Reviews for Sentido Sandy Beach Hotel & Spa

Review 1:Even though it was end of season, I didn't expect the hotel to offer a VERY restricted menu. The choice of food was poor (everything with chips and no buffet). Location was outside of Larnaca - need bikes or a car to access.

Review 2:Wanted a winter sun holiday as my birthday is in November. Hotel was VERY quiet so no rush for sunbeds of other facilities. However, this also meant beach bar was closed, many sunbeds had been packed away, and absolutely no holiday atmosphere in the hotel (rarely more than 4 or 6 in the restaurant at night). Felt like a ghost town!

Review 3:Could have had more facilities for children (play area) and better priced food/drink so the B&B guests could have enjoyed the hotel bars/restaurants a little more. Also, a hotel lobby TV room/facility would also have been quite handy.

Review 4:Friendly staff, and even friendlier resident cats which we loved. Great room with massive bed and excellent views of the sea and hotel pool.

Review 5:There was no heating in pools,was freezing cold but only the indoor pool was warm,only free WiFi at the lobby and common areas.

Review 6:the staff were great,helpful,spacious rooms with comfy beds,nice pools ,great view to the pool& Larnaca bay& gym,near to the bus station,lots of restaurants around & pubs.

Review 7:NONE

Review 8:Good service from all staff .. But allow me to commend both the lovely 'Georgi' at the reception area bar and Andreas who supervised breakfasts... they are conscientious workers, forever 'on the go' - yet always find time to supply information which proved to be invaluable during our stay.. I would have no hesitation in employing them. They are a big plus for the hotel. The facilities were enough for us. - may not be for others but our intentions were to have a quiet relaxing break which is exactly what we experienced....the breakfasts had plenty of choice...hot food was always hot.....room was spacious and very clean. Lovely setting, lots of green .. view to the open sea... Location is good.... drove 500+ kms during the week, east, west & north without difficulty. We will deffo return ! Theresa & Mike.

Review 9:Everything costs extra, including the jacuzzi and sauna. There was no kettle in the room (and no water coolers in sight), and no power sockets (in order to charge our phones we had to unplug the TV and the minifridge). There is no wi-fi except in the lobby

Review 10:Clean hotel, friendly service, and a decent breakfast

Review 11:We were warmly welcomed with drinks and smiles, and got our room imideatly. We've booked this hotel via booking.com. I called the reception a couple of times before our arival. Asked the managers for an airport escort, and they were very polite to organize us one. We had a couple of surprises during our stay, like Champagne and fruits in our room, a free dinner etc. These were very pleasant suprises considering we've booked our room via a website and weren't expecting that.

Review 12:Our stay at the hotel was wonderful and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Larnaca district. The service is outstanding, the food is excellent, the staff are truly amazing and I will definitely be returning!

Review 13:Poor beach, much nicer beaches a bit to the left. Far away to anything, 20 km to Larnaca.

Review 14:Nice pool area with huge beds. Parking on site. Close to Larnaca airport.

Review 15:We tried for 3 days to get spa and massage apppointments, the hotel were unable to get us an appointment reduced our enjoyment from 9.5 to an 8 out of 10!!

Review 16:Beautifully run and maintained hotel, staff were excellent.

Review 17:The staff at reception are not very professional they lack courtesy and hospitality and some hotelerie rules

Review 18:The atmosphere the sea it is calm and peaceful the staff at the restaurant and the room service and the bar personnel at the beach are perfect

Review 19:Wooden floors, far too noisy with other guests walking at all times day & night, also would rather have a bath than a shower, when asked for a room with a bath, was told it would be at an extra cost, we had booked a superior/deluxe room??

Review 20:Room size, very clean & comfortable.

Review 21:Breakfast - A lot of eggs pre-cooked, so yokes going hard. Staff always ready to cook a fresh eggs, but can't help but feel a lot were wasted.

Review 22:Staff - ALL very helpful and friendly. Couldn't do enough for you. Bar staff knowledge good with Coffee Latte's to die for - just right before retiring for the night. Cleanliness - Our room was spotless. Staff always about cleaning corridors, bar areas etc. Loved the walk in shower and modern bathroom in the Exec room. Breakfast - good choice of cold and hot food. Property has four lifts and were ALL working for the 9 nights we were there. Pool - Life guard on duty during pool opening hours and really comfortable beds around the pool WiFi - Free in all areas. Concierge - Christina very helpful and attentive.

Review 23:I did not like the fact that there was no bell boy to help us with our luggage.

Review 24:The hotel staff was very friendly and they received us with a fresh lemonade at the check in

Review 25:The stinky smell on our floor is disappointing and the poor WiFi connection is useless. The sunbeds are in bad condition on the beach, maybe it worth to exchange them now.

Review 26:Beach is nice and the staff is very helpful.

Review 27:Not a major issue but we would have liked to have had late night food options. All food places (including grocery stores accross the street) close early so we hoped the hotel at least would have the kitchen/room service and/or snack bar open. The room had only 2 electricity outputs, one of which was for the TV, so to charge two cellphones we had to "not watch TV" There was complimentary water upon check-in to our room but it was not replenished the other 4 days. Breakfast was good, but would have liked some change to the menu during our 5 day stay.

Review 28:the front-desk staff were amazing. Very helpful, told us where to go and most importantly 'how to' get there. Loved the beach and the pool

Review 29:A comfortable clean hotel where u can enjoy the pool and the sea, clean rooms, nice breakfast, helpful staff, away from city center but the bus stop is just outside the hotel so no problems with that. Everything we needed

Review 30:Hotel is old and has been renovated recently but not to the 4 star standards. Lobby and common areas are decent, but the rooms are cramped (even the largest ones) and modestly furnished. The bathroom is even worse. There is no direct sea view. bar and restaurant staff are slow, speak bad english (almost unimaginable for Cyprus!)

Review 31:Poll and bar are are nice. Receptionist were very helpful and connected me to an excellent cab driver (George) who took me to and from Nicosia where i had a business meeting, and also drove me to the airport on the same day at 2am in the morning. If you need a limo in Cyprus George is the man to call for sure.

Review 32:Room facilities were terrible. Entire room had a single power socket, which was for the TV so each time u needed to charge a phone, etc you had to unplug the TV. Asked for for a water kettle to boil water for kids' milk and/or coffee cups and were told neither eas available.

Review 33:Location and outdoor facilities are nice

Review 34:New renovations mean the public areas are nice, but the rooms are still dated and dirty (bathrooms in particular). There's no wi-fi in the rooms, and the wi-fi in the public areas is poor. Restaurant is overpriced. Odd policy with towels mean you can only have a new beach towel every 2 days (or pay to replace it).

Review 35:Location is nice (but far removed from Larnaca) and the public areas are tidy and well presented.

Review 36:Location of room next to elevator and dreadfull noise from night club near hotel, restaurant staff throwing empty bottles into recycling bin several times after 2am and shouting,laundry delivery truck unloading noisily 7am, club sandwich purchased lunch time was terrible,cats in reception at 6am and no ac in reception so very hot, breakfast was not very gòod, all in all expensive stay with very little sleep.

Review 37:Stella mappouri on reception was very pleasant,otherwise was not impressed with hotel

Review 38:WIFI is terrible. The connection is absolutely terrible! It's a bit far from the center and not worth the four star rating.

Review 39:We liked the pool and the value for money. Staff is friendly and room is clean.

Review 40:wifi has interruprions in its work and free only on the ground floor. The beach somethimes has garbage. Brakefast contain constant variety of dishes, nothing new for 10 days.

Review 41:good beach, healthy food, modern enaugh rooms, big and deep swimming pool(!), the staff was perfectly polite and kind (very important point imho). They have change room and this is amazing. Reception is always help to resolve any situation. A lot of good sunbeds and umbrellas. Beach has a good location. You can find the gym here :)

Review 42:The hotel is far from 4*, there is no free wifi in all areas, water in the room is not complemetary, bathroom is horrible (like a 2* property)...and it''s way to expensive for the quality offered.

Review 43:Beach was ok.

Review 44:The room wasn't really a 4+ star hotel room! The TV, an old model called "Telefunken" that you couldn't even switch through the channels. Anyway, we didn't need a TV. But I was surprised seeing it. Breakfast was ok, but I could have booked for accommodation only and get a better breakfast outside! Paying for WI-FI in the room??? No! We expected more for the price of 120 euro per night.

Review 45:Clean room, Hotel very close to the beach, and the beautiful palm trees + swimming pool. Nice friendly staff!

Review 46:The beds are very very soft. I like them, but if you had a back problem it might cause you an issue. When I arrived the front desk did not take me to the room, which meant I had to guess a bit where it was. But the staff I met on the way were very friendly and showed me the right direction.

Review 47:The pools and beach are nice, and there's a couple of places to eat. It's out of town but there are a couple of little supermarkets and a few restaurants outside. Larnaca town only 10 mins or so. The facilities in the hotel are lovely - and the spa is excellent.

Review 48:Located in a relatively quiet area, not far away from Larnaca downtown (~15 minutes by bus), reasonable restaurants very close to the hotel, so BB is not a problem. Private beach, everything kept clean and in very good conditions. Renting a car for a minimum of 2 days to see more places on the island is a must.

Review 49:Slightly out of the main town of larnaca

Review 50:Hotel is really nice. There are two pools, bar and great atmosphere. Staff very friendly and great help for daily advise and activities.

Review 51:It is located just off a busy road, with some rooms overlooking and overhearing the highway traffic.

Review 52:Warm welcome from staff, large and spacious, great breakfast

Review 53:Location is kinda in the middle of nowhere. No free wifi in the room.

Review 54:Pool and beach area is nice but not easy to get sunbed because other customers illegally reserve them from previous day. Breakfast was fresh and tasty. Lobby area looks very nice.

Review 55:The breakfast was not very exciting. Same everyday and the fresh made omelettes were not very nice. Needs to be more westernised continental flavour.

Review 56:The outdoor areas and pool. A choice of 2 huge pools and children's pool. Every night there was something happening in the outdoor area.

Review 57:The dreadful loud noise emanating from the evening entertainment whether you wanted to listen to it or not. This was particularly bad when mixed with that from neighbouring hotels. I felt that more could be done with the three main bar areas which were more or less deserted through the entire periods they were open. (Drop their prices) Internet access via the wifi was weak and intermittent.

Review 58:The friendliness, politeness and helpfulness of the staff. The hotel breakfasts were excellent and everything was spotless. The pools were clean and well kept. Access to Larnaca main town was easy by local bus outside hotel.

Review 59:The room was very basic...totally not deserving 144EUR per night. Purschased a Superior Room, but I am guessing it was the same with the rest. No coffee-making facilities in room, bad TV signal, it was a side-sea view and not a sea view as purchased, very basic spa services (to be called a spa hotel) and very noisy corridors (no sound isolation). In the end I felt sorry for myself for paying so much for so little.

Review 60:The outside area (pool, garden) were pretty

Review 61:We really struggled to get a sunbed and an umbrella. People were reserving sunbeds and umbrellas as early as 6 in the morning and then not appearing and using them until much later in the day..completely unfair when us and others had to sit up the top by reception just to sit in the shade.if sunbeds are not being used they shouldn't be allowed to be reserved!!

Review 62:Beautifully clean, lovely staff. Very relaxing.

Review 63:The staff are not very friendly and make you feel like they are doing you a favour helping you even if it is part of your booking. The spa had one person working there so no appointments available. It didn't open until 10. Looking around alone as there was nobody on reception was disheartening, the jacuzzi had no water in so it looked like we were not missing much. As we had booked for a nice spa weekend this was a disappointment.

Review 64:Nicely decorated with a good beach. The process of booking was very good as reservations were very friendly, accommodating and helpful.

Review 65:I have been returning to the Sandy Beach for over 20 years and I am finding that the hotel targets the 'all inclusive' package more and more - which in my view affects standards and quality e.g. A very poor 'Brandy sour' - tasteless - made with very poor quality brandy - replaced with the 'non all inclusive' version - back to the usual standard!!!!!!

Review 66:The location - being so near the sea is a huge advantage and the overall selling point for me

Review 67:Free wifi only in lobby. You need a car to go to the city center or to the airport, but at least you can find a supermarket right in front of the hotel and restaurants nearby.

Review 68:Free welcome drink, nice swimming pools and sea view, varied and tasty breakfast (ok even for vegetarians). The room was clean and full of light. The staff is friendly and non intrusive.

Review 69:Bedrooms really let it down Beds are not comfy AC works but is poor Only one socket in entire room Upgrade of bedrooms and this would be a top quality hotel

Review 70:The reception is really nice Bar food and dining were good quality. Sunbeds were best I've been on - top qaulity

Review 71:Wifi access should be accessible in hotel rooms not just the lobby for a 4 star hotel. Minibar choice was restricted.

Review 72:The hotel itself is lovely, spacious and clean. Breakfast choice was very good. Staff were friendly and always smiling. Spa treatments were very good and the beautician was lovely.

Review 73:- the food (we had better food in different hostels!!!) - the price, way to expensive for this "quality" - the location (yes, it's close to the sea bus despite this: nothing!! If you want to visit more you need a car)

Review 74:cheap but cozy design, close to the sea

Review 75:Wifi is availacle only in the lounge zone downstairs Sauna is for additional payment

Review 76:Tidy and nice beach Friendly and nice staff Neat and light rooms

Review 77:Wifi difficult to get in the lobby, hammam and sauna very expensive, 15euros each, not a real hammam. Possibility to change beach towels onlyonce every 3 days, only from 8 to 10:30 am.

Review 78:Quiet place, very nice and huge swimming pool. Quiet beach. Specialaward to stella mappoura, best receptionist, very helpful andprofessional. Real coffee and home made jams for breakfast. Late checkout free of charge at 3pm

Review 79:The food from the a'lacarte menu was scrumptious, We booked a table by the window and the staff treated us very well indeed. The pools are very good. Overall a very good hotel

Review 80:The music at night was very loud and if you wanted to go to bed early, it was hard to sleep. The music went every night until midnight.

Review 81:I went for a relaxing week. The staff was great. Was met at the desk with a refreshing lemonade and a cold cloth. My room was very spacious and the service was tremendous. Christina, the Concierge had many activities planned for the week such as wine tasting from a local winery, Greek dancing, music at night, and I also learned to cook a Greek dinner. The spa was also great. Rafaella, the spa attendant was very welcoming and I enjoyed a massage with a facial. The gym is spacious and just enough equipment to get a good workout in if you so choose. I liked the idea of choosing to sit by the pool or walk just past the pools and you are on the beach. Food was good and nicely priced. You could catch the bus right next to the hotel and you are in town within 15 min. Plus there were restaurants and supermarkets right across the street from the hotel too. Very enjoyable experience.

Review 82:The hotel is definitely not a 4 star. A good 3 star at best.Everything from fixtures to furniture is cheap. The rooms were renovated but unfinished, the bathrooms desperately need renovating.

Review 83:The staff was very friendly and the pools were nice.

Review 84:Not quality furniture -small bathroom -diffcult to use safety box - when ido check in on 3 pm istill wait my room until 3 :30.the policy of hotel check in on 2 pm. Bad elevator no more channel the use old key for room and its also heavy ti carry. Ithink hotel in cyprus very bad
