Here is one pic from your site with the Raddsison Golden Sands in background ......

That's our hotel and please...it is a Radisson SAS hotel. On opening it hosted the Commonwealth meeting (you know, the Queen and all...) who is another Range Rover fan...but I gather she did not take in the local Lap and Pole Dancing Bar in St Julians (where the other Radisson SAS hotel is located - was that enough advertising?). 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

Radisson SAS Golden Sands Resort & Spa

We offer four swimming pools including one large outdoor swimming pool, a 90-metre lagoon pool, a children's pool and an indoor swimming pool. The sandy beach below is directly accessible from the resort and in addition, the resort has its own private and fully-serviced beach. A full range of water sports, including a diving centre are included in the private beach.

We offer a fully-equipped 1,000-sq metre Spa & Leisure Centre, which is the most sought after on the island. With huge open glass windows directly overlooking the bay, the view is quite spectacular

The hotel is owned and operated by the Zahra family (under the direction of Winston Jr.) under license from Rezidor SAS Hospitality in Brussels - we license and/or operate all Radisson SAS hotels in EMEA - and yes, Winston has always had very cool cars which, as I've pointed out to him, seems crazy on an Island. We do not however, have anything to do with their timeshare business... You should not be pestered if you go there as a Radisson SAS guest...but if you choose to take them up on a "see our vacation ownership" junket offer, then you are honour bound to sit through the presentation....that said, the two Radisson SAS hotels are very nice. 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

Timeshare business is ruining tourism in Malta . I remember while I was working on the construction site, tourist where shown around to buy timeshare while trying not fall in one of the many inspection pits which where being dug up. This year was the worst for tourism .
This country has a lot to offer in history and wilderness, but it seems no one care to use it to attract tourists .

Access I couldn't agree more. Everyone I spoke to im Malta this year were commenting on the low tourist figures.

As for timeshare - as a "Family" we already have "Gold Crown" 2 weeks prime "red" time . as we speak my sister and family are using it to holiday in Florida/Disney, it did have it perks in the early days when we could swap [ bank ] 2 weeks european time in exchange for 4 weeks in america and still get the use of the 2 weeks at the resort we bought in - when the weeks weren't taken up at the resort = fantastic. But, sadly this is no more.

Timeshare still brings tourists to the Island but they aren't spending their money in Maltese hotels. Lets just hope they spend plenty in the shops?

The only problem with the Radisson SAS Golden Sands Resort & Spa is its location = it's a bit too remote which means to see all our relatives we'll have to hire a car & spend most of the time travelling to anf from

But it is FREE
