I was quite happy with my stay at Sand and Tan. The staff was warm and accommodating. The food was delicious and the Jamaican vibe was real. The entrance to the hotel could use some updates, however the facilities was clean and comfortable.

The beach is wonderful. Owner and staff need a class on proper etiquette . Great place for a budget vacation. Bed was comfortable. All you need is your bathing suit. Don’t go expecting too much, you won’t get it . Too many cats .

Beautiful beach access! Staff are very friendly and the rooms are clean with running hot water. The food is on the pricey side and the bar closes fairly early imo (9pm), so if you’re hungry or thirsty late be prepared to venture off the property, but the party vibes are very nice during the weekend. Breakfast is very nice, worth the wake up and the view from the rooms are amazing! Would absolutely stay again :)
