We have stayed at Golden Sands many times over the past decade or so and love the true beachfront location. Our preferred apartment is 503, which is a beautifully refurbished 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment. It has an amazing view, quality furniture, new full kitchen with stone bench top and stainless steel Smeg appliances (it also has a Nespresso machine, which the other apartments I have stayed in there don’t have) and 2 luxe bathrooms (one with a freestanding bath) and the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The sound system and the 3 televisions are a nice touch. Love the concrete floor in the living areas and the soft carpet in the bedrooms. So good to have air con in the living area and both bedrooms, as well as a full laundry with washer, dryer and tub. It was fantastic to visit again after a couple of years to see that the complex has been completely modernised. It has been repainted, new balcony railings and tiles and the common areas have all been upgraded. The tennis court and pool areas have also been modernised. The place looks brand new! The managers Barbara and Ernie really couldn’t do enough for us and keep the place spotlessly clean and the gardens manicured. This is deluxe accomodation in a first rate location, with no roads to cross and a private stairway to the beach. Also no road noise and no cranes (there is a lot of construction going on in Main Beach). I have booked our next stay at Golden Sands already and can’t wait to go back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Golden Sands. I don’t think we’ve ever stayed anywhere with a better view over the ocean, it was even winter at the time and we still loved it. We love the beach life when we travel so this place was perfect. I recommend!
