3 adults and 1 child with a 2 queen room. I paid the full price on orbitz expecting the checkin to be smooth sailing and only an incidetal deposit (which was 50 dollars)....noooo. I had to pay a hidden fee of 67 dollars for an extra person to the room. What the heck. Niether orbitz nor their own site display this hidden fee accessible to the paying customer. Be aware!!

Super cute. Very clean. Older. I think they are trying to penny nickle and dime people to death. The boardwalk to the beach needs to be repaired. The virtual check in with someone in another country is very frustrating and backs up the lobby. The maintenance and house keeping staff are kind and working very hard. It is a cute place. Lots of amenities that are very neat and thoughtful and ahead of their time. Just some tiny things that need to be repaired. It’s a nice cute little place. We will be back.

We upgraded to an ocean view room, which was nice. But the west bed was horrible, the mattress was almost concave. The staff was very helpful and nice. 👍 Being a disabled veteran no elevator was a little awkward.

The Ocean Sands Boutique Inn was clean and the location was fabulous. The check-in process was not seamless though. It was "automated" via an offsite person similar to a call center. Unfortunately, the key card issued through the automatic teller did not work, so I had to go back and ask for another one which also didn't work. Then I had to wait while the call center contacted an on-site person to get me a room key which worked. After a long day of travel this is not the hassle I needed. The call center person also gave me false information about the shuttle to St. Augustine which also cost me time and aggrevation.
