We were so excited to stay at ocean sands and we got there after check in time and had to wait almost 30 minutes for our room. The staff was not friendly at the front desk or at breakfast. We booked an ocean view room and ocean view was a stretch. You could see the sand on the beach and if you stood on the corner of the balcony and leaned over you could barely see the ocean. The resort does not look anything like the photos. Our room was not clean, the shower was not clean, and we were in bed and a HUGE spider crawled down the curtains. I was ready to pack my stuff up and leave at that point. Also, breakfast was just terrible. I didn’t end up eating anything. Super disappointed in this hotel. 1000% would never stay there again.
