We stayed in the building on the beachside. The pool was great and having the private beach access was nice too. The main hotel has a couple of dining options and they also provide a shuttle bus service to travel around point pleasant and the boardwalk was within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again.

This property was in an excellent location right on the southern end of the Point Pleasant Boardwalk with beach access.Therefore, it was a quieter part of town. The hotel had a café that was open for breakfast and lunch and the Tradewinds restaurant served excellent meals for dinner. The staff was excellent and accommodating. We plan on going back next year.

We waited for our room to be “ready” for our stay. We got texted to check in and when we got to the room it clearly hadn’t been cleaned. Clothes hanging in the closet, items in the fridge, beds not made. The desk manager was furious at the staff and sent a crew of 5 to correct the mistake. Two of the previous restaurants were no longer open. The public bathrooms were not being cleaned throughout the day. The pools and pool areas were clean. The staff were friendly. We might go back….going to look at other places though.

There are plenty of great places to stay in Point Pleasant in the summer. But nothing is quite like the White Sands. I've been staying there all my life. The proximity to the boardwalk, the amenities of the hotel, the two pools, access to beach. You can save a few dollars staying elsewhere. But it's the total package and completely worth every dollar. And the restaurant Tradewinds is the hidden gem of it all. Highly recommend.

Perfect location for a quick getaway. The White Sands is located right on the beach, with two amazing outdoor pools, as well as an indoor pool and spa. Delicious iced coffee was served by an amazingly friendly, hardworking employee at the Sandbar. The place being on site is so convenient for breakfast and lunch. A very easy walk to the boardwalk made my 12 year old twin boys very happy. We will definitely be back!

I booked this hotel last minute and what a great find/deal. Our room was in the hotel on the 3rd floor with an ocean view. It was very clean, nice size with a balcony and overall was really enjoyable. We ate in the restaurant, Tradewinds and have to say, the food was good and not too pricey. Some items, such as a Tomahawk steak was a bit high, but we don't order those type of meals anyway, so not problem. I had the scallops and were delish! The property has 3 pools (2 outside & 1 indoor with a hot tub). Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to pop in the pools but were clean, nice and beachfront. Your room key gives you access to all the pools and beach, where most beaches in NJ charge you. We did not eat at the cafe for breakfast but looked nice and beachfront as well. I recommend this property but do your homework as we got a great rate ($260) a night versus $600-$800 on their initial site, which is just crazy, but it's summer, so you pay to be by the beach.

We had a view of the parking lot but if you looked right, there was the ocean. It was like having ocean front without paying for it. The room was ok. But the convenience to the beach and boardwalk was great. You give a little you get a lot. Also the lounge and bourbon bar and restaurant were very good.
