To get an idea of what kind of bikes other people have used for what you have in mind, go to google images and search for "surfboard on a bike". You'll see some expensive fat tire bikes and some cheap cruisers. All would probably get the job done for you. Fatter tires with some tread are going to work better in the sand but will slow you down a bit on the street.
Thank you all very much! I wanted to see what is the price where bikes don't get significantly better.
I wont be exactly driving in the sand, but the road may have really small amount of sand on it.

I don't mind getting sweaty as I ride. I dry off a while after I arrive. The more you sweat, the more you get used to it.
By the way, where are you? Canada, Europe, somewhere else?
I am from Israel, and it can get quite hot in here.
