What guests think
At The Sands Torquay, travelers highlight spacious, modern rooms and a peaceful golf-course setting within a short walk of the beach, along with friendly, accommodating staff and useful facilities like a heated pool, gym and on-site dining.
Many rooms are large, comfortable and offer golf-course views, though several guests who paid for 'golf view' were disappointed by ground-floor outlooks obscured by bushes or by allocation to the car-park side. Food quality is often praised, but dining can be inconsistent with closures on some nights, early last orders, limited late options and occasional breakfast queues or changes away from buffet service. Cleanliness is generally strong yet occasionally inconsistent, and a few reports note maintenance or access issues such as pool or gym availability, older air-conditioning, or minor service lapses. Overall, expect a quiet, comfortable stay suited to golfers and beachgoers who value space and calm.
