The Sand Dunes is a great place to stay with the family. It is a neat and tidy place. The kids love the pool and it is convenient to the beach and the pier. We will definitely stay there on our next beach trip.

David, who was there to help me at check in, was super sweet! I didn't like that i found someone's hairs in the bed when i pulled the covers back and he changed my room... upgrading it at no additional charges. The second room was wonderful! Then, at 2am, i was awakened by a piercing alarm that turned out to be the smoke detector. It eventually stopped and i dozed back off to sleep. But it went off again 10 minutes later and i texted the front office. It eventually stopped again and i didn't have any more sleep interruptions. I would revisit.
