The Sandy Shore Motel was old, but clean and maintained. We checked out, though, after three hours and went to a place up the beach because there is an outside bar at the motel and they were playing music loud enough that it muted the sound of the waves. We didn't want to hear Taylor Swift (no offense Tay Tay - we love you) we wanted to hear the ocean. And we couldn't have our window open without hearing the bar music - which - we were told - stayed open to 1 am. Also, the motel is horseshoe shaped and our room faced a bank of port-a-potties that were there for bar patrons. So, if you want to day drink and don't mind looking at port-a-potties - this place will suit you. If you want to hear the ocean and have kids who need to go to bed early, you may want to look elsewhere.

Very nice place

Staff was friendly and customer service oriented. The room I booked I was not given because cable was not available in that room. I was given another room with an ocean view from my front window. It was a side window view. She said that was considered an upgrade. I don’t believe so, but whatever.

This is not a luxury hotel. But it doesn't need to be. If you want a reasonably priced, comfortable, spacious accommodation with the Atlantic Ocean right outside your bedroom window gently lulling you to sleep every night, there really isn't a better place. Friendly, gregarious staff is always a pleasure as well.

Nice

Hotel is located right on a beautiful beach. The hotel was undergoing major renovations and was noisy. There should be a warning about construction. We were placed on the 3rd floor with no elevator.

The location is excellent, the apartment was very nice and well kept, I only hated that it reeked like cigarettes, I opened the windows but it seems people next door smoke indoors. Sleeping was rough with that awful smell.

The room provided had no amenities. The heat only worked on one side, and the bathroom lights were not working. The bed was of low quality. It is not worth the price of 175.00 per night with one widow ocean view. Another guest attempted to get a cigarette as we went to the room. No coffee maker, micro, or fridge. Did not stay but was refunded for one night of the two booked.

Nice and quiet on the beach

On the beach, close to food and shops. Can hear through walls, best to be on top floor if possible

Staff was great!!!

Motel was fine. Would have liked a coffee maker in our room

The rooms are outdated and not very comfortable. The location can't be beat. The beachbar with music is a great touch. We went in October so the scene was fairly mellow. In the future, I would visit the bar on the beach, but stay somewhere else.

It was fine for a one night stay. The rate was reasonable.

Right on the beach! Awesome!

We stay here yearly. We love the location and the beach bar. The rooms are comfortable, the views are great, the staff is wonderful!

Property is literally bordering the beach with waves breaking 20 yards away.

Such a beautiful location. We will be back for sure

This motel is right on the beach. It was wonderful! Restaurant right across the street. Short walk to misquimicut beach.☺

Great place !!! Love the bar and sitting area outside

Great location! Great parking right at the beach! Very friendly customer service

Stefanie and all staff are amazing Always a great time

The best part about this property is its location. You can’t beat being right on the beach!

Pleasant two night stay. Front desk very accommodating. Gave us an upgraded room, but rooms are a bit outdated style wise. Many places to walk to and try for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks. Nice beach and outdoor bar.

People in the office were friendly and helpful. Room was large, fairly clean, could use a full/deep cleaning. The bar played loud "pop" music from 11 AM until 1 AM, people were smoking and drinking everywhere outside, including the crowded beach which gave it a "Frat house" atmosphere. The beach was crowded on Friday and VERY crowded on Saturday. We learned the hotel has a parking lot across the street where they charge cars to park and allow people beach access. In our opinion, there's not enough room to allow people not staying at the hotel beach access and the adjacent beaches enforce the "private beach" signs so people can't set up nearby. There was very little if any outside lighting, two flights of unfamiliar stairs in the dark is not safe - it's dangerous. There were a couple of restaurants within walking distance, one REQUIRED reservations. The ocean is quite rough with a strong undertow and large waves - fine with us but difficult for small children, although there was a lifeguard.

Parking was very tight. Beach bar expectations a bit much, and inability to sleep because of partying on both side of the motel. I would recommend not staying if you’re bringing your family. If partying is what you’re looking for you would enjoy. Had some great things about it, some not so much….

Excellent location, great bar on beach, friendly staff, mediocre room, bad housekeeping. Decor was old, bed creaked loudly with slightest movement, coffee stains on table, Sandy floors. Too bad, could be an awesome place

We have stayed there for two years now. This year was a bit of a disappointment. Our door was left wide open two days in a row after housecleaning was in there. When reported we were told that their locks were being replaced in august and that they were sorry. After the first time this was no longer acceptable. We had all of our belongings in there as well as our children’s belongings. The second time we went down to inform the office there was no real explanation and we received the same explanation as the locks were being replaced in august.

The price of the room was overpriced,the a/c was not put in window correctly, one of the chairs was broken ,only one table and it was dirty table near bedsides,asked for change of room and did not try to accomadate us,everything about this was a terrible vacation. only thing taht was good here was restaurant service across the street and our waiter went above and beyond very satisfied at the restaurant,but the service where we stayed was lousy,really lousy.

A little pricey for just a room and not much amenities. However the location right on the beach was a big plus. Arrived early and able to park and use the beach before getting our room in the late afternoon. Outdoor deck facing the ocean was really nice.

The beach and tiki bar made our trip enjoyable, convenient and safe. Ty

The place is dated, no frills, but clean. The location right on the beach was perfect. It is suppose to be a private beach, but they let people who pay to park in their lot ($80.00 per car), in so it can get VERY crowed and people are sitting on top of you. The restaurants don't have enough help so you can't get in without a very long wait or not at all. One place stopped seating people at 6:00 because the kitchen was swamped.
