Hotel Review
Golden Sands, St Brelade, Jersey
The most affordable of the seafront hotels on the popular western bay of St Brelade's, this hotel is full of heart and holiday spirit. Open seasonally from the beginning of May until the end of October, the guests are all here looking for a bucket-and-spade beach holiday. Enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner with sea views as the public rooms run parallel to the promenade with floor-to-ceiling windows. There's no pool, but there are lifeguards on the beach to ensure safe sea swimming. Rooms are either sea-facing with balconies or look out to the gardens and trees behind the hotel, and are decorated in either nautical blues or calming creams and browns. The menu is packed with popular choices such as fish and chips, burgers and steaks.
