Stayed at The Beach House at Drifting Sands for 2 nights. The room was nice, beds and pillows were comfortable. The Kitchenette was also good although we didnā€™t have to use anything. However the drapes were awful. Panels were short and not enough leaving wide gaps allowing light to come through and having no privacy. Getting to the beach was easy and quick. Great location.

The room was clean and comfortable. The mini fridge, microwave and table with 2 chairs are good accommodations to have a casual meal or snack and avoid the need to eat out. The staff was friendly and helpful. I received an upgrade to my room on the day I checked in since it was off season and there were open rooms. Definitely recommend this place for a relaxing stay so close to the beach.

Great place to stay

This was a wonderful resort to stay in. Easy access to the beach and the room was great. The water pressure was surprisingly good which really helped get the sand and sunscreen off. There is so much in walking distance too which helped a ton.

Staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious, big enough for the family to enjoy without being on top of each other. The walk to the beach was probably my favorite part, it made our weekend so much simpler!

The room was very dated and therefore didnā€™t appear cleanā€¦but it was. The view out of the dirty window was another buildingā€˜s window. One had to walk over to the main hotel to get bath towels. There is no phone to connect to the hotel lobby. Unusual inconveniences.

Our room was not ready at check in time. They had us in the building across the street from the main hotel - the view was a parking lot. First room was filthy sand all over the floor/ broken lamp/bathroom had hair and hair ties from the last guest/ really unacceptable. They moved us to another room that was a bit cleaner. Staff was nice enough but no manager on site. Evie and Lowell were awesome and tried their best. Management should do better.
