Solo traveler falls in love with Sands!
Literally one of the best hotel stays I’ve ever had. The PM bartenders were fabulous, the spa attendant was amazing, and check-in and concierge were friendly and process was seamless. The room was immaculate and comfortable. Whoever designed the spaces is on top of it. Beautiful eye for detail, looking forward to making this a yearly girls trip.

The building, rooms and staff are amazing. Love the slow jazz playing in the the upon arrival. Beautiful tile and design through out. The pink cabana has excellent food and drinks. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We have already spent 2 trips there each time was just so relaxing. The adhere to the adults only theme at the property which is very much appreciated. My only complaint would be I am now addicted to the hotel and level of service. The bar has been raised. Thank you Sands!

I have been coming to this resort ever since it opened. It is a yearly trip that my wife and I look forward to. We used to celebrate our anniversary here but now we celebrate my wife’s cancer/tumor removal surgery date. Every year is always better than the last with the exception of this year. Firstly, my wife and I always get the same room that we love- the one with the couch and the tub. I was told that we were getting an upgrade when we checked in and we were stoked! Well, we ended up with one of the smallest rooms. No tub, no couch, small shower, etc. It felt so odd to be excited only to be let down. So was it an upgrade? I think not. We were able to switch rooms but we had to pay extra. When we booked we specifically chose the one we always get I was confused. Then I was given an explanation of how the person who was originally going into the room we paid extra for would receive an upgrade since we were taking their room. It felt icky. The service at the restaurant was slow. The pool wasn’t as clean as usual. The AC in our room didn’t budge below 78. It was rough. The last few times we were there the wonderful workers surprised us with a card, some dates, and a few times we were given a bottle of bubbly. The service was top notch. The energy was immaculate. Total bummer. Hoping next year will be better. We hope next year will make up for this go around.
