Guest reviews for Sultan Sands

4 out of 5
La gentillesse et le sourire du personnel. L'excellente et succulente cuisine qui variait sensiblement chaque jour, sa propreté. L'entretien parfait du lieu, du sable sur la plage de l'hôtel, du gazon, des arbres et arbustes du site. Orchestres et groupes de danses, chaque soir. Il y manquait un service de shuttle à la demande de l'hôtel vers le village, un bancomat pour y retirer de l'argent….
