What lovely hosts who accommodated our 5am arrival and gave us an undisturbed later check out. This made a huge difference having a delay in our arrival and a long flight. The accommodations were clean, quiet and very comfortable. Thank you

Nice one night stay at the White Sands, looks a little tired from the outside but rooms and bar area really nice. Unfortunately the welcome was not very warm, we did arrive early so thought we would see if the rooms were ready, but the receptionist looked at us as if we had committed some atrocity. All staff we encountered later were very warm and friendly, but first impressions matter.
