sandy and there was almost no point using that tap because we were almost as sandy afterwards.

    The room was comfy and clean. It had a balcony where we could also dry our swimming suites. The bathroom was quite large with both a bath tub and a shower cabin. There was a great selection of food at the breakfast and a warm welcome with sparkling wine. We had dinner mostly in the Alioglio Restaurant where the staff was helpful and friendly and the kitchen was superb. We also enjoyed the private beach of the hotel quite a lot.

    A superb hotel with a great location. Challenging to park and very busy at this time of year

    The 3 days that we stayed at Golden Sands were incredibly busy. It was almost impossible to find anywhere to park and we ended up walking for about 10 minutes to get the the hotel after parking. The hotel does have a car park however this was completely full for our stay. We also found it very difficult to find any shady sun loungers at the pool or beach as most seem to get reserved with towels early in the day and then abandoned. The business also meant that on our first morning, breakfast was very chaotic and we were not offered tea, coffee, fizz etc. and the restaurant was manic. Overall the experience at Golden Sands was really very good and we did have a nice time. We just suffered with the business of the location and hotel.

    The resort is located right on Golden Bay with great access to the beach and superb sea views from our room. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the room was very comfortable and well appointed. We enjoyed our stay there for the last few days of honeymoon

    Yes as a beach hotel... No as an hotel to visit Malta, so depending on how much beach is important..

    Parking too small. Lack of elevators when too crowded. The first room we had was quite good but due to a technical issue we were forced to move, the second room was much worse. (the hotel was at least quite ok in compensating with a dinner voucher) The bar that manages the beach is a pure disaster.... it takes hours to have someone to ask for the order and receive the drink. In practical terms it is an easy choice if you want to book here or not... if you want a beach site in Malta it's definitly the place to be (no other hotel has a sandy beach) but if you come here for more than the beach then you can find better options.

    The staff is very professional as helpful (in the hotel - not in the bar that manages the beach (a disaster). Rooms are ok - we had two rooms (same type but one much better than the second) Good breakfast On the overall it is a very good hotel but the experience would be better if we would have gone in a different month (too crowded)

    The only thing that I might say is that this is not the first time that I have stayed at the Radisson and the breakfast might have gone down a notch. I would introduce maybe more options or different options.

    The room was simply beautiful. As I have never stayed in a suite before and it was like a dream. The location obviously is splendid because even if it is far away from the rest of malta Golden bay is very beautiful. Apart from the fact that I'm maltese and I was with my italian partner so it was a good break away from the hectic life. We also ordered room service and the food was excellent.

    We loved the location, as we prefer the relaxing holiday, it was perfect as away from busy part of the island. Big swimming pool and the ocean front was ideal. The view from the room was priceless x Needless to mention about all hardworking and friendly staff who took care of us.

    This is the best resort in Malta. You have to bear in mind there's nothing else near, so you will enjoy the hotel itself. The staff is extremely friendly and supportive.
