With rooms for the business traveller to rooms for families, the Sandbanks Hotel caters for all. Our rooms include Tea and Coffee making facilities, Hairdryer, Toiletries, Free Wi-Fi and use of the Leisure Facilities. For families, the major attraction is perhaps the sandy beach with its Blue Flag for cleanliness, with RNLI lifeguards on duty in the summer season. There 's also the 10m heated indoor swimming pool and the organised entertainment programme that helps to keep children occupied (and gives the adults time to enjoy themselves too). If rest and relaxation is your aim, you may be happy just sitting and wandering along t he beach. For Watersports, our Watersports Academy is on the doorstep. Here you may take courses or just hire the equipment you need. You can choose from a wide range of activities, including windsurfing, kite surfing, wakeboarding, power boating, dinghy sailing, diving, kayaking and bike riding (and we have tow-alongs, trailers and mini-bikes for children). If you wish to venture further afield, you can also charter our 44 sailing catamaran, or one of our ribs.
