I always choose this hotel because it feels as close to home, The staff is very accommodating, I had a minor issue and they went above and beyond to help me especially TJ, Akeem and the manager on duty I think her name was Denise, but my phone wasn’t getting great reception so I couldn’t really here when she introduced herself, I apologize! There was another maintenance man that helped and I didn’t get his name!

Beach view was great. Been staying there since 2019, except for 2020. Was going down last year but even m ore this year. Tile floors were chipped or cracked, had to run hot water 30-45 sec for it to get warm in all faucets and shower, shower water fluctuated during the shower from comfortable to cold to hot. Veneer on dining room chairs war peeling It really need updating. I will be finding a new place next year. It's a shame because it's at a great location on the oceanfront.

The ocean view was spectacular! But the room.could certain be cleaner especially the floors. The toilet was small and very low, resembling a toilet more for children. The shower head could use more pressure.

Ocean Sands is my favorite place to relax and enjoy family time. The room was spotless, spacious and quiet. We sat on the balcony and enjoyed the dolphins playing in the ocean. The Neptune Festival was amazing with SEVERAL vendors with excellent deals. All of the staff were pleasant and very helpful. See you at Thanksgiving!

Ocean Sands is centrally located to almost everything since it's on 22nd Street. I have stayed in this resort many times in the past and was pleased. However, the rooms have now been renovated since I was last there and the room was very inefficient... In the bathroom, there is no counter space to place a makeup/cosmetic bag or man's shaving kit bag. There are no longer any cabinets underneath the sink to place anything. There are wall light fixtures in the sitting room that are on the wall on either side of the TV at the ceiling level. Those are the only light fixtures that have USB ports, very inefficient, no where to charge phones, iPads, etc. unless you bring your own USB ports. No end tables on either side of the one sofa in the room. Place your drinks, phones, E-readers, etc. on the floor.

Why are there so few plugs in 2025? I had to pull out furniture to have my phone (also my alarm) charge in the bedroom. The WiFi was super shaky (off and on the whole time). Front desk didn’t answer when I called. Staff wasn’t terribly friendly. I thought the place was fairly clean, until I moved furniture looking for a plug.

Great views. Great location for our needs. The pool, hot tub and sauna were very nice. Would def stay here again. The pillows did suck. We ended up buying a set. So bring your own pillow.
