White Sands is a very basic but adequate guesthouse, especially if you don't intend on staying in your room for long. I stayed in a standard room for a couple of nights; we had a fairly spacious room with A/C. The shower pressure wasn't that great, but other than that, it was a nice room. It wasn't right by the beach, but all we had to do was walk across the road. The beach-side rooms tend to be a little noisier because of the music and people on the beach. I stayed at the one-bedroom apartment right by the beach for a few nights and really liked it. There are three single beds in the living room and one queen-size bed in the room. There is one kitchen and bathroom. The water pressure in this shower was a lot better. The room was a bit dark, but that was the only problem we had with it.
The people who work there are laid-back and helpful. You can book a round-trip shuttle from the Montego Bay airport to the hotel through them. They left a note the night before to remind us of the check out time as well as shuttle time, which I thought was very helpful.
The food at the restaurant is good and the drinks are cheaper than a lot of places in Negril. They were out of callaloo (green vegetable) when we ordered it, so they actually sent someone to buy it for us! The Seven Mile Beach is beautiful, and they have plenty of beach chairs on their property.
