Sands Beach Club

The room was fine and the staff of the Sands Beach Club were fine. The problem with the checkin process is after checking in they send you to a desk outside the office to get a parking pass. Picking up my pass I’m told I have to attend a Timeshare presentation the next day. Turns out that Capital Timeshare was handing out the parking passes and trying to strong arm people to attend. I told them I don’t have time for that and have zero interest in a Timeshare. Two associates kept telling me I had to attend one on Sunday or Monday. The associate showed me a email voucher I should have received and I had to attend. I never received a voucher! I booked via Hotels.com and no where on my reservation did it say anything about a voucher or a timeshare. Simply 3 nights at such & such rate. After 30 minutes of a stressful conversation with these two associates they said I could go to my room. I had prepaid or I would have walked away. I was not the only one having issues, there were several. One woman was having a heated conversation with the associate and the associate finally said to her, there are only two things in life that you have to do, eat and die. Such unprofessionalism. Even tho this may not be the Sands Beach Club employee, it is a direct reflection of the Sands Beach Club for allowing this type of high sales pressure. We ended up leaving a day early. I would not recommend this property to anyone. And it’s a shame as it’s in a nice location.

Great place to stay for a couples vacation! The room was great with an awesome bed. Kitchen was very clean with all the utensils needed. Frying pans were scratched to pieces, but was quickly brought a new one after the staff had asked how were the accommodations. Minor cosmetic fixes are needed, but nothing problematic (ex. Patio door handle was bent and hinge on one of the kitchen cabinets was loose. The outdoor Weber gas grills definitely need a thorough deep cleaning as there was so much debris in the well you couldn't get the grill hot enough to sear meat. They do have grate cleaners, but took a while to get the grates hot enough to get the grates cleaned.

Great location had a really good time. Good rooms just very inconvenient. Having to switch in the middle of our stay wasn’t notified before hand.

Loved all the space... it was like a home away from home!!!

Loved how secluded it was, but still in walking distance from shops and the beach! The only thing I would change about the trip was the check-in… it would have been nice to get my parking tag & go relax after driving for hours. However, we had to get our parking tag from Heather, who tried to sell a timeshare and wasn’t pleasant to speak to.
