    Perfect, aside from staff treatment by Maltese

    The only thing i didn’t like was how the Maltese managers treat the staff. I’ve seen this appalling behaviour at many establishments in Malta & Gozo now & its v shocking & disappointing to see & hear how they exploit & treat the people working for them. Please tip staff DIRECT also & to their hand or they wont be allowed to keep it. 🙏 Maltese - please think about updating your behaviour towards your workers, it puts a bad name in Raddison’s.

    Was a beautiful, relaxing stay, with friendly helpful staff, will definitely return.

    Nothing much to criticise: Breakfast opened at little later in my opinion, during peak seasons I think parking would be a nightmare as there wasn't many spaces. Anyone booking should be aware that there isn't much in the area surround the hotel.

    I loved the room which has many facilities. Good variety of choices of dinner within the hotel. I ordered at the restaurant and took it back to the room, food was very nice and of a good quality. Check-in was easy and staff were very good and explained everything. Checkout was easy too. This stay exceeded my expectations and i would considering coming back again.

    The breakfast was amazing - so much variety to choose from! The hotel itself and the staff were friendly and hospitable. Furthermore, the location of the hotel meant that everything I wanted to see in the city was easily accessible to get to. 100% recommend for all who come to Malta to stay here!

    The staff were all welcoming and helpful. Our room was very clean and so was the rest of the hotel, even the outside dining areas. As we were there celebrating my boyfriend's birthday, we were also offered a cake and made especially for his dietry requirements. We had room service, food was good and dined at the Agliolio Restaurant were the staff were friendly and the food was delicious. A stay I would definitely recommend.

    Its a huge hotel outside the city. Surrounding nature makes it perfect if you prefer tranquility and relaxation. This complex has everything ….. pools, spa treatments, saunas, shops and restaurants. Indian restaurant had superb tastes. Rooms were nicely decorated and well equipped …… minibar, ironing table, slippers, cupps & glasses were all there. Also bed and pillows were extra comfy. We truly enjoyed our stay.

    The only thing to mention is the Italian restaurant- the food is rather good (with exceptions, absolutely dreadful risotto), but the stuff, or maybe rather some waiters seem to be almost upset they have to work there. A jarring difference from the rest of the hotel stuff, who, once again, are wonderful people through and through.

    Wonderful localisation in the middle of nothing where you can walk and walk for miles. The hotel itself is big, but not overcrowded. Our room was spacious and comfortable with an outstanding view from the balcony. The stuff (mostly, but we'll get to that) helpful and attentive. Breakfast desrve a special shout out. Everything one can need yet without that feeling of wastefulness you get in some big resorts. Wonderful omelets. Also, the stuff at breakfast absolutely polite and welcoming, making every day a bit brighter for the guests (I sadly don't remember the name of the older gentleman welcoming people at the door, but he was an absolute joy to talk to)

    There is no kids/baby swing in the playground. The kids room is hardly open and not much for the kids to do other than the beach and those couple hours of kids clubs. You can hear other toilets flushing in the bathroom which was slightly disturbing.

    The staff were particularly amazing and the beach was lovely. The room was quiet at night and comfortable. The staff helped us a lot and were really top notch.

    It was a relaxing weekend break

    One aspect that I found disappointing was the inconsistency in enforcing the rule regarding the indoor pool's designated adults-only time between 13:00 and 16:00. Despite this policy, on a Saturday afternoon around 14:00, there were still families with children present, causing noise disturbances by shouting and screaming, and even jumping in the pool and hot tub. It was only after some guests expressed their concerns at the spa that a member of the staff intervened. Consistency in enforcing rules, such as the adults-only time and the prohibition on jumping/diving during other hours, seemed lacking.

    The breakfast at Radisson Golden Sands was excellent with a wide array of choices available. The room was also clean and equipped with all necessary amenities. The staff were attentive and accommodating, providing helpful assistance throughout our stay.

    This is not a critic, but just a couple of things to be careful about. There’s a funny smell coming from the drainage in the toilets, but at least that was the case in our bedroom maybe not in every single room. I would advise to the staff of the spa, to pay a little more attention to the quality of the cleaning in the sauna and Turkish bath.

    Is the second time we stay in this structure and as always, we get astonished by the special treatment from the staff and the facilities. The fact that you can go to the spa and enjoy the internal pool with your son is priceless. The quality of the breakfast is incredible. Definitely looking forward to stay there for the third time!
