MOB Bar
Scotty K.

I'm a fan of the Sandy Shore. Their location is great! Their beach is very nice! The staff is very friendly. The MOB bar is awesome! We love it here. They have the best connection for food at the beach as the order is brought right to your lap. Night time is the best. The bar is all lit up. You can hear the waves crash as you sleep. If I could make a recommendations for this place I would say they need to upgrade their WiFi. For the amount people pay WiFi should be so much better. They call it the Sandy shore for a reason...but some kind of mats for people to clean their feet off so they don't bring sand into the rooms. No one likes sand in their bed sheets. Outside of that this place is a must! See you again soon Sandy Shore!!

Beach bar

I've always wanted to stay here in all my years of making day trip from CT to misquamicut state beach. It's the hotel at the end of the main drag and were you turn left to go to the state park. I wasn't expecting a fancy-stay just some place where I could walk directly from my room in my pajamas ( if I felt like it) and be on the beach. The lobby is just a small room that is manned by the manager lady who also was running the beach bar. We came in off-peak May so this probably changes when they are busier. We had booked on hotels.com so it had selected the very smallest and therefore worst room in the place ( room 14) on the top floor. After talking with the manager at the bar she told us it was better to call and speak with them to book the room so they could help us make a better selection next time. Out room was so small the only ventilation was the double doors, which are 1 foot from the queen bed. If you want air that isn't from the air conditioner unit you have to leave your motel door open. This was the smallest motel/hotel room I have ever stayed in. Even compared to places in Japan. Nevertheless it had a modern tv mounted up in the corner of the room that had an HDMI port for our roku stick. They have cable but we like access to our Netflix/Hulu/AmazonPrime/YouTube too. They don't usually provide hairdryers but my husband asked and they let us borrow one. They even offered to move our room after Sunday since the whole place had emptied out for the week. We declined since we were only staying one more night. We only had one night stand and no lamp ( we asked and gave us one - I think they were still getting ready for the season) The fridge was a college size half fridge which was nice. No coffee-maker. You couldn't probably guess there is no breakfast offered as well. There are some good places about 8 min drive away: Sunny Side Up and Cooked Goose. We ended up spending a decent amount of time at the beach bar, which is a very nice feature. Comfortable seating and friendly bartender conversation. One more thing the walls are very thin, I think I could hear our neighbor snoring at one point. Also if your neighbors are partying you can hear a lot.

Cozy clean get away. Gene the owner makes everyone feel like family & friends! A bar is set up right on the beach with live music in the summer. You can have a blast or just relax. If it's not sold out and you're lucky enough to get a room you won't be disappointed! Close enough but far enough away from it all!!

Newly renovated guest room

We had a really great experience here this past weekend celebrating our anniversary. This was our first time staying here and it did not disappoint. We arrived to be meet by Frank who issued us our parking spot and told us were to park. We chatted a few mins and he told us we were assigned one of the newly renovated rooms. He was super helpful. When I went to check in at the desk a short time later, we meet Stephanie who was so nice and made check in a breeze. We got to our room and were blown away by it . It was beautiful, nicely done. See the attached pictures. There are even beach towels nicely folded for the guests to use. The new huge deck was wonderful and every room has an ocean view. What a beautiful spot. There outside bar was great, we talked to the owner a few times and Stephanie, who was also a great bartender. The were both great. On Fri they had a guy singing , who was awesome. We have been coming down to Misquamicut for the last 10 yrs for an anniversary weekend and use to stay next door , but he no longer books rooms. The Sandy Shore is our new spot for years to come .

Safety issue?

We drove 16 hours to go to our daughter's bridal shower and I wanted to see mystic Connecticut, we…read morefigured we would find a hotel when we got there, wanted to kinda check it out first. All the hotels were ok but none would let us check in early. We wanted showers so bad after that drive. My husband found this hotel online only a few miles from Connecticut. we called and talked to Al, who was so welcoming told us to come over and that he would check us in early! Got there the hotel is right on the water. We were greeted in the parking lot and given a parking spot . Check-in was easy rooms were clean. The neighborhood is so fun full of cute little shops. So happy that he found this hotel. When we checked out and were about three hours away from the hotel, we realized we left my daughter's favorite blanket in the room. Doesn't seem like a big deal, but this was a huge disaster! I called the office and Al said that he would go look for it, he called me back, found the blanket and actually took time out of his life to mail it to our house. So thankful for him and the staff at the hotel. They went above and beyond anything they had to do. I would highly recommend this cute hotel on the beach and the staff.

Loved the location, size of king size room and the balcony with a perfect view of the ocean! CLEAN…read moreCLEAN CLEAN!! Parking staff and owner were super friendly. There is an elevator which is perfect if you can't do stairs or have a little too much to drink while out! Just the right amount of beach space with the ability to walk endlessly. We loved that there were quiet hours. We had the room across from the elevator/stairwell which ended up being perfectly quiet. Can't wait to book our next stay.

There were some positives and negatives during our stay, and it's important to note that this B&B…read moreis under new management. It's never easy taking over a B&B, and the family that now runs this place seems very nice, and hospitable. That said, at $450 or more per night, execution is requisite for a high Yelp rating. We stayed here four 4-days and 3-nights in the Rosa room. Each room here is somewhat unique (I think there are only 8 rooms here), therefor experiences may be somewhat idiosyncratic to the specific room. Positives: + Hospitable welcome, alerted us by phone when the rooms was ready + Welcome gift (nice touch) + Large room + Gas fireplace which worked well + Comfortable king bed + Pleasant grounds + Separate entrance for this room + Convenient location + Excellent homemade breakfast with seating times to prevent crowding Negatives: - Road noise (on a very busy road, traffic including trucks 100 feet away) - Musty smelling, we couldn't keep windows open at night due to road noise - No sugar, etc. in room for coffee - Bathroom outlets not working - Bathroom door difficult to close - Blinds were broken on one side, and just left standing in the corner of the room, these should have been removed if they could not be repaired - Large piece of plastic left on the window sill, looked dirty there, not well cleaned - Uncomfortable sleep sofa couch for sitting and small TV - Microwave not working (actually it was after we figured out nobody plugged it in) - Outside light over door is on automatic timers, too bright for the light filtering shade, so the room is lit up at night (we prefer a dark room for sleeping) - Rosa backs up to the kitchen, and we could hear a lot of banging and noise at 10pm as they were doing prep work for the next morning The negatives balance out the positives for a 3-star stay. Bottom line, we'd be unlikely to return, especially to that room.

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights in July. The hosts were amazing. Our room was clean and spacious…read more The breakfast was delicious. The grounds were spectacular. We would highly recommend this B&B. Scott and Wanda.
