The road to get here is TREACHEROUS but the view is UNBEATABLE. Truly the most gorgeous sunrise I've ever seen. The room had a mostly smell and the bathroom could use an update.

Room was clean. You have to fill out a registration card online. I did this a week before our stay but the day before and the day of our stay, we kept getting notices that we needed to fill it out. Extrerior could use a little refresh but inside was nice, clean and updated.

Amazing stay. Very clean, the kitchen was great since there is not much choice in town for food. Loved the view and being right by the cove. Birds were amazing, and seals everywhere. Great place to come and relax.

Location, location, location! This place is all about its beautiful ocean views and the sound of the surf. We are already talking about when we can come back. We had concerns about the check in since it was all online and coverage in that area is poor, but we finally found a spot where we could download the email and got the entry code, so it worked out.

The incredible view of the ocean slamming against the rocks required an afternoon happy hour everyday on the balcony. Whenever we return to Black Sands Inn, it will not be soon enough. What a secret getaway of solitude and beauty that only few know about.

Views where amazing property was clean and orderly, check in was awkward as they had sent me the wrong room number and entry code so we walked into a room that was already being occupied. But we were able to get in touch with a person and it got resolved almost immediately
