Outstanding service,location, cleanliness and hospitality. We really enjoyed our stay even the weather couldn't ruin our short break. My partners peculiar food requirements were met with a smile and delivered without complaint .The Sea view was breath taking and well worth the extra payment.

Excellent location towards the edge of Paignton but within 10 mins easy flat walking of the town centre. The location was perfect for us, overlooking the rows of colourful beach huts and a wonderful sea view with Torquay to the left and Brixham to the right. We walked into Torquay one day and it took less than 40 mins. Carol... More

Had a lovely weekend away with my wife and young 2 year old, we were really well looked after by our excellent hosts. The breakfast was vast and yummy, special little touches like a car egg cup made the little ones stay special as well. On top of all that the view from the breakfast room is spectacular, you wont...

We have had another fantastic stay at the Torbay Sands Hotel. We have lost count of how many times we have stayed here.Carol and Martin do everything they can to make this feel like a home from home, nothing is too much bother. Clean and comfortable right on the beach and an excellent breakfast.Try it for yourself.

We have stayed with Carol & Martin several times and have never been disappointed. If you are are looking to stay in a spotlessly clean hotel with excellent food, and the warmest of welcomes you will not find anywhere better, you will arrive as guests and leave as friends. Highly recommend any one thinking of taking a break in Paignton... More

What a wonderful Easter break. Despite the weather we had a wonderfully warm welcome from Carol & Martin and enjoyed watching the storms from the warmth & comfort of our room. The hotel is right on the beach and is spotlessly clean with breakfasts that are awesome. It's not the first time we have stayed with them & will not... More

Could not have wished for a better place to stay for our three night break. Hospitality,cleanliness and comfort of room plus mega breakfast all excellent. Really good central location but at the same time in a quiet and peaceful cul de sac with great sea views. A big thankyou to Carol and Martin.

Extremely welcoming hosts, spotlessly clean all round, very comfy room with stunning sea view & very nice breakfast :) This trip was paid for by my husbands parents as an early xmas present & pre-baby arrival break & they couldn't have picked a better one! Would definitely recommend and return in the future :)

Clean,welcoming and perfectly located with charming and helpful hosts. Not the biggest room I have stayed in but I slept well and the price was very reasonable. Good to have plenty of car parking available.

We love Marine Parade as it's quiet and away from the town and main roads. Hosts Carol and Martin are lovely, down to earth and attentive. Prices very reasonable, The cooked breakfast excellent, room spotless and beds comfortable. The sea view from the room is stunning. I would recommend Torbay Sands to anybody and everybody!! We shall return!!
