My stay at Golden Sands was quite mixed. While the location and access to the beach were fantastic, the room condition was disappointing. The staff was pleasant and accommodating, which I appreciated. However, the musty smell and cleanliness issues really detracted from the experience. Overall, I would recommend checking the room before booking, especially if you have allergies.

I had a lot of mixed feelings about my stay. On the one hand, the beach and outdoor areas were fantastic for my family, especially the kids, as they could play all day. However, the inside left a lot to be desired, especially the uncomfortable beds and cleanliness issues. Unfortunately, the rooms overshadowed the beautiful location and outdoor amenities.

The beachfront location was fantastic for our family trip, providing a clean beach and great outdoor spaces for the kids. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired with uncomfortable beds and signs of pests. If they ever renovate, it could be a lovely spot for families again!

I always look forward to returning to Golden Sands. The stunning views and quiet ambiance make for the perfect escape. The accommodations are clean and comfortable, and it truly feels like a home away from home with the warm atmosphere created by the staff. However, the dining options could use some enhancement as they are limited. Overall, it’s a fantastic place to unwind and connect with nature.
