A Maltese gem

Quiet location with private beach. Great facilities from several restaurants, to gym, to small in-house deli. Pools overlooking beach. Easy access to Gozo ferry or Valletta. Lovely outlook. If you're lucky, you’ll get a beautiful sunset thrown in.

The beach view from our 1-bedroom apartment was awesome, and the size of rooms and balcony was great, with adequate kitchen setup, including the dishwasher, and two large closets to hang our stuff in. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the furniture a little tired and in need of an upgrade. Robes and slippers were very much appreciated. My only complaint is the odor. I think it was coming from nearby fields being fertilized, but quite unpleasant and could sometimes be felt all the way up on 6th floor.

The staff throughout were friendly, helpful and professional. Hotel and grounds were sparkling clean. Wonderful fresh buffet breakfast with great choices and the restaurants served reasonably priced delicious meals. Many thanks to all who helped make our stay so memorable.

We had the most amazing view of the bay from our room that it was hard to believe that it was real. The hotel is in a bit of a secluded area, but there are plenty of things at the hotel and around and uber rides were easy and convenient to nearby locations. The staff were absolutely amazing and we felt very well taken care of the entire trip. Our room felt a little dated but very clean and again: that view!!!

We had a great week staying at the hotel. On the whole the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The communal areas and rooms were spotlesssly clean, although like other travellers reviews the bedroom furniture was outdated. I travelled with my disabled son, all areas were accessible nd staff always offered to help me. The private beach was lovely

We just returned from our trip. Radisson golden sands is a lovely hotel. I had emailed them prior asking for us to stay in the middle tower but they were full and allowed us to change rooms the next day. We were in the sunset suite room first which we found quite dated and there was a smell in the kitchen area. We were then moved to the twilight tower which is much closer to the pool, restaurants and beach. This room was so much better. The staff were very accommodating and helpful especially Chetan. The only thing I would say is they don't have half board and not enough vegetarian selection in the main buffet restaurant in the evening. So eating at the italian or indian restaurant does get a bit repetitive. Another thing is that the hotel lacks daytime and evening entertainment. There was also not much music being played.Pool side food and drinks were good. Breakfast was fantastic. Lots of choice. The beach is very close either access via stairs or lifts. Pool chairs at the beach or pool cannot be reserved which is good. So we didn't have to get up at a silly hour to get any. Any unattended towels get removed in 30 minutes but ours got removed in 5 minutes. My son noticed and luckily I managed to get the towels back and place them again otherwise we would have lost our chairs if I was 5 seconds late. This happened twice to us and I spoke to security as they were the ones who removed them. They did apologise but it is something to be aware of. Overall the hotel is excellent.
