Wrong: we were told that we'd be kicked out if we tried to let a third person stay! Check my review if you want to know more about the laughably bad experience there. Standish Hotel to the rescue! They were not far from the casino, and they were cheaper. Plus, no draconian occupancy rules. The room is spacious and the beds are comfortable. There's a good-sized fridge and a small microwave. But, the awesome thing is that the TV has literally hundreds of stations, including premium stations like HBO. There are security cameras along the walkway between the rooms. This may seem unusual, but I like the idea that the hotel manager is keeping an eye out for trouble. Next time I'm in the area, I'll want to spend the night here.

I appreciated having an full size ironing board as my husband is in town for work , and I wanted to have him look his best. I like the decor well although they are in process of touching up the walls which didn't bother us. The locals we have spoken with say it is the only place in town to stay. Even with the 25$ a night pet fee it is reasonable. 85$. Another plus is the gas station close by (BP). I was able to get coffee there and bring it to our room where we sat at our little table and enjoyed. The gas station also had the computer plug I needed to charge my phone. All rooms are easily accessible( no stairs to climb). The front desk lady was very nice. So happy to have found this place.

Crystal Sands Beach resort was able to accommodate a girls weekend (17 girls) easily. The beach house apartments provided plenty of room, gorgeous views, full kitchen and an open floor plan. The Villa's are equipped with full kitchens, bedrooms, and open floor plans in general living areas. The Suite's were open floor plans with refrigerators and coffeemakers. The property and beach were well kept and grounds crews seemed to make regular rounds to ensure cleanliness. The resort is on the beach and has a gorgeous beach area. There were many families and children enjoying their swimming, kayaking, and bulldog sand castles. At night the resort set up chairs and multiple fire pits on the beach for guests and kept the wood coming and fires going! The resort also came equipped with regular housekeeping which included daily garbage changes, cleaning, and towel replacement. The resort is handicap accessible with an ADA Suite and handicap beach access. My travel companion is wheelchair bound and we had no problems getting around. The beach house steps were wide enough to get a wheelchair bound person up and down and all staff and owners were quick to offer assistance when we took the wheelchair and occupant of wheelchair up and down the steps. I've stayed in many (most) locations in that area on the beach and this is by far the best. We can't wait to go back for our annual girls weekend next year! I can't say enough about the location or the amazing staff/owners of the resort. They truly work hard (while making it appear effortless) to ensure everyone is having a great time. Thank you Sam and Nada!!!! It was truly a pleasure meeting you and thank you for such a great time and all that you did to make our 25th annual weekend perfect!

The price has gone…read moreup since then, about $5 higher for my room, but still just under $50 after taxes for one person. They have been completely redoing it, partly due to the no-smoking laws that have been in effect for awhile. Now they can repaint, replace carpets, curtains, whatever to get rid of any smoke residue--though I commented in my review of my 2007 stay that there wasn't any smoke smell. This room had been freshly painted and was quite huge. Included in their amenities I found the room to provide a frig and microwave (always appreciated), ironing board and iron, a nice large screen TV (tho the reception was poor), a hair dryer, Kleenex, coffeemaker and coffee packs, magazines in a rack, a clock radio, a complimentary deoderant, shampoo & soap, nicer wood hangers, two extra chairs and a coffee table, and a large desk with three drawers. Ice is available from the front desk. This would be a great place for a longer stay. I know I will continue to stay here anytime I'm lucky enough to get to Pinconning for some of their wonderful cheese!

She showed us to our room and offered to help us with our bags. The house is so beautiful down to the last details. Very quiet and peaceful. The bed was so comfortable, I sank in when I layed down, it was great. Sheets were super soft, however polyester, so it was hard to keep cool at night, as they didn't breathe. Breakfast was served at 9 am, a plated breakfast at individual tables. It was nice, that way I could just have a semi private breakfast with my husband. We will definitely stay again! Highly recommended!

It was her first time there so we didn't know our way around. My wife had a conference her Business was putting on and so we brought a lot of things with us. We had to decorate a suite for over 30 visitors staying with us. The house cleaning staff was perfection. They made us feel very welcome. They were kind. They went out of their way to be sure to ask if we needed anything at all. That was great service. Rooms were comfortable and clean. But I don't think they were worth $350. Especially with the construction happening. It felt like we were losing a bit of the experience. Even the gift shop was closed. It was interesting to me because we are coming to see Rod Stewart in September. It was a preview to us and how things might be. I understand construction can take time and it's necessary. But nobody should pay a premium and get half of the experience. The casino was beautiful, but confusing. And confusing is not a good way to gamble your money.
