SBH Jandia Resort

Really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. George on reception was so helpful Izzy part of animation team was great getting us all involved in activities Bar staff amazing both day & night Main restaurant tables were cleaned & tidied with speed no waiting. Food & drinks were great Pools were amazing, lots of sunbeds, outside space cleaned daily Stunning views Hotel clean and room was clean too If staying in standard room no kettle facilities however you can hirer a coffee machine Safe you have to pay 4.50 euros per day this is not a deposit Would I return, yes I would Thanks for a great stay

Where do I even start? An absolute mess for the money spent. 1. The resort is in shambles. Saying that it needs refurbishing is an understatement, it looks like it could shut down any day now. Ceilings are peeling off, so are walls, tiles in the pools are missing, hygiene is nowhere near 4 stars. Most of the chairs outside are broken and so are the umbrellas. Cracks in the walls, the “VIP area” which comprises of one small jacuzzi and 5 or so beds is a joke, the beds are filthy, and I could go on. 2. Big cockroaches in and around the resort. Granted, these cockroaches are everywhere on the island, but I didn’t expect to find them INSIDE the hotel. 3. Towels: you have to leave a 10€ deposit for each pool towel you take (this will be returned at the end of your stay), however if you want to swap said towels for clean ones, you have to pay 1€ for each towel (not returnable). 4. The mini fridge in the room: not stocked at all and barely working, not even. If you want to have water in your room, you need to buy it from the store, unless you want to carry a few glasses of water to your room. You’re also not allowed to bring drinks from outside the resort. 5. There’s a safe in the room, but guess what, you have to pay 4€ per day to use it. 6. AC in our room wasn’t working, but in our friends’ room it was so it depends on how lucky you get. 7. On the booking site it states that the bar for all inclusive guests is open until 00:00, they close it at 11PM (for all inclusive guests). The bar actually stays open until 1AM, however you have to pay for the drinks and none of the drinks come with straws. 8. While on this topic, on the paper they give you with the eating times it states that the late breakfast is served from 10:30 to 11:30. On the booking site it states that it lasts until 1PM. We get there to find out they don’t even do late breakfast. 9. There’s only one pool bar out of 4 pools, that’s located at the infinity pool, so is the animation team. 10. The animation team in my opinion is heavily focused on the kids, not much for the adults in there. 11. The “toiletries” are as follows: one handsoap and one body and hair shampoo? Shower gel? I don’t even know. 12. The coffee machines in the restaurant are closed after breakfast, however you can have coffee near the pool bar. 13. Overall the food was tasty, however there is not much to choose from and many times we’ve seen food be reused (they had rice with chicken on a day and the next day they had rice with seafood, or so the label said, because the rice had chicken in it too, not just seafood) and this is just one instance, I could go on. The island in itself was beautiful and the resort wasn’t busy (but I can see now why). I wouldn’t recommend this resort, I’m not sure why they have 4 stars.

A weeks stay review from a mum and her adult 25 years old son. A super value for money hotel , exceptional friendly house keeping , you get clean towels every day beds re made , polished windows , and very clean comfy beds , basic , no coffee or tea makers a nice clean large hotel , The food was plentiful , great quality and very well presented. The dining staff where hard working and friendly , For myself and son we wanted a quiet peaceful holiday but The pools for us where just too noisy with lots of children and activities going on so we tried all 3 pools thinking there might be an adult only but there was not so we went to the beach every day , £18 euros for 2 beds , the beach is 10 mins an easy walk , via a gate road and a safe board walk it was of white clean sand and as good as any tropical beaches , the the sea was turquoise color and clean , with huge rolling waves at some points , there is also a beach bar but food is expensive . The entertainment is plentiful for children and families , The drinks where only given out in very small glasses , and we did have to Que at times all inclusive finishes at 12 pm bottled water is not included so you have to buy it , The only negative - point I would say is that the reception staff are very rude , especially the woman with black rimmed glasses , Over all a very nice hotel , we had a lovely time , pity about reception i would have given it a 5*
