Nothing fancy but a good room for the price - found the front desk to be helpful. We would stay here again if we were visiting Huntington Beach.

Huntington Beach is a wonderful location and a brilliant place to spend some time if you love the sea (and surfing). This motel is located only a short walk from the pier and the central shopping plaza. In this case it really is a matter of getting what you sign up for. They are not posing as a luxury resort...

My wife and I had no reservations at all but everything worked out fine during our short stay in Huntington Beach. We checked several other hotels/motels in the area, some of them way inland, but decided to stay at Sun 'n' Sands because of the fair rate considering the excellent location. Friendly staff, safe, quiet, walking distance from the pier... More

The Sun and Sands was recommended to me by a friend. After going online and reading some of review I debated about going. I am so glad I went! The lady at the front was amazing. I have a 8, 6 and 3 year old and they all loved her. She was extremely friendly and helpful.

This little motel is not a pretentious hotel but gee, it does the job. The on site manager, Carrie, works hard to please and accommodate her guests. We checked in for two nights, have ended up staying four, and would stay longer if we did not have to fly home. The mini suite we had...slightly larger than your normal double... More

It was our second time there. We were visiting Los Angeles, and I talked my friends into going down there. We didn`t have a reservation, just showed up, but we got our rooms just fine. For a motel it has all the equipment you need. The rooms are a bit tight but you`re not spending much time in there so... More

We had our most horrible hotel-motel experience in our life in this place. The lady at the front desk had an attitude from the moment we walked in. The non-smoking room we got have been heavily smoked in, the rooms were dirty and roach-infested. Will never go back even at gunpoint.

My friend recently stayed at this hotel and was robbed at gunpoint opening the door to his room. I understand this has little to do with the hotel itself, but it seemed rather "convenient" that the security cameras that would have caught the crime "did not have tapes in them" or "were not working". Seems suspect to me.
