exit signs hanging by wires, balcony railings loose, elevator buttons barely working. I was scalded by the shower, had to bail out and cut my foot. Will not return! Phone did not work right, and cover was off the phone jack. Got $84 off of my 3 night stay which was around $450 bucks. They said nothing was wrong with... More

Sugar Sands appears to be a Independent owned Hotel operated by a management company. This is the third time we have stayed there and our experience on the condition of the hotel is basically the same each time, It is located on the West end of PCB away from the crowds and parties. Almost no traffic this end of the... More

We did not have reservations, just stopped by as we were travling south. The guys at the desk, David & Clay? Welcomed us with open arms and David even showed us a room to make sure we were comfortable with our stay here. We loved it and stayed additional nights.

We visited over Spring Break. I liked the fact that the hotel was away from the wild spring breakers. The hotel needed a lot of updates. Pool was nice. Hot tub was very small. The showers coming from the beach had leaky hoses. Laundry facility needs a change machine. Parking is very tight. With some remodeling, this would be a... More

The location is ON the Beach and that is a fantastic plus. Otherwise nothing to brag about, but the location make up for the rest. The hotel needs renovation, specially the kitchen was ready to be thrown out, but all-in-all, for the money it was great as we only stayed for one night.

This is an excellent location, on the beach. Quiet area (west end). The rooms are spacious (had a King/Queen) with a kitchenette. The balcony is roomy and beautiful view of the ocean. Could do without the runoff area though. This hotel needs a renovation.

Okay, we went down there because my older son's baseball team was going.....this place was offered by the owner of the place my son was staying with his team. Evidently, they are friends, could be the same owner as far as I know. Anyway, we booked here at Sugar Sands, my husband and I and our other 2 children. We... More

I stayed at this hotel for Spring Break, since I was under the age of 25 I had to put a 300.00 deposit down. The hotel was good because it was on a quiter side of town, yet a close drive to all of the 'spring break action'. I stayed in the older motel style efficiencies that are across from... More
