Drifting Sands was attractive and well situated close to the ocean and beach. The rooms are nicely furnished in a nautical theme. We requested a king bed with an ocean view but were given two double beds with a parking lot view. The manager was responsive and offered a small refund of our payment. Still, this inconvenience was disappointing.

Location location location! Simple accommodations in an awesome ocean front location. You have to pay for Oceanfront Room, even though more expensive than non-ocean front options is worth it. Also ask for 2nd or 3rd floor. Note, there is no elevator access available in the ocean front building

When we arrived to check in the office was locked but there was a # on the door and I got an immediate call back letting me know where my key for the room could be found, for the rest of my stay I didn't see any hotel staff, my husband brought the key to the office when we departed. I did get an email saying I was being charged $250 for smoking in the room which I didn't do but my clothes did smell like smoke from the party I was at on Thanksgiving and my husband smoked in his truck and then came in to go to use the restroom prior to our departure. I didn't sign in or sign anything at the hotel, I had the map and key in my envelope and noone requested that I sign anything when we left. I was disappointed that there was no comforter on the bed and seemed like only two sheets which made me cold.

Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback. We attempted to contact you several times regarding the change in lobby hours for the holiday by phone, email and through Expedia. Sorry about any confusion regarding the sign in sheet in your packet - it was with the map and our policy sheet. As for the smoking charge there is a reason hotels charge for guests smoking in the room as it is not fair to the incoming reservations to have to deal with the lingering smell. You were not actually charged for this but we were required to notify you.

We stayed overnight at Drifting Sands“The Annex building” $200 a night (with fees) in November. We expected a basic motel, however it was not the room pictured. The room we were in was worn (also some mold in bathroom) and was very noisy. We could hear everything next door and above us, which included dogs barking both next to us and above us. While I think it is great that they allow dogs, perhaps they should try to separate those staying without dogs from those with, especially because the walls are so thin.
