Great Beachside Hotel!
Our family had a fantastic time at the Drifting Sands Hotel. It was right on the beach and our room had a wonderful view of the ocean. Most importantly, they made an accommodation for my parents to move to a ground floor room as they were originally on the second floor in a building without an elevator. The staff was pleasant and helpful throughout our stay.

Our building had no WiFi service & no effort was made to fix this problem. We had no one come to our room to empty garbage or provide clean towels.

The property is clean but very run down. Tried to reach the front desk with a question and they did not answer the phone after over 20 attempts.

4/10 Fair

We arrived early for check in and the front desk staff was very kind and quickly got us checked in with beach passes and our room keys. We stayed in the same building the lobby is attached to. It’s important to note that the photos shown of the rooms online do not match what the rooms look like in person. They are very outdated and in desperate need of some TLC. When we got to our room we immediately noticed the poorly made beds and sand everywhere on the floors, especially in the bathroom. We chose to make do with this and did not complain. The balcony was the nicest part of the room and I enjoyed the view we had. You’re only allowed to park one car on the property per room, so if you have more than one vehicle you will need to park in the road - they don’t sell additional parking passes. Be very careful about where you park as someone backed right into our truck during the early hours of Saturday morning while attempting to parallel park. This is a great location just steps from the beach and they do have beach chairs for guests to use that were in good condition. Upon checkout we returned our beach badges/room keys in person to the front desk staff and headed home. Unfortunately, since then this hotel has randomly attempted on multiple occasions to charge my card. Nobody at the hotel could explain to me why this was happening. I finally had my credit card company block them. It’s a shame because I do think this place has potential, however I am left very disappointed.
