Spent one night at Sands by the Sea and had a great time. Right by the water, and at night they had fires going and games during the day. Would definitely come back.

The room had dirty carpet and no AC. A sealing fan was available, but when I tried to leave it on during night time, the light would dim but I was not able to turn it off completely. So I ended turning off the fan, although it was hot in the room.

"Incredibly disappointing"

3.0

Location is stunning, fire pits and games were great

Room was filthy dirty. Never stayed somewhere so dirty. We had to wash our feet after walking on the bedroom floor barefoot - they were black. Given the price I'm appaled by the state of the rooms

I stayed at the property with my daughter and grandson and it was great to be able to walk to the beach, use the heated pool and enjoy s’mores by the fire. We had an excellent time and felt safe/ the staff person who checked us in was nice and very informative.
