Sands by the sea is a very down scale motel attached with Cavalier resort. We got mislead by amenities which are basically Cavalier’s. Sands by the sea is a 1.5 star, with dirty building and cracked ceilings. It is completely unmaintained, there is no reception even. You will need to walk to Cavalier for everything. Either go for Cavalier or something else like Comfort Inn etc at same price point but atleast better bed and stable looking building.
