Motel in Fenwick Island

Has anyone stayed at the Sands? Rates posted on the website seem good. We are going next weekend and I am trying to decide on an economical but clean and well maintained motel.



Its just my husband and myself. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

This is a clean, yet outdated motel. It is ok. Rooms have old fashioned paneling...and ugly carpeting...but the price and location can%26#39;t be beat. In fact, I know several couples and families that book their weeks a year in advance for the 4th of July! Owners are nice, and they have a pool! There is a TV, bed and bathroom....no frills. Good cheap bet.

Thanks for your reply! I made reservations at the Fenwick Islander which I assume is comparable (or perhaps a little nicer (?)) than the Sands. I had read some favorable info about the Fenwick Islander so I went ahead and made reservations before they were booked. We%26#39;re looking forward to a few good beach days.




The Sands has a very nice pool(although close to the traffic of the highway.) The rooms are antiquated and very small. The bathrooms have terrible water pressure. We used the shower by the pool to ';clean up.'; There are NO extra locks on the rather flimsy wooden doors and this is not comforting. It wouldn%26#39;t take much for someone to literally knock the door down with their bare hands! Also, the cliental staying there were some of the unfriendliest people I%26#39;ve ever met.





The old adage ';you get what you pay for'; really holds true for The Sands. We would never consider staying there again.
