Old place that needs updating
This old motel really need updating. Very basic. Cheapo hard mattress with no blankets. Poor in-room climate control. No coffee, no cups. Gravel driveway. Seemed pretty expensive for what you get (or don't get). Good location though.

Beautiful Area, Rude Owners
This hotel is on a beautiful beach in a beautiful area.
When I arrived the office staff was very rude, to the point where I tried to stay somewhere else but I could not find any vacancy.
The shower was very hard to turn on and off. I kept it running a lot of the time. Other then the shower, room 20 was very comfortable.
I would stay at this hotel again ONLY if there was no where else to stay. I would rather book a site at a campground though.
The hotel room was very pretty with a nice kitchen, big table oven and full fridge and microwave.it was clean and the hotel staff very nice too.it was nice to be on the bay.
Run down place. Everything is in bad shape. Had to switch rooms because of ant infestation. Too expensive for what is offered. Too bad. Location is great. Nice beach.
We were hung up on twice when we initially called this place to cancel our reservation - a male employee told us "there is no cancellation policy" and "good luck" before hanging up on us. When we arrived an older woman told us that their cancellation policy is normally two weeks in advance, but she did accommodate us by giving us a bigger room for the two nights which was nice of her to do.
Although the room was close to the beach it did not distract enough from the condition of the hotel. The first thing you see are grounds that are totally neglected and unkempt, but the first thing you smell in the room is a moldy basement, the kind your grandma doesn't even do laundry in. There were ACTUALLY basement centipedes crawling on the ceiling and walls. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls, the cabinets smelled of pure gag-inducing mold, there was black mold on the ceiling above the shower, and when we tried to move the blinds that covered the sliding-glass door, 2 blinds promptly fell off and broke on the ground. If this room were $100-150 per night, I would have endured it without a complaint. The room WAS spacious and we WERE a walk from the beach. But for $220 per night?! I should at least have peace of mind that bugs won't be crawling on me while I sleep and that I won't turn into a black mold spore by the time I leave.
Our experience here was great. The hotel was quiet and perfectly located. Clean and efficient. You can't go wrong with a private beach steps away from your room. This is a low frills place, which means it's simple and sweet, a refreshing break from the usual upiddy crowd of cape cod. A true gem. We will be going back, hopefully sooner than later!

Best feature is location. Rooms were dated but clean. Hotel staff responded right away in taking care of room issues. On a private beach.
My friends and I stayed here for a weekend trip to the Cape. The location was great, with the hotel right on the beach with beautiful views. The room fit the three of us comfortably and had its own deck overlooking the beach. The hotel had an indoor and outdoor pool (though we never got around to using them). Parking was never a problem and the staff was very friendly.

Last min trip during ptown bear week.15$Uber 2town
view /beach 2floor room done in early 70's layout,great water pressure/hot!
I stayed at the Beachfront White Sands hotel for four days over the Labor Day Holiday. The location of the hotel on the beach in North Truro was good. However, there were problems with the toilet not flushing well and noise from the AC in the room as well as noise from other sources at night. The room was clean and neat but the room condition and amenities were just OK.
My contact with hotel staff was limited during my visit but staff services that seem to be available are very limited.

Room with a view
Arrived early and asked if we could hangout on beach till checkin. Were aloud to checkin as room was done. Room was clean but had that cabin must smell. Due to other reviews I brought febreeze which solved the stink. The pillows are like bricks an would move on thier own an end up on table or floor . The view from deck was great could see most of bay. The walk to beach isn't bad but seems long as in sand. The indoor pool was dirty , he must let his dog swim in there as was dog hair floating around. Overall for $200. / nite can't complain , location to p-town is amazing. 5 min drive to town.

Perfect family beach hotel
Great staff, comfortable rooms, fantastic location.
Beach Front White Sands Hotel: Just a roof over yo
This entire facility was threadbare and run in a way that made no attempt to make on feel welcome. The mattress was long past due for replacement and the pillows were as soft as bags of sand. The comforter was in tatters. The tub stall was broken with it's safety bar removed. There was no evidence of maid service. The WiFi was unusable or off 80% of the time and when we could connect speeds were in the ultra slow range of 40-kbs. There was no one in the motel office to answer questions except during small periods in early morning and late afternoon. The TV did work and there was a small frig and useable microwave. There was easy access to the beach with a nice view. By any standards this facility did not rate the two stars it was carrying.
Lack of privacy due to units opening in view of each other's bedrooms, otherwise would have enjoyed sitting out on the deck and having sliders open instead of closing curtains and turning on air conditioner.

No-frills hotel right on the beach
This hotel has a great location - right on the sandy beach, 4 mi from the Truro Vineyards and about 2mi from Commercial St of Provincetown (thus an easy cab-ride over). The staff is really friendly and approaching. The rooms aren't new or fancy, but are good for the price, good enough to sleep in at the end of the day. The indoor and outdoor pool, plus indoor hottubs are all clean and well looked-after.

Good Enough
The room had a lovely view and had everything we needed. The bed had huge valleys and could probably use a new mattress. There was a ridge in the middle, so we didn't roll into each other which was good. There was a definite musty smell in the room which was better when the sliders were opened a little. Walking to and along the beach was great. We were able to see several different species of shorebirds on these walks. The rugosa roses nearby were filled with birdlife also, including mockingbirds and catbirds. This is a true birders' destination. It was obvious that the place was getting ready to close up for the winter and it looked a little tired and run down. There was painting going on, so it may look better in the spring. It was quiet and convenient to P'town and beaches. .
It is perfect Cape Cod, a bit funky, but a nice view of the water. Big beach out front. Room has a fridge and microwave, so it is just what you need. Not real fancy, but very practical and clean. Lots of parking and a pool. Close to P-Town so you can easily ride a bike or drive. The kind of place to kick off your shoes and not worry about the sand. Pet Friendly.

Nice place to relax by the ocean and P-Town Ma
Our room was right on the sand facing the beach. We felt like we had a beach front studio, It was very nice. The pool was very nice. They need to maintain things a bit better especially keeping after rusty areas (caused by the ocean air). They need to have wi-fi in the rooms.

Lower your expectations..
The hotel is old and tired and so are the owners. The owners seem nice but maintining the hotel seems to be a little over whelming for them. The grounds need to be maintained; the planting beds need to be weeded and the lawn mowed. The pools are nice but they need to be spruced up a little. The indoor pool and jacuzzi were nice but the enclosure is very old. I didn't try the sauna. The decks and railing could all use a coat of paint and the indoor outdoor carpeting has some rips.The rooms also need a little attention, there are rips in the wall coverings and cracked tiles in the bathrooms. The rooms were clean enough and the bed linen was washed.Once you realive that this is not a Holiday Inn then you start to accept the place for what it is. You start to realize you really don't need a phone in the room or coffee to go wth the coffee pot or cable TV. You just need a bed, a bathroom a refrigerator and a TV with a few channels. The Beachfront White Sands is a reasonable rices place to sleep in a great location. It is on a beach and is a very short ride to Provincetown. I would not recommend the hotel to a friend without lowering their expectations first. I would stay there again if I could not find another place.
