...The funsters team is what makes it (The Sandbanks) better than anywhere else, they are all lively and energetic and they always have big smiles on their faces. When i was 6 i met some people there and ever since me and my family have been going there with them as we live 5 hours apart, Its magical. I look foward to it every year and it is the highlight of my summer, i definately recommend it. For younger children there is daily entertainment led by the funsters team, but also there is now an adults and teens activities section which keeps me entertained.The funsters Jimbob, Dizzi Danni, Jiggy Gemma, Fab Fran, Funky Faye, Mad Matt all deserve a special mention as each year they make my holiday extra special. My younger brother thoroughly enjoys it too...

I made my first visit to the Sandbanks Hotel this October for Halloween celebrations, mainly on the recommendations from other friends with families….The highlight for me and my family however was the entertainment. When we have visited similar hotels in the past we have enjoyed exploring the area, bad weather prevented this. So, we opted to let the children join in the entertainment, that was the only mistake we made...
As we couldn't get them to leave it for the rest of the holiday!!! The entertainers Dizzy Danni, Jimbob and Funky Faye were the most high spirited people I have ever seen! They not only provided amazing daytime children's entertainment throughout the holiday (which made us forget about any rain outside), but the nightly entertainment was fantastic. They managed to get everyone involved with games for the family, but side stepping any cheesy Butlin's feel. The children and myself couldn't have asked for anymore and will be, without any doubt be long standing guests from this point onwards.

My family and I have been staying at Sandbanks for ten years. Our children, now 16 and 14 have made a group of friends who always book at the same time and have and grown up with their annual reunion at Sandbanks being the high spot of the year.
When we first tried out the hotel, just for a couple of nights, our then four year old cried when we left - and the next time - and the time after that. The entertainers are like personal friends and the entertainment they put on is 'join in and enjoy yourself' games, dances, and competitions.
In the evening the young children are entertained in the ballroom whilst the adults have their meal in the dining room next door. The evening entertainments for the adults include competitions, quizzes and a show put on by the entertainers. They work so hard!
My wife and I have spent many happy hours simply keeping a watching eye on our children enjoying themselves - and if the children are enjoying themselves, the parents have a good holiday too.

Happy kids = Happy Mum and Dad!
Dizzy Danni and Jimbob Squarepants - the childrens' entertainers are worth their weight in gold. We have 3 children aged 11, 9 and 7 and the entertainers managed to cater for all needs. When the weather was sunny the children played rounders on the beach with the staff and when it rained alternative games were played inside the huge ball room. Every evening the Children's disco was a fantastic end to each day. Whether there were 50 kids or just 5, each child was made to feel special.
