Reviewer Comments:
We stayed at Sandy Wheels for almost 2 weeks while in the area for a medical treatment. We had just a few but very important factors, on/close to the sea, quiet, clean, and comfortable. Sandy Wheels was all of that for us. We loved the property - the recent, modern updated kitchen and bathroom, perfectly sized/stocked kitchen, comfy king size bed, spaciousness of the rooms, and of course the sounds and breeze from the sea. But just as important was Stubbs management team. There was some work getting done on the building while we were there, and Stubbs really worked to accommodate us, moving us into another sea side property. Kevin went above and beyond to make sure we were set up and comfortable and when you're at a place to rest that extra care and attention means so much. We can't thank Stubbs enough for the great property and customer service. Without a doubt, when we're in the area again, we'll be calling Stubbs.
