The rooms are outdated and not very comfortable.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.

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 Gave us an upgraded room, but rooms are a bit outdated style wise.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.

Great beach bar and walking distance to everything.

This motel was So dirty. DO NOT STAY HERE. there are plenty of other hotels in the area. Me, my husband, and my one year old daughter went for the fourth. Definitely not baby or kid friendly. People partying all night. I should of looked into the reviews better on this place or else I wouldn’t have stayed. Just don’t go here. The worst part about it is that it was so dirty. Floors hasn’t been cleaned in I don’t know how long. I actually had Lysol wipes with me and did a wipe down of the whole place. Yes there was dust and dirt. So they clearly didn’t clean before we came. Only thing good about this place is that it’s on the beach. That is it.

The beach is wonderful. The staff is friendly. The rooms are a bit run down. Waking up to the sound of waves is great. Beachside bar open until late not a treat for a family. Beach view from the room view was lovely!!
Rhode Island is WONDERFUL.
Local restaurants have delicious food.
Long strolls on relaxed beach was a delight.

Check-in was wonderful. The woman at the desk was friendly and knowledgeable. The room was clean, but the accommodations were extremely outdated. There was only 1 hanger in the closet. The floor took a definite shift down the closer you got to the window. The chairs for the high-top table were broken. Water stained drop ceiling tiles at the door.

Very pleased with our stay. Easy to get in and out of. Love that it is right in the beach.

Great view that’s about it. When checking in they have narcan hanging on the wall behind desk only to later find out they house homeless people in the winter that just hang out in the rooms and on the decks and garbage bags at the bottom of the stairs. The rooms have no coffeemaker/ microwave.

This motel is a little less than advertised - it's a barebones motel in a beautiful location with no amenities. I arrived late in the evening and was provided a key and map to my room via a dropbox, but the room was just a bed, a curtain for a closet, no wifi info and the heat took a few hours to kick on so I crawled into bed wearing a hat, mittens and scarf. The deadbolt also didn't fully lock so as a solo female traveler, I placed a chair in front of the door. Wifi instructions weren't given either. The room was fairly clean despite some dust (to be expected in the off season) and some crusty gum next to the bed on the floor. But the view in the AM was stunning and you can't beat the waterside location. However, I cut my 2 night stay down to 1 and when I went to go checkout, the employee at the desk seemed incredibly annoyed that I dared to open the locked office door in the middle of the day and didn't ask why I was cutting my trip short. There were also a lot of people hanging around outside the motel in their pajamas. The motel has its place and is what it is, but I would not suggest this to be the go to place for a solo female traveler in the off season

Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. Off season. Perfect. Quiet. Peaceful and convenient. NO amenities. But, whatever. We weren't there for that. Great view. Private beach. Close to Foxwoods Casino and interstate. We will be back.

We had a great stay at Sandy Shores. Perfect spot on the beach. Room was very clean the only thing was some badly stained ceiling tiles and rusty radiators.There was no iron, or blow dryer. Staff was awesome! They were doing maintenance on rooms so I'm sure those could things will be fixed for next season. Definitely would return
4.0
Staff was extremely nice and assisted with room upgrade.
View was great of the ocean. Surrounding area, particularly around Watch Hill at the light house is beautiful.
Property is somewhat aged and in need of some updating and painting. But is a good value for the property. Many dining establishments close early or even entirely for the season so had to do a bit of looking for dining. Ninety Nine restaurant was a great choice within 3 miles.
