Excellent Hotel, Friendly Staff, Great Food

I could bring my dog is great and a good breakfast will come again.

We had a most enjoyable first stay at South Sands having had to change our plans at short notice due to an injury which meant that my husband was unable to fly. As we arrived to check-in Jonathan the food and beverages manager gave us the warmest of welcomes, he presides over an excellent team. The menu was extensive and varied using the delicious fresh local fish and seafood to its full advantage, the lobster bisque amongst other dishes is to be highly recommended. The beach view room was well appointed, fresh milk to make hot beverages along with local biscuits and complimentary water was a lovely touch. We were a little surprised when we requested a second cappuccino at breakfast to be told that this incurs an extra charge after discussion with the general manager it was explained this is during the summer season. Having never encountered such a policy in many other hotels both in the UK and overseas we felt it was perhaps a short sighted policy from the point of view of guest satisfaction when so much else at the hotel is to be commended including the very friendly staff.

All the staff were so friendly and helpful, the room was great, I didn't fully understand the heating and ventilation but that was down to me. the beach view from the dining room was excellent and the local walks in and around South Sands were great. All the meals we had were 1st class especially breakfast We Walked to Salcombe a couple of times and although its a little hilly the views made up for it. We only had a three day stay but the time passed in the blink of an eye. This was a really great stay for myself and my wife and we will return.

Beautiful room with a sea view . Very helpful and friendly staff . Great choice of fabulous food . Would highly recommend .

Very helpful, friendly staff; excellent cuisine, relaxed, idyllic setting.

Perfect location, comfortable, cosy and homely. All the staff are very helpful and friendly. Service and food in restaurant excellent

Excellent location.

A ground-floor room with a 'balcony' with a partial view of the beach, but quite acceptable. Clean and tidy, but mattress too firm. The hotel was overrun by dogs which were apparently given free reign in the restaurant. We were left wondering if the serving staff washed their hands after petting the animals before serving the next dish. If we had realised just how 'dog friendly' this hotel was, we would not have booked. . Staff very friendly and helpful.

Very nice and quiet location

This was our first stay at this hotel, the location was lovely and extremely close to the sandy beach. Our room was comfortable with a sea view and the food was excellent, including a family celebration lunch there. It also has access to a nearby sea ferry, and connecting tractor, which takes you to nearby Salcombe. The hotel has its own car park which was really helpful.

Lovely friendly and relaxed hotel

Fab location

The staff were so personable and helpful from reception, restaurant staff to the lovely cleaning lady😀 Breakfast was really good, with fresh coffee, unlike other hotels where it’s self service from a machine! Great dinners with freshly caught fish specials. Our room was excellent, clean and spacious. Thank you South Sands Hotel-we will be back !

Unique location…..beautiful view.

We liked the position of the hotel. We thought the evening meal menu could have been better, and the quality was only average.

Just the complete package. Couldn’t fault it.
