We have stayed here numerous times over the past year. For larger groups the small suites are excellent. Very roomy with all amentities. Very clean. Even supplied the log for the fireplace. Very pet friendly. Lots of trails to the beach. Both indoor and outdoor pools. Front desk has always been friendly and the prices fit our tight budget nicely.... More

A good budget minded choice for a great weekend getaway. Rooms were average and clean. Nothing to write home about. But a decent place to lay your head after playing all day.

The Sands is actually a couple motels owned by the same company. Both sides are budget, but if you really don't have much cash and don't care about your room, rent on the "off shore" side. Not necessarily very clean, very old, not in great repair, but you still have use of all facilities. The on-shore side is much nicer,... More

We stayed here for the Irish Music Festival. I'm not at all picky like some people, this place was clean, had a bed, couch,tv and kitchen with all the utensils and the people were very friendly. It served it's purpose, a place to stay and was very close to the venues and free shuttle service. I will stay again, even... More

The Sands has been remodeled since I was last there and it has a vacation feel. I was traveling with teens and had a good time. The staff was helpful and brought extra pillows and answered any questions we had. The kids enjoyed the pool and some of the activities near-by. We stayed in the less expensive room and were... More

Clean room...But for the price...I was suprised you could feel the springs in the mattress. Very old bed. When told the front desk about this , she just said I will let them know..Come on, like we are the first to complain of this? I think not. Besides, very pleasant stay...Just a terrible , uncomfortable bed for 100 plus dollars... More

We stayed in a ground floor ocean front unit in the North building. The rooms were clean, they've had a facelift since the last time I visited, so they are better. Nice shower curtain, courtesy soaps, etc. They supposedly didn't have extra pillows when we called the office asking for those, but I have a hard time believing this. They... More
