Great stay at Sand Dunes Resort. The kids loved it and the pool was amazing. Facilities were excellent and the room had everything we needed. Our air-conditioning broke, but the staff were fantastic — they brought in two portable AC units straight away and heavily discounted our stay. Really impressed with the service. Would definitely stay again.
