Pictures do not tell a 1000 words

The property is located on a beautiful beach. However, I would not recommend these accommodation for anyone who cares about their health or cleanliness. The rooms are mouldy and the dampness is repugnant. The linens are less than fresh and smell as if they were washed in the nearby river. There is barely any water coming out of the shower as the leaks and the tub is slippery and obviously dirty shower curtain with grime and dirt at the end of the shower curtain.

It was easy to find , The lady's at front were very nice. The beach side of property is wonderful , the included breakfast was great. The entrance to hotel at the back is a little off putting. I was very concerned at first , but other than that the rooms are nice , the property is great. Clean No complaints .

This was a great hotel, great people, and it has a million $ view and a beautiful beach right in front of your bed room window!!! Also the ocean that connects to the river was such a dream and just a few steps away!!! My major reason for giving it better ratings. And very nice and helpful people taking care of the guests. Food was also great. The restaurant in the hotel had good food to offer. It is not a fancy and luxurious hotel and not new. Keep that in mind. I have a very high standard for cleanliness. It was ok. My only complains: I wish they had a better mattress, because of my bad back. But we managed with the foam cushings from the big chair and made it softer. A microwave in the room would be nice. But we managed with the water kettle. And: some trash will be seen outside the hotel area. The hotel keeps the hotel area clean, but a few steps out, not so much. At night all we heard just the waves from the ocean. BUT, waking up every morning to this million dollar view, and seeing the ocean right from our bed, was worth every minute of it. Make me forget my pains and more. We definitely would come back here again. We had a great stay. Thank you.

Spent 4 days there this past March. The view from the balcony of our room was beautiful But room could use more cleanliness Hot water in the bathroom was not hot. The place need a little more tic The pictures online when booking looks amazing but the reality is a little deceiving. If you’re an average traveler needing a place to stay and on budget, this is for you but if you’re looking for something nice well maintained and updated then this is not your style. On the other hand the staff was amazing. From the front counter girl Blu to Miss Janice to Romy to the owner omg they were really nice people We enjoyed interacting with them and everything we ask they did for us. Thank you

If you are looking for affordable, Sand and Tan is the place for you. You got the basics... beach, sun, music and free breakfast! Property appeared to be well managed and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, the area to get to the hotel was very undesirable. I wouldn't feel safe leaving the property especially at night.

Mario, the owner, is great. Threw me a little birthday party which was very loving while I was going through a hard time. The ocean lulls you to sleep. The pier is wonderful to lay on while listening to the waves. It’s also deep enough to jump off of and feel like a kid again. The river is walking distance on the beach and it is very family friendly. The food is top notch. Highly recommend.

It’s a small hotel run almost like a family operation. Everybody had a smile on their face and made every effort to make our stay wonderful. You could hear the waves crashing on the beach through out the day and night, hotel is like 10m from the beach. Breakfast was made from scratch every morning, wonderful. Dinner choices in the evening were also delicious. I give our stay a 10 , exceeded expectations
