Delicious Culinary Experience

During my stay, I dined at Bongos a few nights, and the food was amazing every time. The flavors were authentic, and I found myself looking forward to each meal. Chef Tyrone and his crew truly know how to create a good menu that tantalizes the taste buds!

Spacious and Relaxing Room

I was pleasantly surprised by the size of my room. It felt more like an apartment with its spacious layout. The large en-suite with a rain shower was a perfect retreat after a day at the beach. It was wonderfully refreshing to have ample hot water and plenty of towels every day.

Comfortable Bathroom Retreat

The large rain shower in my en-suite bathroom was a highlight of my stay. After spending long hours in the sun, it was the perfect way to rejuvenate myself. It was refreshing to have consistent hot water and a spacious setting, which truly enhanced my overall experience.

Really good Beach Facilities

The beach facilities at Sandy Haven were great. Relaxing on the beautiful beach with a cold drink in hand was bliss. The beach layout with comfortable chairs made it easy to unwind, and I loved having drinks served right to my spot on the sand.

I had a wonderfully relaxing stay at this boutique hotel, with beautifully renovated rooms and outstanding service from the staff, especially Pops and Michelle. The beach location was absolutely stunning, making it perfect for a peaceful getaway. On the downside, the dining experience was hampered by slow service, and there were issues with parking and the hot tub not working. Despite these minor inconveniences, I would definitely recommend this hotel for those looking for a cozy and intimate stay.

This resort has an incredible atmosphere, and returning feels like coming home.

I spent a memorable Thanksgiving weekend at this hotel, which offered a breathtaking ocean view and well-kept grounds. The service was decent but could definitely use some improvement, especially during dining. Although I loved the beach access and peaceful surroundings, some aspects, like the barbecue dinner, were not up to par. Overall, it was a beautiful spot to unwind, but not everything met my expectations.

I had a delightful stay at Sandy Haven. The location right on the beach is unbeatable, and the rooms were clean and beautifully designed. I really appreciated the friendly staff, especially 'Pops' and Kerry, who added a touch of fun to our time there. However, I did face some issues with the amenities not being as promised, particularly the Wi-Fi and hot water situation, which was a letdown.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the beach atmosphere is beautiful and the staff was polite, the amenities were severely lacking. We faced a lot of issues with Wi-Fi, hot water, and restaurant availability, which dampened our stay. The overall vibe felt more chaotic than relaxing, so I can't fully recommend it despite a few redeeming moments.
