  • Better Hotels around for the same price.

    ,

    Just come back from Xmas and new year, 5th visit and personally I won’t be returning as needs a good refurbishment. Better hotels for the same price.

    We were there in October. I agree outdoor area needs a little TLC. Closer to old town than new. Personally, we wouldn’t return and there are so many more better hotels.

    Colin Martin
    Brilliant hotel highly recommended close to everything

    DavidandVictoria Mitchell
    Was there last year, good location but a bit run down, Ambassador is nicer and a similar price.

    Brilliant hotel easy access to old and new town
  • Good all inclusive plus

    ,

    We booked an all inclusive holiday with select lounge access.

    DINING EXPERIENCE
    Good quantity and quality foods, always fish and meat options, sides, fresh salad, desserts, cold meats & cheeses.
    Staff very attentive in the dining room, with plates being cleared within seconds. Impeccable service.

    ROOMS
    Rooms are in need of an update, feature red wall and dark furniture. That’s the only negative.
    Every room is the same if booking through a travel agent. On their own website, suites are also available. Good sized general double rooms with adequate balcony overlooking the pool (we requested sea view - ‘peacock island’ is visible) with table and 2 chairs. Little pull out line to dry your swimwear which was a nice touch.

    Beds comfy, room contained 2 x full sized double beds for 2 of us.
    Beds made up every day and bins emptied.

    Around 8 English channels on the TV - scroll to channel 60 and beyond to find them.
    Kettle provided with a selection of flavoured teas, coffee, sugar and milk and an expresso coffee machine with pods. If you run out, we were told to ask at the bar for them, which they pass your selection to you, no question.

    Bathroom contains a bath with an overhead shower, adequate, but a walk in shower and no bath would be more suited here. Toiletries provided - hand wash, hand cream, shower gel etc. Toilet, bidet and double sinks in bathroom - bathroom is a good large size. Hairdryer also in bathroom. Towels changed every day.

    We had bathrobes, slippers and a ‘turning down’ service which was a staff member popping by each evening to give us chocolates - chocolates were lovely.


    SELECT LOUNGE
    Perfect! Entry via your key card into a frosted glass partition only for select lounge access residents, lovely air con inside with comfortable seating and a private outside area with umbrellas.
    Premium spirits - every type under the sun! A beer pump, cordials, a continuous fully stocked fridge with bottled beer, including 0% alcohol beer, premium bottled soft drinks (cola zero, sprite etc), bottled fruit juices - apple, grape, orange, pineapple and tomato juice (perfect for making yr own bloody mary’s!). Also wine in a pre set temperature cooler - red, white & rose. Bottles of Prosecco in ice buckets and an ice bucket for use in drinks. Staff continually popping in to refresh any depleted stock.
    A selection of canapés always available as well as a tub of jelly sweets, crisps, nuts, fruit slices (to eat & pop into your drinks). Cannot fault this area and well worth the extra booking charge.

    SPA & POOL AREA
    Our stay included a 2hr circuit in the spa which we took advantage of.
    The spa consists of an underground pool on the lower floor with various jets. A cold plunge pool, sauna and steam room. Nice touch. Flip flops and swimming caps must be worn - these apes provided by the hotel at a cost of €1.50 each if needed. Booking is essential, you can’t just turn up. Always staff at the spa area to accommodate you and are very friendly and helpful.

    The pool is a good size, however, it only goes to your chest (I’m 5ft 6), but perfect for cooling off. There’s a circular whirlpool, however, the whirlpool doesn’t come on very often and as such, we never experienced it when it was working. It’s intermittent and not powered by its occupants. Saying that, it was a nice area to sit and chill in and seats around 8-10 people at any one time.
    The sun beds around the pool are great, comfy and plenty of them, with lots of umbrella’s for shade. The pool area is shaded to some degree in various area throughout the day as the sun moves around, but gets the sun until it sets - sun was still shining on this area gone 7.30 at night!

    There is a separate area with tables and chairs if you wish to eat from the poolside snack bar, with chips, hot dogs, burgers etc - these cannot be taken over to your sun-bed. The snack bar is open from 11-6 daily.
    Drinks can be taken over to your sun-bed and staff are round frequently (every few minutes) to remove empty containers. The whole exterior area is kept very clean by staff.

    This is the first hotel where I have had a pleasant experience with the all inclusive option, it’s never been my preference (the husband wished to try it), but if we return here, the all inclusive plus is a must - I would definitely return. You won’t be disappointed!

    We were here last week. Lovely hotel, brilliant location, very clean. Cocktails are part of the AI, There are people who queue to get the sunbeds that are in sun all day, but you can always get a sun bed round the pool, which are not in the sun all day but there are for quite a while. You won't be disappointed.

    Harry Hobson
    It’s okay I have stayed once, expensive, overrated. Has lots of returning older guests. Location is good.

    Jill Forbes
    This is a great hotel, rooms fab, food excellent- I am a very fussy eater and I found the selection of food great

    Jennifer Fleming
    We have stayed a few times, not all rooms have a pool view. Those facing east have the morning sun. We have always had a west facing room.

    Bev Jackson
    Wasn’t for us. Food wasn’t the best to be honest and staff on reception not always very pleasant
    However location is good close to old town and new town

    Peter Kelly
    I have stayed twice recently no issue with sun beds.
    Cocktails are in with the all inclusive and are very good, cheese and wine tasting some days as is chocolate tasting, entertainment is ok but load’s near the hotel have a Great time.

    June Knight
    Lovely hotel , food good and A.I is brilliant.

    Christopher Jones
    Food lets this hotel down, at least it did in September last year when I was there. Location, rooms, staff very good though.

    Diane Hall
    Lovely hotel and staff. Rooms are great too.

    Stayed at Sandos 5 times and going back in October. No complaints staff, food and accommodation lovely. Great value for money

    Bev Jackson
    We have recently come back but wasn’t for us. We were half board but the food was just lukewarm.
    The staff when we were there weren’t that friendly, but the location is perfect, close to most things. We still enjoyed our time in Benidorm.

    Great all around hotel, great large beds, food and drink are great, most branded spirits served on the ordinary AL, I did pay about £150 for extra AI but that gives you access to a small room with a help yourself bar.

    Dawn Mansell
    Loved it only small downside but not a deal breaker and wouldn’t stop me staying again; pool in shade till closer to 12.30 pm

    Helen Brown
    Lovely hotel we stayed there in Jan this year nice food and great location.

    Sue Fanshawe
    Fab hotel no complaints at all.

    Jackie Embling
    Here now. No complaints from us at all. Lovely hotel
  • Amazing hotel

    ,

    Afternoon everyone from a windy Benidorm
    We are staying at the sandos Monaco hotel and I really am blown away by this hotel,it is so near to everywhere five minutes walk to the beach just an amazing location.
    I was a bit dubious about reviews I read about the food some saying it was lovely or just ok and some saying it was terrible but I have to say I have been here since the 17th until the 1st December and so far we have not had one bad meal the choice is amazing plenty of everything all 3 courses are exceptional
    Also the entertainment has been really good not had to go out yet lol on an evening as it’s all here for you but this week we will start hitting the bars for all the cabaret etc,booked to go to the Benidorm palace on Tuesday night.
    So if anyone is waiting to come out here and staying at this hotel you won’t be disappointed the place is spotless and the staff are all just great.
    Happy holidays peeps

    Charlotte Barrett
    Won’t go in any other hotel now, out there in July 2022 and February 2023

    James Hughes
    For all inclusive I would recommend the Sandos Monaco, smashing hotel in every way and great central location.

    Just come back …. It’s gorgeous there, lovely spa too, if you book a select room it includes a fab lounge area where you pour your own branded drinks including Jack Daniels, Baileys etc etc also you can sneak a few beers/soft drinks to your room to put in the fridge they don’t mind as long as it’s not cratefuls ! … there’s a fridge full of beers / fruit juices, wine and prosecco all help yourself all day also cold snacks in there and a huge bowl of Haribos

    Book select and it includes one free visit to the spa and a free visit to an Indian Restaurant at the sister hotel (Sandos Benidorm Suites …. It’s not the best most authentic Indian meal but worth a visit). If you are thinking of using the curry voucher, book as soon as you can as there is limited availability so to get the day / time you want book it early .

    You can upgrade at arrival if you want … so have a look in the lounge to see if you think it’s for you . It’s gorgeous
