Opal Sands was a perfect stay for our family. The pool and lounge chairs overlook the Gulf. Dining amenities were excellent. A short walk to the public beach. And on top of that you can use all the amenities of the sister hotel Opal Sol

We liked that this resort was right on the beach and had a nice pool. Lots of amenities like a “pantry” on each floor with bottled water and snacks for the guests and free ice cream by the pool daily at 2pm. It was also nice that we could also use the pool and eat at the restaurants at their sister property Sol located right next door. Staff were friendly and accommodating and the rooms were comfortable and clean.

The staff was helpful and polite. The room was as described when booked. The pool area is nice but unfortunately the pool is basically for kids, you just cannot swim in it, there is no deep area for adults. So didn't enjoy it. The tips expected are quite high starting from 20% to 30%. Finally the housekeeping is very poor to say the least, they never cleaned our room or emptied the trash despite us being out for 6 hours everyday. They just knocked on our door around 5pm asking if we need anything for the room. Totally unacceptable for a room charge of $500/night.
