- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.

Payment
Paid at the time of booking, not at the desk. The property may still take a card at check-in for incidentals — that is their own policy and separate from what you pay us.

Guests are required to show a photo ID and credit card upon check-in. Please note that all Special Requests are subject to availability and additional charges may apply. A deposit may be required at the property.
Questions about The Sands Beach Resort
What time is check-in and check-out at The Sands Beach Resort?
Check-in is from 02:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Is there parking at The Sands Beach Resort?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does The Sands Beach Resort 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 The Sands Beach Resort have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Sands Beach Resort 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.
Can I check in late at The Sands Beach Resort?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 02:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book The Sands Beach Resort?
Put your dates in above and book online. Rates are live from the property and include taxes and fees we can read; anything we can't price, we say so rather than guess.
