Location: A+ | Cleanliness: F-

Pros: All of the rooms are oceanfront, with private balconies. Our suite was on the 14th floor, which gave us an excellent view of the ocean, beach, & boardwalk. Our suite was very spacious, and was very reminiscent of a tiny apartment. Cons: The furniture is very worn and dated, but that's not a game changer. What is a game changer is that the suite was dirty. I was totally disgusted. The couch in the sitting area was so dirty that it needs to be replaced. I wouldn't dare sit on it. We used it as a holder for our suitcases. There were surfaces that obviously hadn't been wiped down because there were spots that were easily visible. And I know that it's a beach hotel, and I can understand there may be some residual sand left on the floor from the previous guests, but what I couldn't understand was the hair on the floors, behind the bathroom door, and in the corners. It was so gross. Speaking of corners, every corner in the suite was full of dust and dirt. My husband and I were there for the weekend only, so we made it work. I would not have wanted to spend an entire week in that suite. The ONLY real saving grace was the oceanfront view.

Loved staying here! Great view from the balcony and staff was very friendly. Loved that we had a kitchen and was definitely worth getting the condo room. Air conditioner did leak on our balcony but I think it was from how hot it was while we were there. Will be looking forward to staying here again next time we vacation here.

Great Location! Full kitchen! Jet Tub! Indoor Pool! Only thing I miss is there is only 1 bed and pull out sofa, as kiddos get bigger would book a room with 2 beds but not available. Have stayed 2 years in row we enjoy the property.

The parking was somewhat of an issue. It appeared clean but i think the dirty stained carpet alluded physiologically that it appeared unclean. Bathrrom very clean. We had fresh bedding i just think maybe slight renovation would help in appearrance of cleanliness (carpet). First impressions set the stage. My granddaughter loved the kitchen and the pool. The microwave woth oven was awesome. Communication needs imprivement. Itcwas hard getting a hold of someone to answer question which made booking hard. Also unsure of the oven so pre coojed mist of our food.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Ocean Sands. The property is a little dated, but you cant beat the price and amenities. Loved that there was a masseuse in house, Jamie did an awesome job, but the resort should consider soundproofing the massage room or relocating it. Noise from the pool was a bit distracting when getting the massage. Everyone on staff was friendly and accommodating, and the on site restaurant was very good! We will definately stay here again!

This property was not clean and needs a major update. I’m grateful I had Clorox wipes with us. It also needs to have the carpet torn up. It was disgraceful. The only positive was the view! Oh and the alarms went off twice in the middle of the night to evacuate the hold building. We were told some sort of technical issue.
