Onsite Safety/Security: Justifiably unregistered non-paying guests pay for services so there are no freeloaders or unknowns using of property! Location: Quiet. Excellent beach across the road, very easy walking to town shops, supermarket. Rooms: Simple, clean, comfortable. Staff: Helpful, professional. Highly Recommend: Will return!! Value: Great for the money!!

Overpriced. Poorly maintained. Non-responsive staff (office failed to check messages & return calls). If I hadn't needed a room for a last minute job, I wouldn't have even checked in. The only positive thing I can say is that it's right on the beach. So are a lot of other motels. Don't waste your time or money on the Sands.

Stayed for one night before the start of Labor Day Weekend, we booked another resort nearby for Fri-Mon and decided to head out a day earlier and wanted a more economical option for the Thursday night so I chose the Sands. We had a standard room with a balcony and partial ocean view, the room was small and very very... More

We stayed in the suites located across the street from motel office over 3 nights labor day weekend. We read reviews saying how they charge you for extra people etc, considering this was already over $1000 for the weekend we were worried if we had extra people. Upon check out we realized they were indeed spying on us, counting the... More

We just got back from 5 days at the Sands. The rooms were extremely clean as well as the pool. It was our 2nd time there and would continue going back. Unlike some of the others who wrote reviews we found the staff to be friendly. Some more then others It is well worth the price

We stayed in a one bedroom at the Sands for 3 nights in August. Our room was a little outdated, with an older tv. However the tv worked well, with full cable. All of the rooms do not look like this though. We were there with 3 other couples, and one couples one bedroom seemed like it had been upgraded... More

Our suite did have some upgrades (flat screen TV's, new mattresses and new couches). The suite was extrememly clean, and had everything we needed, even if it was a bit... More

A vintage motel (Babe Ruth stayed here) but nicely restored, and clean. one row of rooms is on the second floor, and the other row of rooms is set back from the street. We had an ocean view with a little deck, working fridge, for $179 in the high season. The bathroom was freshly tiled. You can easily access this... More

Just got back from a five day vacation with our grandaughter. We were very satisfied with our accommodations. We stayed in the 2 1/2 room condo. Very clean - housekeeping did a great job. This is the second time we stayed here and will again! Its a beach hotel - very comfortable. The location is the best!!!
