Hi Nod, Myself and Lynne were at the Sandos Papagayo when this was filmed. We were there from 11th January to 8th February 2024 for one month and back again from 27th April to 18th May 2024 (three weeks), this would have been our seventh visit to the Hotel. I can see the two sunbeds at 26:10 that we used and as you walk back from the nine-hole Golf course at 27:20, myself walking left-to-right. We upgraded to Royal Elite option and what a difference it makes. We have met people there who have been x-amount of times previously and people who have arrived for the first time and would return. We will be going back on January 2025.
@@daviddevlin696 Hi David Yeah we really loved this hotel, we never go back to the same hotel twice but we r struggling not to go back to this on. Such a beautiful hotel and the sunsets were some of the best we have seen… Gonna have a look back at this vlog this afternoon to see if I can spot u😁☀️
Thank u Jacqui we did😊 the hotel was amazing, we never go back to the same hotel twice but we wouldn’t hesitate to go there again… And a very Happy Easter to u to for Nod and Deb🐣
@@lisadoc4436 next Sunday 3pm… If u want something to keep u occupied in the mean time we have lots of other holiday series’ u can binge watch so pls feel free😁☀️
Thank u so much so ur comment, lots more to come over the next few months but if u want more in the mean time we have lots more past series’ u can binge watch so feel free to enjoy😊☀️
Beautiful Hotel been on numerous times with my husband ,going back this October . Just at the side of the gym is another set of lifts which take you up to the resturants ,so there is more than one entrance .
@@DawnConnolly-y2k hi Dawn… We have never been to the same hotel twice but might just have to make an exception so we can find these lifts that I missed😁 Not that we r going to need much of an excuse cos we loved this hotel… and we all know u will have a fab time in October☀️
@@kerrielangford2956 Hi Kerrie We didn’t go royal elite I’m afraid… Apparently the only difference is u get named spirits and comfy sofas to sit on in the RE lounge , and it is obviously quieter in there as only in there as on RE guests r allowed in… hope this helps and have an awesome holiday☀️
@nodanddeb thank you for the quick reply your vids have been very informative keep up the good work.....I'm sure we will absolutely love it over there thanks again
Was spot on mate, much better than I was expecting… so many different places to chill and tan but not much nightlife unless get an uber into playa Blanca but loads to do in the hotel… pls let us know ur thoughts when u get back☀️
@@Chrisbcfc there is air con in the room but we didn’t need it as it was really early in the yr so wasn’t that warm on a night and we had a nice breeze from the balcony when we were in during the day
We did mate, we thought Playa Blanca was better but would def go back to Costa Teguise again… we haven’t been to del Carmen yet so thinking of going there next time☀️
Hello guys great video we are heading there in two weeks time can I just ask you don't they have the small tables next to the sun loungers the ones with the drinks holders so your drinks don't BLOW over ???? Thanks in advance
Hi Phil, They didn’t have any when we were there, but we just put our drinks under the lounger so they were out the way and didn’t get knocked over… Not jealous at all that u r going there in 2 weeks🤪 sure u will have an awesome time… pls let us know ur thoughts when u get back☀️
It wasn’t open when we were there, I assumed it only opens further in the season when it is busier? But we also thought that the normal entertainment in the complex was still worth a watch☀️
@@amandastoneman5386 hi Amanda yeah the views were stunning, I (nod) was very unsure at the beginning but really loved it by the end and wouldn’t hesitate to go back, and yeah we had a really good time thanks☀️
I’m staying in here in May, did use upgrade to Royal Elite and if so would you recommend it over normal. Also what room did use have? Apologies if said already.
@@mc24564 hiya, the room we stayed in was a superior room too and was very nice👍🏻 we didn’t bother with royal elite but the normal food and bars were more than adequate for everyone we spoke to☀️ Who r u flying with?
Mate I was very unsure when we 1st got there but I wouldn’t hesitate to go back… the hotel was massive, loads of different places to chill, 3 pools one is an adults only section, food was awesome… no night life outside the hotel tho u would have to get an uber into playa Blanca. But is 24hr all inclusive with good entertainment on the night and the sunsets r unreal (watch travel day☀️ for that) If u have any questions just give us a shout👍🏻
@nodanddeb not really seen much of the food and when it's available on site.. is it 24 hours or only certain times.. we are going all-inclusive plus when we do book with a sea view
@@gaztricband2699 food is set restaurant times but there is a snack bar by the pool that is open 11-6, we do a full restaurant tour later in the series… drinking is 24hr as the snack bar reopens at 11pm until 8 in the morning… If u r flying with jet2 all inclusive plus it mean u get branded spirits at the bar rather then the house paint stripper but u must tell them as there is no way to tell otherwise👍🏻
@@gaztricband2699 cheers mate really appreciate it… I can imagine, we have be privileged to get away a few times in the last yr and we r always looking forward to the next one… I’m sure u will have an awesome time and u will have to let us know ur thoughts when u get back👍🏻 Keep watching the rest of the series as I missed a few things on the tour as there is so many different areas in the hotel☀️
Hi Nod, we met you at Fanabae market last September. Watching your vlog and just wondering is there walk in steps for the pool or is it just ladder type?
Hi Mandy, yeah I remember u hope u r well?😊 Not gonna lie from what I remember there isn’t any walk in steps to the pools and I’ve just gone back thru the hotel tour vlog and it certainly doesn’t look like there r any, which is a shame cos it is a lovely hotel☀️
@@mandythomas4970 yeah that is a shame😔 We have just come back from Tenerife where the hotel we stayed in had walk in ramps to the pools and what looked like a full block of accessibility rooms too👍🏻☀️
@@paulcowen1976 me too, I took them just in case but never wore them… Not jealous at all that ur there in 2 weeks honest🤪 Pls let us know ur thoughts when u get back☀️
Hi, the royal elite part is just a posher exclusive area of the hotel that u pay an up charge for… I have included the link below that will take u straight to the description on their website, hope this helps☀️ www.sandos.com/sandos-papagayo/royal-elite-sandos-papagayo

Hi Miriam…
We had a newly refurbished superior room overlooking the dune… room was lovely☀️
I’m staying in here in May, did use upgrade to Royal Elite and if so would you recommend it over normal. Also what room did use have? Apologies if said already.
I’m staying in Superior room, without Royal Elite btw.

@@mc24564 r u all inclusive? If so u should have all inclusive plus
