Waste of money $630 for 2 nights. Was very unhappy couldn't use spa bath dirty filter's causing brown scum in water, mould growing in both showers, complain to management and was brushed off, ignored. No sorry, no cleaner offered, but they were willing to inspect at chechout. What a joke

Have just had 4 amazing weeks at the Sands Resort Yamba. This is our second time there and all being well we will back again next year. The hosts Seb and Rae were fantastic very friendly and couldn't do enough for you, made you feel very welcome. The resort itself is very well maintained, gardens and pools are imaculate, just...

We had a week in Apartment 20 at The Sands Resort during school holidays. The apartment needs to be thoroughly cleaned for incoming guests and checked for problems. I had to clean all the windows to be able to see out. Dryer needs replacing - didn't work. Dishwasher and some crockery and cutlery still had food scraps dried on. We... More 

We attended the Sands for a sporting function in Yamba. We booked 4 rooms on the ground floor facing the ocean. All 4 rooms were well furnished, clean and quiet. We had a 3 bedroom apartment that had 2 rooms with 2 singles and 1 room with a queen. The kitchens are well equipped and the ground floor rooms have... More 

I visit Yamba regularly and this was the first time I stayed at the Sands. We will be back. The apartment was a good size, very clean and in a good position for what we where there for (surfing and fishing). When booking, the staff were very helpful, ensured I would get a room with reverse cycle aircon (at my... More 

We spent 5 nights at the Sands and I wasn't in any way disappointed. Fabulous location right across the road from Pippi's Beach, probably a 15 -20 min walk into town or the other beaches nearby. The apartments was very well equipped, we stayed in a 3 bedroom one which faced the beach, was on the top floor and had... More 

Always that bit apprehensive when I book accommodation in a location that I haven't been to before. Arrived in darkness after the office had closed but absolutely no dramas locating the key safe and our apartment. We stayed in a single floor apartment that was extremely clean and in very good order. We woke to a beautiful view across the... More 

We have just returned from a four night stay in The Sands and really wish we had stayed for much longer. The reception people were very friendly and helpful and directed us to our unit (No.18),which once we had opened the door, we were more than pleased with. It was clean, bright and very welcoming and we had a lovely... More 

1. Right close to the nearby Pippi Beach. You can easily take relaxing walks there. 2. Good value for money. 3. Sea breeze coming in even at night when you sleep, but the sound of the waves is minimal. We stayed for 1 whole week and cooked quite often. Even though we know that it's not serviced daily, we needed... More
