Great location on Seven Mile Beach. Easily accessible to great restaurants, grocery store and liquor store. Really enjoyed our second time staying at the White Sands complex. Will be back again!
Condo was very clean, owner came by upon our arrival with thankful greetings. We pretty much had the entire beach to ourselves for most of our 7 days. No complaints.
This location is perfect for people looking for a quiet getaway. The water is perfect and the condo is as described. You open the door and are two steps from the sand. The host and cleaning crew are also pleasant and welcoming. We hope to stay again!
Nothing like walking out the door onto 7-Mile Beach. Location is perfect - off the busy road, but close to shopping, restaurants, and snorkeling at Cemetary Beach. Condo was easy to find and kept clean daily with maid service. Highly recommended.
The beach was great but the unit needs work. Some furniture fabric must have been badly stained because there were towels tucked in around the cushions. The curtain on the rear sliding door needs to be removed and washed, the tops are filthy. Dust must have been accumulating on the tops of lamp shades for years and there was even dust on some walls. There was mold at the bottom of the glass shower enclosure. The bathroom towels were not soft and the quality was not close to being equal to other condo units we rented in the same price range. There were 3 different types of light bulbs used in the lamps in the living room; LED, Fluorescent and incandescent and as a result the room looked very eerie at night. The LED bulbs were day light, not soft white and looked horrible. The light above the dining table wasn't bright enough to be used as a night light. It was a small single tube with an LED light bulb within it. The heating plate of the coffee maker was all rusty. Some dining plates were permanently stained. The thermostat needs to be replaced or recalibrated. It would not stay at the temperature we set. I had to manually turn it on when it got to warm and manually shut it off when it got to cool. It looks as if the owners put this unit together with stuff they had laying around. We would not rent this unit again.
We stayed at White Sands 2 weeks and could have done another 2. Great beach, great location, easy access to town for groceries and other shopping through public transit (2$ per person). We arrived on a Sunday and our first task on Monday was to go grocery shopping. We hired a taxi not being familiar with the lay of the land. Took us there and back, and all follow up groceries wand other shopping was done by bus. Quick, efficient, friendly.
The condo was perfect. Ground floor, feet on the beach, wonderful sand. Kitchen was full equipped, bathroom perfect, living room and TV and internet service perfect. We will be back.
Special thanks to the property manager Marjii who was Avery helpful in getting us going on our first day, and helping us with several first-timer questions throughout.
We loved this condo and would definitely recommend to a friend. Very clean and the property manager is very responsive. The location is excellent. The beach is great- not crowded. Great views from the living room.
Property was clean, quiet, and secluded from other resorts. The beach is cleaned daily. The view is hard to beat. Property manager and cleaning staff were prompt and accommodating if you requested it. Would definitely return!
White Sands was just perfect. The condo was clean and had everything we needed⊠towels, laundry detergent paper towels, cooler, noodles, etc.
The beach was beautiful, calm and never crowded.
It is now one of my top two places for a beach vacation places.
Property is nice and quaint on the West Bay Area. Water out front was great. Less traffic running by the beach in front. Premises was clean and had everything we needed. Daily maid service was a nice touch too. Had a great time and will return for a future vacation. Thanks!

Everything was wonderful!
We loved staying at White Sands #9 and being directly on the beautiful 7 mile beach. The condo had everything we needed including beach towels and kitchen was well equipped with toaster, blender, etc.
Loved this spot! You walk out the back door and your on the beach. Dead center of 7mile beach, and after walking half of 7 mile beach, it is the best beach there. Great ocean view and the sand is perfect! The place itâs self, itâs not the ritz, but itâs a perfect beach house. Go in thinking beach house and you will not be disappointed. EVERYTHING YOU NEED is less than a 5 min drive. Shopping, food, grocery and liquor. Things to know before you go.. Stores closed on Sundays, unless youâre at a resort, everything closes early, they drive in the left, and they use British pounds. Stock up at the grocery. Paddle boards and some float things are there for you. The management replies very quick to needs.Rackem and Sharkeez best bars, Casanova is the best Italian food on the island. We will be back to White sands and highly recommend!
This was our second stay at White Sands #9 and we hope to be back again, although we see significant price increases for the near future. We love everything about this condo and its location, especially being able to go from condo to beach in a few steps, the availability of shade throughout the day, and also the people, many of whom are regularly vacationing there, so it feels like a community. We also love West Bay in general with its Foster's grocery store and excellent take-out places, like Heritage Kitchen, Super C's and Real Taste and restaurants, like Cracked Conch & affiliated Macabuca Bar, Tukka (especially for Taco Tuesday) and Bella Trattoria. One thing to mention is that the beach has experienced a bit of erosion over the last year and it takes some effort to get out of the water as there is a bit of a drop. We also loved our housekeeper Julie and her excellent services, but didn't like the use of conventional cleaning products, as one of us has a chemical sensitivity.

What a lovely place. Close to everything yet far enough to be quiet. No its not a high class resort but if you want a nice low key place on Seven Mile beach this will do the job.
Pros: Best beach with wonderful trees; as listed, this is a well-sized, clean one bedroom apartment.
Cons: A car is absolutely necessary since no restaurants, grocery stores or good snorkeling are nearby; a number of technical breakdowns but they were fixed well by management; no beach toys provided; shampoo not provided; no starter food supplied (no coffee, etc.); furniture upholstery was very dirty.

We were in unit #9 at White Sands. This is the 7th or 8th time we have stayed at White Sands Condominiums. It is quiet, private, and on the prettiest piece of Seven Mile Beach.
