The room and location was beautiful. Housekeeping and staff were friendly and attentive. Going in the off season definitely has its advantages and would love to stay here again. The only drawback was not having a microwave in the room. That would have made it a five star stay.

Although the property is lacking some "hotel features" the price, location, and staff made it totally worth it. Right on a private beach. We went off season and got a huge apt.

Pleasant check in with very nice helpful staff. This appears to be an older building but the room was very up to date with a really nice spacious walk in shower. All rooms face the ocean which is less than 100 yards away. There is a bar on the beach, a place to sit and relax and watch the waves.

The office manager/housekeeper/front desk lady (I can’t remember her name sorry)was so sweet and made sure I always saw the best sunset each night when I was there. The outside bar was an added surprise I didn’t think I would get to enjoy. Beautiful oceanfront room -exactly what I was hoping it would be!

We’re a couple who stayed just after Labor Day. Staff was friendly and the place was in good shape for having just been through a busy summer.
Exterior just after sunrise.
Beach from in front of Sandy Shore at sunrise.
Dinner sunset from a restaurant just up the street (food was good)
