We have visited The Sands at Nomad several times. And it's absolutely our spot! And we've always thought that everything was great: Service is top notch, food, ambiance and setting is perfect and the rooms great! And then. Then we decided to get married there, and got blown away! We came to Claudia & Richard with basically nothing but this:... More
