Classic beach hotel with 2-3 separate buildings including one large oceanfront building. Nice staff and easy check in/out. Very convenient location for someone wanting to be centrally located on the island.

We always love staying off season at the Drifting Sands. The oceanfront 3rd floor balconies provide a great and relaxing view of the ocean and beach. The room was freshly painted and well decorated. The staff has worked hard to refresh everything and it shows.

Right on the beach. This hotel needs some TLC. The rooms are a bit outdated and they did not smell great. It was ok for one night.
