The Sands perfection

Our stay at the Sands was great. The communication from Waiheke Unlimited was great. The location is perfect, right on the beach and waking distance to cafes and restaurants. The room was comfortable and had extra amenities like a coffee machine! Perfect for a short or long stay.

Our stay at the Sands was great. The communication from Waiheke Unlimited was great. The location is perfect, right on the beach and waking distance to cafes and restaurants. The room was comfortable and had extra amenities like a coffee machine! Perfect for a short or long stay. Our room was only a 1br but we had many family and friends there with 2 and 3 bedrooms which were all lovely. Couldn’t fault it

Disliked: Communication
The property was nice and tidy clean and convenient to restaurants. The only problem was a 5 hour power disruption which meant we were stuck in the dark during the dinner period. No body informed us of the reason and we had to find the power company website to sort. Luckily we had a cold meal in our fridge, but 4pm, to 9 pm on a saturday night was a problem
