My Team went through on a business trip and they said they had never been at a place that was so terrible, the beds were bad, shower was mouldy. Almost as though the place is not being looked after. Please look into this…

Questions about Blue Sands Guest House

What time is check-in and check-out at Blue Sands Guest House?

Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Blue Sands Guest House allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Blue Sands Guest House?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Blue Sands Guest House have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Does Blue Sands Guest House have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Blue Sands Guest House have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Blue Sands Guest House?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
