We really enjoyed our stay at the Sandaway. It was quiet and peaceful in a wonderful spot, right on the water, next to the yacht club. We loved walking around Oxford, a quaint and historic little town. A quick strolling over to the Market for breakfast sandwiches and the Social Cafe for great espresso based coffees and pastries. Contactless check-in was a breeze. Having prepaid, we found our designated parking spot, went to our room and our key was in the lock. Complimentary water bottles and goodies thoughtfully welcomed us. Our “room” turned out to be a suite with full kitchen, sitting area and two TVs. The feel of the place, the bathroom etc, is pretty rustic and dated, but that didn’t bother us at all. It felt appropriate to the feel of the lovely town.

Anyone with mobility issues should look only at the newer units on the property. The charmingly uneven floors of the original, vintage structure can prove difficult for some guests.

Awesome, Clean, Beautiful
Sandaway was the perfect 3 night stay for my husband and me. The room was beautiful, the sheets and bed was luxurious, and the views of the water in our screened in porch was fantastic. The owners couldn't do enough for us. The communication was great and they left plenty of snacks and coffee which was appreciated. I asked for a few more towels and it was delivered to our door within minutes. We will definitely stay again. Thank you Gibson Family!!

Loved this gem of a hotel in Oxford. Perfect for a short getaway. Lovely property with chairs to sit right by the water and enjoy the sea breeze. Room was adorable with a view of the water. Oxford is a cute little town and everything is easy to get to from the hotel. Highly recommend Sandaway.

Getaway to Sandaway
I took a solo trip and picked the perfect spot. This family owned inn is great for a family trip, a romantic getaway, or for a quiet escape by yourself. The owners are such a welcoming family and made me feel very like VIP. I will be going back and recommend Sandaway to anyone looking for that getaway in the Eastern Shore. Thank you Gibson Family for a wonderful experience!

Beautiful place
What a wonderful place !So many extras made it feel like home …. Extra trash cans in the room and 2 in the bathroom!… lots of chairs outside and special hammock like chairs on the porch! So many nice touches … lots of lamps on the room … nice … the only downside was NO BREAKFASTS! When we pay $ 300 a night we expect breakfast … and the place the owner told us we could go and buy breakfast was closed the whole time we were there for 3daus! Just a little continental breakfast would have made this perfect
