The hotel is older and is in need of maintenance. But the room was clean, and everything in the room worked fine. It was very convenient to have the mini-kitchen in the room (refrigerator, oven, microwave, sink).It is direct and easy beachfront access. The pool was good sized and clean.

Great location, decent lodgings

This is the second time my mom and I have stayed at Sugar Sands in the fall. We love the quiet location and the open beach. The hotel is next to a long sand dune so the beach feels very private and secluded. The hotel is older and not well maintained (the walkway to the beach needs repair, there is lots of visible wear and tear on the premise), but the room feels clean, comfortable, and quiet. The staff is friendly and helpful. While I wouldn't give it 5 stars, I would gladly return here for another quiet beach vacation.

Family getaway

This was a nice quite place to stay. The rooms could have been a little bigger and they need to purchase more towels to have on hand. Other than that we have no complaints. The staff was very nice. Very easy check in and out. Nice beach location with private access and nice pool. Close to everything. Would stay again.

Stunning view

We had such a wonderful time staying at this rental. It is a little older, but for us, we didn’t mind at all when we considered the location on the beach in a quieter part of town, the incredible view and heated pool. We woke up to the sound of the ocean and just enjoyed every minute of our stay. Loved having a kitchen too. Would come back again!

Horrible stay

The sugar sands motel is old and out dated. We had no room service even after asking several times. We had to use the pool towels and change the dirty sheets on the beds ourselves after going to the office to get them. The ice and coke machine did not work. The staff was rude and did not help with anything and did not care to either.

Hotel not a condo

VRBO somehow switched our reservation to reservations@roompick.com and did not disclose this. Dealing with Roompick was a bit nebulous. Also, the sign outside states the facility is a hotel along with a vacancy sign, which indicates it is a hotel. The filters we set were condos, beach front, etc., and we were disappointed with the facility as a whole. The building on the left side of the office definitely needs upgrading, painting, etc., definitely dated.

The property is not well kept. The parking area was too small. Large vehicles parked adjacent to each other and we could not get into the parking area. The room was not clean. The bath tub was disgusting. The toilet was stopped up and maintenance had to come with a snake to unstop it. The TV did not work. Maintenance had to fix it. The balcony was nasty. The AC was so loud, it was difficult to sleep. We would not recommend this place to anyone. If we had been able to find a place to stay we would have moved that first night. we did leave a day early.

The best thing about this property is its location. It is directly on the beach, and the rear room views of the water are beautiful. The room itself was fairly clean and the price was lower than many nearby properties, which made it attractive at first glance.Unfortunately, the overall experience fell short of expectations. The exterior and interior lacked the kind of care and aesthetics I look for in a beach stay: peeling paint, patchwork repairs, and dated finishes made the space feel neglected. While the room was tidy, the stained comforter/duvet was hard to overlook.On top of that, the fees were disappointing. The hotel charges a resort fee, yet you still have to pay an additional 25 per day for beach chairs and another 25 for an umbrella. There were also no pool towels provided. Parking was limited, adding to the frustrations.In the end, the location could not make up for the lack of upkeep and amenities. We chose not to stay overnight. With some investment in maintenance and guest comfort, this property could be a great value, but as it stands, it felt like “lipstick on a pig.”
