This was the perfect place to get away and simply be. The resort is breathtaking. We were fortunate to be in a second floor room that was the closest to the beach so we had unobstructed views of that incredible landscape and the incessantly rolling waves. Staff were incredibly attentive as needed and responsive to every need. A great place... More

We have just enjoyed a lovely, relaxing stay at this beautiful resort. We stayed in a two-bed Beach House with our 11 month old baby. We were provided with a baby bed and a high-chair and the kitchen is really well equipped. The living room and main bedroom are beautiful rooms with fantastic views. The bed was one of the... More

...as you approach the Pacific Ocean, in awe of Long Beach and the surf, turn left into Pacific Sands drive and it hits you- you are away. Nature takes over, the grand evergreens, the mist from the sea, and the sounds of the surf lull you into total relax mode. The staff are friendly, accomodating and efficient, the villas ,... More

Wow! My third time here, and the first time was perfect, but it keeps getting better! The villas are luxurious and spacious for our group. We bring snacks and some food so always do at least one meal in the spacious kitchen and dining area. This year we had fresh local crab, and it was amazing. We used the resort's... More

We went on our first trip with our 3-month-old son and dog to Pacific Sands. The room and view were fantastic. The kitchen was small, but functional and the access to gourmet kitchen gadgets was great. We made a delicious seafood paella with fresh crab. The oven was way too small for a baking pan though. You probably need a... More

I continually come back to Pacific Sands Beach Resort each year to enjoy the five star Villa accommodation in the most picture perfect setting. I love that I can bring my dog with me to enjoy the long walks along the beach. The villa is stunning, the kitchen is well equipped with all the essentials we needed to enjoy dinners... More

Just spent 2 nights at the Pacific Sands with my friend and 2 labs. Pacific Sands is so great for dogs. Luna and Zeke had a special welcome pail with towels, bowls and treats and even had a special welcome letter. Outside was a dog washing area to get the sand off from the trips to the beach. The rooms... More

We spent 3 night at Pac Sands, in a Lighthouse suite and then a Villa, after not being there since 2009. We were very impressed by the updates and upgrades. Everything was immaculately clean and both units very well-appointed; if we needed anything else ( like a huge crab pot or blender) we just had to go to the desk.... More

This past weekend we stayed at the Pacific Sands for the first time. We had a 3rd floor suite in the Lodge. It was very quiet. We loved the view and ate several meals on the balcony. Weather was awesome, which was a real bonus. Suite was well equipped and very comfortable. We brought food with us and got 'take... More
