The hotel is a winner because of location - right on the beach- and price. Otherwise, it may need some minor improvements. Parking is a challenge late at night, but there is plenty of spots across the street
We enjoyed our time at Sugar Sands. Staff was friendly and helpful. Grounds we clean, suite was clean. We have stayed at Sugar Sands at least once a year over the past 15 years. Love this property. Best beach in PCB
The properties location was a big decision in our stay. The beach area wasn't crowded. The traffic was light making it easy to get in and out of the parking area. The staff was really friendly and helpful with anything that we needed. This is our favorite place to stay in PCB.
We had a lovely day my daughter and myself. We really enjoyed the of the beach from our room both bedroom as well as living room. We love the accessibility of the hotel on the beach and most of all the beautiful firework show said it all and I really enjoyed myself with my daughter and we will be back.
Old and not well taken place. The personnel was helpful and responded positively, They found a better snd cleaner room for us. The location is outstanding.

Beach view from our balcony was amazing Room, Pool and common areas were clean. Staff was wonderful and helpful. Also liked the location. Property is in the process of renovating rooms and buildings which is much needed and when completed will vastly improve the feel of this property. We very much enjoyed our stay here and would like to return soon.
First time staying here. Room was clean. Pool area was clean. Beautiful view of the beach. Convenient location. They give you a voucher for free parking. Friendly staff. Very pleased with my stay and would definitely come back.
The room was clean and updated, the outside of the hotel is not bad just needs a little updating. Beach access was very nice and beach was not overly crowded like it is when you stay in the east end of front beach road.
Excellent beachfront & ocean views from the private balcony & just steps away from the beautiful sugar white sandy beaches of PCB. Rooms were clean & the beds were very comfortable. A/C was very cold. The kitchen has a full size refrigerator, smooth top range & oven with adequate cooking utensils, dishes, pots,& pans. The pool is heated and has changing colored lighting which I thought was super cool! Pool towels are supplied at the front desk! This area is very quiet and was not crowded in August when we visited. The price was fair. The bath towels were so neatly folded & arranged & stocked up for our stay. I would stay here again!!!
