Top hotels in Sandy Beach

Opal Cove Resort
Restaurant food is good but we thought it expensive. The resort is very close to the beach and a lagoon and the grounds are very nice. The buildings are a little run down, but the room was beautiful and very spacious.

Pacific Bay Resort
The property is wonderful however, the room we stayed in desperately required renovation - very tired and old, compared to international and general standards. We stayed about 10 years ago and absolutely loved the resort.
