Great location across the beach, short walk on the Esplanade & atmosphere to peach festival music. Suite had kitchen & the pool. DID NOT LIKE- no toilet paper, no toiletries, no tea/coffee, spider webs on ceiling fan chains, blood stains on spare pillow & pillow case, dirty dishes in cupboard, blood stained filthy sheets in hide a bed

Great, bike friendly place to stay. The people there are super friendly. Lots of room, dishes, good microwave, good fridge, good wifi, pretty much everything you need. Its not a new/shiny 5 start hotel and there is a few minor things I would spend a day and fix it up that would go a long way but in the end, its the only place in Penticton I ever go to as it fits my needs perfectly.

A good location at the beach, Okanagan Lake, just across the beach. Room was simple but quite large. Had Tv, 2 burner tove, coffee maker. They could probably add a little more kitchen stuff to to the room and a sponge to clean the dishes. Owner was helpful an broght exgtra glasses and a salad mixing bowl. You can wal to a grocery storeand also to dowtown. Good restaurants and coffee shops nearby.

The Golden Sands Resort has a great location. Our room wasn't ready for check-in time however, and the property itself could do with some updating.
