We had a great stay at Sun and Sand Resort. The proximity of the beach was great. It was just far enough away from town to be quiet, yet close enough to drive into town to walk around. We would stay here again.

When choosing a pet friendly hotel you usually have trade some comfort. Not here! It was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the grounds were beautiful. We enjoyed the pool, lake, and nearby resturaunts and hiking. We will definitely be back!

The renovations and updates at the property were very well thought out. We were super comfortable here. We didn't realize until we arrived how centrally located it was for everything we wanted to do and see as we had never been to this area before. We plan to visit the area again and would stay here for certain.
