Sandyland Reef Inn

Can't beat the price! Room was clean and met all my needs. Bed didn't have cockroaches in it!

Loved this place. Good, positive check-in and congenial staff. I love the general color scheme, the extra little Mexican tile inserts and alcoves. The wooden loggia structures in sun filled spots for sitting and sipping tea before sunset. The strip of landscaping with perfectly maintained, very attractive, healthy looking plants. OK there’s more to be said about outside area stated below. The room was perfect. Spotlessly clean, beautiful and comfy with all facilities I needed (I brought my own electric tea kettle). Upstairs (as requested) facing the freeway (noisy outside I could barely hear a thing inside). Actually beyond the freeway I could see the ocean with wonderful clear sunset views. Would love to return one day.

First impression was "this is delightful", a pleasant break from a difficult road trip. Everything I wanted after a difficult day: cheerful design, comfortable bed, full array of refreshing toiletries. Outside there were three arbors that reached to the second floor with small mature bushes at the base. These broke up what would normally be the normal, boring, boxy uniformity of inexpensive motel chains. There is nothing elaborate or extravagant but everything was... delightful.

I recently stayed at the Sandyland Reef Inn and had a pleasant experience. The location is convenient, close to the beach and various dining options. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, though the pools were out a tiny bummer but it’s okay. The staff is friendly and accommodating, making check-in and check-out smooth. Overall, it's a good option for travelers looking for a decent place to stay near the beach.

Room was clean and comfy, basic cable, nice shower / food water pressure, super close to the highway so it was perfect just as a spot to stop and sleep.
