Your description of the property states that is adjoining the Southern Cross Resort with dining and bar facilities. This was the main reason for choosing Desert Sand. The Southern Cross Resort has been closed for some years. Very disappointed

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The place had no comunity kitchen. The rooms are presented poorly. Unable to use the wifi. Had people walking in and out all night through a loud gate right next to our room not to mention using drills upstairs at a ridiculous hour of the night. Pool area has no shade and is dirty. No room service towels toilet paper etc every morn as you should. Over rated and waste of money. Never again would I stay there

There was no fly screen on the bathroom window, the back of the front door and frame was dirty., there were too many cockroaches in the room, and we only saw a staff member once and that's when we went for a swim. I think the air conditioner has seen better days.

The hotel reception was closed even though it advertised 24 hour service. The onsite restaurant closed and not just the day we arrived so that was misleading as it looked like its been closed for months.
