This resort was completely full when we arrived. It has a beautiful lobby. After a short delay we were given freshly painted rooms - the smell was awful, but we had no other choice. We had Seaside rooms, ground floor patio, but the ocean is quite far away across a lawn and beach. There's no surf noise because the reef... more

Spent three nights here, having spent a week in this hotel in 2006 with our two teenage daughters. Now even better and our sea view room had been recently redecorated. The bathroom is a little dated (coloured suite) but everything works. The grounds are beautiful and sitting in a deckchair overlooking the ocean is wonderful. Pools are great, extensive range... more

I was there as part of a Safari Classic Rally Team and stayed last in 2007. The hotel is generally spot on, it's clean, the staff helpful and attentive, food is prepared to a good standard and the bar and restaurant facilities very acceptable. If you want a very quiet room ask for one near the Spa facility. Rooms numbered... more

The food was awesome. I enjoyed the water sports (jet skiing was my favorite), swimming, and salsa classes at Cocos Beach Bar. Very good for family vacations as kids will definitely enjoy the various kids activities. more

Having read some of the reviews on this hotel before my trip I have to say I was a little apprehensive, I am happy to say I was pleasantly surprised, the staff where extremely polite and helpful. Yes the rooms are a little dated but they are clean I didn’t find any problems with the bedding and the room was... more

This is a good hotel with very friendly staff and brilliant gardens. The rooms are good but the bathrooms could do with a bit of updating.The food was reasonable and the choice was very good. Go to Cocoes bar by the beach for your evening drinks as there is always a nice breeze blowing in from the sea. A bottle... more

Whitesands is an experience to be had. There is a very thin line between business and pleasure here. Superb facilities, beach bars restaurants, hotel entertainment. Cant wait for my next trip with my family just to unwind and forget the hustle for a while.... more

Arrived via Nairobi after one week safari to chill out. You can do as much or as little as you like. After breakfast in main restaurant, plenty of choice, did not see teenage daughters, apart from at pool, until after dinner in evening. Main restaurant for evening okay but tended to use Pasta Snack Bar. Putting flag up to top... more
