I recently had the "pleasure" of staying at the Sandy Shore Motel... it was NOT nice at all. First, the rooms are dumpy and smell like cigarettes. I found about 15 nails and screws in the parking lot around my car but the absolute worst part of this whole experience is the "owner" of the property. I guess he's newly... More

So it’s two years since my last stay at Sandy Shores and now I am back for the (2012) Easter weekend. I said last time that I occasionally get the urge to hang out at the beach in a simple little shack. Sandy Shores again filled the bill. They’ve redecorated (and are still at it). Our room had a newish... More

Stayed here with a group of friends over the last weekend in March. We were attending an event at the Andrea Hotel that wasn't opened for rooms yet. I've seen this place a million times, but never have been in it. Location is unbelieveably great, directly on the beach. Sound of waves crashing all night is unbeatable. However, it's pretty... More

Thank you for your most recent input regarding our property and your stay with us. I have taken the time to closely review your concerns. During your time of travel we are consider to be in off season, this does not justify the issues with the cleanliness of the rooms and these issues should have been brought to the attention... More

Pros: Love this hotel, nice private beach. Each room has a view of the ocean. Beds are comfy, not great but sleepable. Rooms are clean, staff is nice! Cons: No elevator and 3 floors, isn't so much fun with luggage. Efficiency rooms could have a smidge more dishes, plates, pots, pans and serving bowls. All around great place to stay... More

My sister and i are "seniors" who stayed for a 3 day weekend and found the accommodations to be just what we were looking for -- the room was clean, everything in working order. There were families with young children, 5 young girls (20's) staying next door to us and 2 young men on the other side. There was never... More

We had smokers that took over the deck in front of our room so we couldn't open our door and sit on the deck outside our room. If you want to be stuck in a little room without having to open your door to enjoy the ocean view or smell the sea air go ahead and stay here I will... More
