Reviews based on Food
I recently stayed at Sands Harbor Resort and was very pleased with my experience. The Sands Harbor Restaurant has delicious food (I didn’t try the other restaurant, The Rusty Hook, but I did hear it was very good as well). Making it a great place where boats pull up for a tasty bite and a cocktail with a tropical vibe. The special part is the attention, care and friendliness of the staff. Especially, the Manager Keith. He made sure to greet every guest, ensuring that they were having a good time, as well as everyone who pulled up on a boat, establishing a feeling that all are at home at the restaurant. The rooms were recently updated and were very lovely. All rooms face the South, so that everyone has a beautiful view. The housekeeping staff and check-in staff are extremely hospitable and will bend over backwards to make sure your stay is absolutely 100% wonderful. I highly recommend Sands Harbor Resort & Marina.

Went for New Years, great location. Had a problem with a table, Gina and staff went above and beyond to relocate us, which wasn't easy being New Year's. As for food, was ok, will give them a pass as it was a holiday. Definitely will try again
