Sandy Lane is a luxurious retreat. Thanks to its warm and professional service. The atmosphere is elegant. Spacious, comfortable rooms and commend the hotel's cleanliness. Amenities such as the spa, pool, and dining. Despite the high price. The exceptional experience justifies the cost.

Sandy Lane is a true rendition of perfection. The service is top notch and every employee is friendly, kind, and very willing to help in ANY way. They even have a manager's champagne get together weekly for the guests to make sure everyone is having a great time! The management is keenly tuned into what the guests want and need and are diligently working each day to make sure that happens. The beach is absolutely gorgeous and clean; pictures do not do it justice. The beach staff is very attentive and even come around with "special smoothie" samples during the day. One of the outstanding offerings of Sandy Lane is the FOOD! It is exceptional and delicious. The varied buffet dinners are on the highest level and eating outside right on the ocean is unparalleled. Another premier offering at Sandy Lane is the GOLF. The two 18 hole courses are spectacular and it is a privilege to play The Green Monkey. The 9 hole walking course is like a nature tour (you can ride, if you wish). The accommodations are immaculate and gorgeous. Housekeeping is truly like ninjas and they come in and restore your room to perfection in just a jiffy! Even before your trip is complete, you are counting down the days until you can come back!!

This was our 3rd stay and another great experience at Sandy Lane. From arrival to departure, everything was seamless. Dining is good and breakfast and Sunday Brunch have a huge variety of food options to choose from. Service on the beach was good although there seemed to be a problem with allocation of beach beds for the duration of our stay. That said, the issue was resolved promptly each day. All staff were attentive and the service levels consistently high. We celebrated our wedding anniversary and were delighted to receive a number of surprises throughout the day including a beautiful cake and champagne. Thank you to everyone for making our visit so special.

Went for afternoon tea. We got a large selection of sandwiches (salmon, egg salad, etc), a set of one-bite pieces, and a dessert selection. Everything tasted fantastic. They didn't even scoff and the people in our group who had coffee instead of tea. All in all it was a relaxed and very enjoyable afternoon and walk at the beach. No need for dinner after.
