Amazing Sunrise View
This was one of my absolute favorite places to stay. The 11th floor view of the Atlantic Ocean was amazing! Being able to watch the sunrise every morning made the trip worth it.

Hospitality is personable
Jimmy in Maintenance was awesome! We had to move to another room because toilet was leaking. Jimmy took care of everything even retrieving the keys to new room. The lady at the front desk requested we come down to get keys. Jimmy saw we were loaded with luggage and helped us tremendously!!!

Great stay
We had a great stay at Ocean Sands. The property was well maintained and the staff were super friendly and were happy to help with all our needs. The room itself was comfortable and well appointed. A slight musty odor in the room is the reason for my only 4 stars on cleanliness.

Great place for a getaway.
Looking for a place on the beach to celebrate our wedding engagement.This place did not disappoint. Great spot right on the beach, excellent and an extremely pleasant staff. I accidently left my wallet in the bedside table, they alerted me and mailed it back. Will definitely book this property in the future.

This hotel is outdated, old and bathroom and bed conditions not ideal. They did not have linen for couch roll out, was told they were out of linen- we had to make shift it using top bed sheet. Unprofessional staff at desk. Asked for any restaurant recommendations in walking distance for a late 830 dinner and the the front desk could not provide any suggestions but take out. Would not recommend this for a family. Overpriced resort fees,etc did not make this a good deal to support the uncomfortable full bed or roll out couch.
