    My stay at The Sand Dunes was delightful! The room was clean and provided easy access to the beach, with a lovely view overlooking the ocean. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring our comfort during our stay.

    Parking can be chaotic.

    old outlets
    poor parking

    beach access, private balcony, full kitchen

    The outlets in the room felt outdated and a couple seemed like fire hazards!!! The air conditioning was excessively loud, making it difficult to sleep. The parking situation was cramped and chaotic. The toilet was comically small!!!

    full kitchen
    cleanliness issues
    parking chaos

    The room had a nice ocean view, making mornings beautiful when I could step out to my private balcony. The full kitchen offered convenience if I chose to cook, which I found appealing. The bed provided a good night's sleep, comfortable without any lumpy issues. Staff placed balloons and a card in my room for our anniversary, a thoughtful touch. On the downside, the bathroom felt cramped. tiny shower stall and limited space didn't work well for families. The room needed better attention to cleanliness. I noticed dust and some cockroaches that made me uneasy. The parking situation was chaotic. I couldn't find a spot close to my room. The air conditioner struggled to maintain a good temperature and was incredibly noisy, making it tough to relax. Overall, while there were enjoyable moments, some serious issues take away from the experience.

    pool hit

    Families beware!

    Been going to the same spot for years. Super cozy with the kids, the pool was a hit! And the self-check in made everything much easier, I didn't have to deal with the front desk.

    Not exactly cheap, I mean, what in the world happened to prices?

    chaotic parking
    noisy air conditioning
    cleaning issues

    The oceanfront suite offered beautiful views, and the kitchen was well-stocked, making meal prep easy. Access to the beach was exceptional, allowing for easy exploration. However, the parking situation was chaotic, and the air conditioning was quite noisy, making for a less comfortable stay. Some areas of the suite could use a thorough cleaning to enhance the overall experience.

    A Memorable Oceanfront Escape!

    Our stay in Room 317 was refreshing! The oceanfront view from the private balcony was breathtaking. The kitchenette made meals easy, and the updated bathroom was a convenient touch. For future guests, try out breakfast by the beach – it’s a must! Enjoy!

    great location

    our stay at sand dunes was fantastic! the staff was super friendly and quickly changed our room to an oceanfront suite. the kitchen was well equipped, which made cooking a breeze. we enjoyed breakfast on the patio with a lovely view. also, the location was great, just a short walk from the pier, making it easy to explore the area.

    musty smell
    chaotic parking

    The beachfront location was a highlight, allowing easy access to the beach. Rooms had a convenient kitchen setup, but some areas needed better attention to cleanliness. The parking was available but a bit chaotic, and a musty smell lingered in our room. Overall, a decent stay for families.

    three beds
    ocean view
    well-equipped kitchenette
    cramped parking

    The room featured hard-to-find three beds in a single room, which was a primary reason for my selection. The kitchenette was well-equipped with a microwave, coffee maker, and a full fridge, making it easy to prepare meals. The ocean view from the balcony was stunning and added to the overall experience. The pool was a pleasant additional space to relax after work, and the comfortable beds ensured a good night’s rest.

    The parking situation was cramped and chaotic.
