At Tahoe Sands Resort, travelers praise the lakeside setting with a private beach, value-friendly condos with kitchens, and warm, helpful staff, while noting dated units, occasional maintenance issues, and variable cleanliness across different rooms.
The waterfront location near Kings Beach, Safeway, restaurants, and ski areas is a consistent highlight, with amenities like a pool, hot tub, sauna, BBQs, a playground, and beach equipment rentals. Rooms range from spacious condos to smaller studios; some are across the highway with occasional noise, and several guests mention heating or A/C limitations and uncomfortable Murphy or sofa beds. Limited office hours and after-hours responsiveness drew a few complaints. Expect great views and value, but an older property with uneven upkeep.

This was our first time here and had an absolute amazing experience, from a private beach, pool and hot tub and sauna. Clean outside grills for us to use. Our cabin was a perfect size for us four. Working stove decent size fridge. It was near a national park and well as a mini golf. I definitely recommend and expect to come back.

Perfect for a one night stay if you are not expecting much beyond a bed and bathroom.. Great location, but not a lot of amenities for a "resort". Don't expect much, but great for our needs.

From the moment we arrived, Sam made us feel so welcome. He greeted us with a big smile and such warm energy, which set the tone for a great stay. The hotel itself is in an amazing location, right on the lake and close to Safeway and plenty of good restaurants. The rooms are a bit dated but have a comfy, homey feel, which we really appreciated. The hot tub wasn’t huge but was a great amenity along with the sauna, perfect for unwinding after a long day. For the price, this place is absolutely worth it. We’d definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and affordable stay.

The condo was nice and clean and well stocked with pots, pans and everything one may need to cook a meal. The staff was friendly, the check-in and check-out were painless. The property has a nice private beach, a volleyball court, a playground and a pool with sauna. We would love to come again in summer.

The area around the property was very nice, a private beach, volleyball, pool, hot tub sauna, very close to Safeway and restaurants however the room had sooo much dust. THE SOFA and In between the closet had cobwebs that made me wonder if they even changed our bedsheets.. I requested new everything for my peace of mind. The backup sheets had a few insects inside.The room had a particular smell that I had to buy febreeze to make it better. I would rate it a 5 but the cleaning needs to IMPROVE A LOT AND NOT JUST DO a superficial clean. THE ROOM I STAYED AT NEEDS A DEEP DEEP CLEAN. Also the carpets were black! I couldn't stop sneezing whenever I was in the room.

Room was dirty and small. Murphy’s double bed when pulled out, the Queen sofa bed cannot pull out, as there is no space.. So, sofa bed was not useable. The rug was filthy and probably had never been cleaned…maybe, it was vacuumed was time to time. And, in Kiky the room was hot and stuffy. The box fan proceeds did help.

There was dirt dust and someone’s chapstick under the pull out bed . The hotel is just older and could use some updates. Everything else was satisfactory. We would stay again it was a quick fun trip with our granddaughter and she had a blast. We have been coming there for years the pool furniture was dirty tables etc just maybe need a good scrubbing.

Would not stay here again. Room had a smell to it went to Safeway to buy a febreeze. My biggest complaint are the mattress, old spring mattress that are dented in the middle did not sleep entire night. Atleast upgrade the mattress, everything inside this place is original from the 1945. The only good thing about this place is the beach access.

We had a mouse running around our room. While I realize that "wildlife" is common in the mountains, a rodent sprinting from the bedroom into the kitchen (and back) was pretty shocking to me and my young children. The office was closed at the time (they are currently only open from 9-5:30), and we were already starting to pack up, so we just left as quickly as we could. I reported the mouse to the man who was working in front of the office and offered to take our keys, but surprisingly he acted like it wasn't a big deal and just nodded. I also called to leave a message for the office but they don't have voicemail. I then sent an email about the issue that no one responded to. I would have expected that some action would be taken to remove the mouse so that the next guests didn't experience the same distress, so the lack of acknowledgement made the entire situation even more upsetting. We had a relatively nice stay otherwise, so this was an unfortunate end to our trip.

The guy at checkin gave us great advice for happy hour on Tuesday, Spindleshanks. And at checkout we got a little extra time to relax. We will definitely be back!

I would not recommend this place again. At first glance it seems clean. But there were spiderwebs all over the windows and the first night I got there the heater was up to 80, it wouldn’t shut off. there was no one available at the front desk on the weekend. Only. M-F 9-5. I had to call the after hours emergency service, they came to shut it off. It was so loud! I stayed in the room on the corner next to the street and the traffic sound was horrible. The first morning the alarm went off at 5 AM second morning there was jackhammering outside at 7 AM. Also, they started leaf blowing at 8 AM. It was so noisy. I went to the front desk and asked if they could give me a call when the manager returned. They never called. It’s a very noisy place and sort of run down. I wouldn’t stay there again.

Perfect stay for the slopes in north shore! My favorite thing about Tahoe Sands Resort was the extra-communicative staff (Linda and Sophie - great job!). The resort's staff communicated bad weather updates, check-in processes, amenities and more all via text, and that made me so comfortable driving into a snow storm and knowing I'd have a warm place to rest my head and relax after the slopes. We stayed in a two-bedroom condo, and I cannot recommend that room type enough. It was cozy, clean and had great views of the grounds/lake (two balconies). The kitchen was stocked with all of the comforts of home, the showers were hot and it was so nice to have space to chill in the living room and also be able to watch tv in bed. We loved this place and will be back.

Extremely disappointed that we were assigned a room across the busy Highway. Nowhere in the reservation process did it indicate that the room may not be facing the lake. The only reason we booked this place was for the lake view outside our door. (False advertising! Don't let the pictures fool you.) The small, dark studio was the worst place we've ever stayed. It felt unclean (we never took off our sandals) and it was awkward having neighbors so close. Because there is no air conditioning, we had to leave our door open and so did our neighbors with whom we shared a small porch (think townhouse but two small rooms next to each other). The sagging mattress on the Murphy bed also made for a horrible night's sleep. We probably will never stay here again because of the poor accommodations, but we did enjoy the private beach which was a breath of fresh air after the zoo-like experience at Kings Beach. We also rented kayaks on the property which we really enjoyed and appreciated the convenience. The resort also had a snack and wine event which was nice. These amenities boosted the rating, otherwise we would have rated our experience with a one star.

We probably will never stay here again because of the poor accommodations, but we did enjoy the private beach which was a breath of fresh air after the zoo-like experience at Kings Beach. We also rented kayaks on the property which we really enjoyed and appreciated the convenience. The resort also had a snack and wine event which was nice. These amenities boosted the rating, otherwise we would have rated our experience with a one star.

Hottub and sauna after a day on the slopes was great. Beautiful view of lake from room. Close to safeway for groceries and a handful of great restaurants. Good location 👌

Walls were paper thin. Facilities are older. The highway splits the property so had to walk across the highway to get to the beach.

Even though he would a cottage was a little older and outdated it was very comfortable and we were so relaxed. This is just what we needed a weekend to get away something quite close to good diners and breakfast spots. Very close to Kings Beach. It was an amazing place. Can’t wait to go back and take my grandkids. The kitchens are great. Plus the barbecue area outside was amazing. We use those to barbecue Saturday dinner. everyone there was very nice.

Perfect stay for the slopes in north shore! My favorite thing about Tahoe Sands Resort was the extra-communicative staff (Linda and Sophie - great job!). The resort's staff communicated bad weather updates, check-in processes, amenities and more all via text, and that made me so comfortable driving into a snow storm and knowing I'd have a warm place to rest my head and relax after the slopes. We stayed in a two-bedroom condo, and I cannot recommend that room type enough. It was cozy, clean and had great views of the grounds/lake (two balconies). The kitchen was stocked with all of the comforts of home, the showers were hot and it was so nice to have space to chill in the living room and also be able to watch tv in bed. We loved this place and will be back.

We were in the end room, top floor, by the lake. Very quiet with fantastic views of the lake. The decor is a little outdated, and the heating was poor. It was freezing

Extremely disappointed that we were assigned a room across the busy Highway. Nowhere in the reservation process did it indicate that the room may not be facing the lake. The only reason we booked this place was for the lake view outside our door. (False advertising! Don't let the pictures fool you.) The small, dark studio was the worst place we've ever stayed. It felt unclean (we never took off our sandals) and it was awkward having neighbors so close. Because there is no air conditioning, we had to leave our door open and so did our neighbors with whom we shared a small porch (think townhouse but two small rooms next to each other). The sagging mattress on the Murphy bed also made for a horrible night's sleep. We probably will never stay here again because of the poor accommodations, but we did enjoy the private beach which was a breath of fresh air after the zoo-like experience at Kings Beach. We also rented kayaks on the property which we really enjoyed and appreciated the convenience. The resort also had a snack and wine event which was nice.

We stayed at Tahoe Sands for a quick mid-week couples getaway. We stayed in one of the cottages. I couldn’t be happier with the location, amenities, views, hot tub and especially customer service. The guy at checkin gave us great advice for happy hour on Tuesday, Spindleshanks. And at checkout we got a little extra time to relax. We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing stay here! Its summer in Tahoe you all, so finding a good hotel for a reasonable price is a rarity! The customer service was amazing from check in to check out! Josie the manager was so professional, effective and friendly! Same for the rest of the staff! The location is SUPREME!!Right on a clean beautiful beach of the lake. They have enjoyable planned activities for all ages including a complimentary Wine social on Saturday! I stayed in 2 different rooms, checked out but then decided to book another night! My first 2 rooms were studios with a little kitchenette, fridge, stove top, microwave etc. The rooms on the lakeside have a bit more wear and tear and could benefit from a little upgrade but the location bus go great, it makes up for it! Feet from the beach and lake! The studio across the street was so nice! Send recently updated! It’s small but could still sleep 4 I think. I was really impressed about the use of the space! Cozy and comfortable! I will definitely stay here again!

The spot is right on the lake with a beautiful sunrise over the Sierra Nevada! Staff is very communicative and helpful. Two drawbacks: the breakfast bites being offered at 9:30am and the office was closed at 8am, when many will checkout as they leave to ski at area resorts.

From the moment we arrived, Sam made us feel so welcome. He greeted us with a big smile and such warm energy, which set the tone for a great stay. The hotel itself is in an amazing location, right on the lake and close to Safeway and plenty of good restaurants. The rooms are a bit dated but have a comfy, homey feel, which we really appreciated. The hot tub wasn’t huge but was a great amenity along with the sauna, perfect for unwinding after a long day. For the price, this place is absolutely worth it. We’d definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and affordable stay.

Cozy condo with great parking right in front of our door. Power went out in the bedroom and part of main area. Microwave didn't work. Communication was great, and maintenance guy came after hours to troubleshoot power issue.

The property was a great location, very close to the Northstar Gondola. The staff is very responsive and available for help or questions. The hot tub and sauna are a very nice amenity after a ski day. Parking was really convenient and the grounds were plowed. They give you dish soap, a sponge, and a few dishwasher soap packets as well as some tea, coffee, and sugar which is a nice touch. We stayed in a room next to the stairs, so it was quite noisy in the mornings and afternoon. The gas fireplace not functional so we were quite cold. But the staff brought space heaters to accommodate. Having a kitchen was quite convenient, though I'd recommend bringing your own cutlery as the knives aren't sharp and serrated. I'd put cleanliness at about an 8 as the floors still had hair and crumbs from whomever had stayed prior, and we found several bugs in the room and one in the bed sheets. Overall, i'd stay it was a convenient stay. 7/10
