Our stay with The Sandpiper was simply divine. The accommodation was well appointed and comfortable. The food and drink which we experienced in our half board was lovely. The hotel itself has created an environment which feels special but without pretentiousness. But the most wonderful thing about it all is the kind, caring, warm team at The Sandpiper.

The Sandpiper is compact (just 47 rooms) & nestled on a lovely beach. The food is OUTSTANDING and the staff cannot do enough for their guests. Its not an uber modern 5* hotel - so don't expect 24 hr room service or the latest sound systems in the rooms - but everything works really well otherwise. Super big comfy beds, the BEST aircon in rooms, wide veranders, quiet respectful guests who also value peace, a well equiped gym and lovely, lush gardens. Theres a small upmarket shopping mall within a short walk - and big supermarket and pharmacy very close too. This really is a hotel where you can relax and recharge - and enjoy a wonderful holiday after all the crazy times we've experinced recently

We have just returned from a 12 night stay at The Sandpiper Hotel and cannot praise this hotel enough.
We stayed in room 22 which was right next to the beach. The room was fantastic and spotlessly clean which was maintained daily.
The location of the hotel was great for a 5 minute walk into the center of Holetown .
The staff at the hotel can only be described as second to none, They are all really attentive and nothing was to much trouble.
All of the staff were Brilliant but we would like to thank Lemar and Terrence from the bar area who were constantly on the ball and also David from the restaurant who served us breakfast. In fact a very big Thank You to everyone at The Sandpiper for making our stay extra special.
We would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely return.
Thank You Sandpiper - Wayne and Russell and all of your loyal staff.
