I loved the resort. Lucy checked us in and she went above and beyond to place us in the best possible room - well before check in time even! The resort was upscale, the rooms were beautiful and well equipped. The restaurant and bar were great. The pool and beach were perfect. No complaints and would definitely stay again.

I booked my room for September at the Sandpearl during their flash sale in August. On a lark, I checked the regular rate a week before I’m supposed to check in and the rate is significantly lower. I called Sandpearl reservation and asked them to cancel my original reservation and if they could refund the non-refundable deposit of $50 given that their regular rate is lower than the “sale” rate. The agent refused and said that rates change all the time. While I understand this, I find it ridiculous that they could not issue a $50 refund given the much lower regular rate. Read less

Family trip, booked 5 rooms for 3 days to spend time with family. Expected a high end experience but was delivered an underwhelming stay. Good location, decent size rooms, clean. What sets out a good place from an average one is the little things. Not so good. The reserving of chairs by the pool and on the beach is out of control. By 7am all of the chairs by the pool, and most of the chairs on the beach are reserved with towels. The hotel claims to have a policy to restrict this, however it wasn't enforced. Even on a day with torrential thunderstorms the chairs had been reserved. The hotel charges a daily resort fee however they still charge $30 per day for beach umbrellas. The hotel bar only had one server. The server wasnt happy that she was the only one taking care of a lot of tables and made a point of telling everyone she was overworked. Not pleasant. Battery on the lock to our door died and we couldnt get into our room for some time. On a positive the hotel was fairly prompt in fixing. Day before checkout we asked for a 1 hour additional late checkout. Was informed that we could only do this after 9am on the day of check out. The next day at 9am we went down to ask again. At this point we were told there were no more late check outs available. We than found out from others in our group that they went down at 8am and were granted a late checkout. Upon bringing this to the attention of Leigh Ann at the front desk she essentially said to bad. Its the little things that distinguish average from great. The Sandpearl didn't deliver. All of these items were brough to the attention of management before departure. Read less

I would have rated this 5/5 but our room overlooked the garbage area which was noisy and at times smelled. We paid for a partial gulf view but didn’t expect it to be over the garbage area. We were return guests and were told that the hotel was at 50% capacity but they would’ve charged a fee to change our room.
