Portsea pet-friendly accommodation

2nd or 3rd time staying at The Sands. Rooms are spacious, clean and all the apps on tv(not that you need). The shower is huge but water pressure average. I came back from the beach with so much sand I asked for a sponge to sweep it up in the shower “don’t be silly, housekeeping will take care of you”. The reception staff are amazing. They helped with an injured bird that crawled up to me on the lovely outdoor area looking out at the golf course. All the staff are amazing, from cleaners, reception(Robyn is fantastic). The staff really go above and beyond. Cora and Levi make a terrific coffee in the morning, Jayden on the bar and restaurant in the arvo has expert knowledge of menu and wines. Dan from Italy making the best Pizza that so hot and spicey (I’m gluten free and it had taste!). Always a pleasure to stay but I still ask BRING BACK THE BLT at breakfast! The Fitness space is adequate for a short stay and staff are friendly. I would and will continue to stay here, sometimes it’s a bargain compared to other locations in the area and the amazing service is outstanding.

Check in was very welcoming and efficient. Good undercover parking included and room was great size, clean and very quiet. Close to beach, walking paths and only 1.3 km from restaurants and coffee shops. Great relaxing stay.

Have stayed many times over the years when it was The Salvation Army's conference centre. Loved the transformation. I have special dietary needs and the breakfast options really worked for me. Will not hesitate to book future stays. Staff very helpful in organising an early arrival due to me attending a wedding that day. Thank you.
