    I was disappointed that there was no handicap entrance to the beach. The room was musty all our items were damp. Room was out dated with limited outlets for chargers and other electronics. Would not book in this building again.

    Beautiful property for just a short 2 night stay very clean and beach area was so convenient nice for short visit.. The storm door could have been better but all in all a great place for short visit. People did have dogs on the property which I didn’t think they were allowed.. I’m allergic to dog dander.

    Perfect place for a couple's retreat. The outside of the property was in need of TLC and the upstairs isn't being used. It was worrisome at first glance, but don't judge a book by its cover. Once inside, the room was super clean, and everything was in good working order. You could be on the beach in one minute and the gazebo on the walk to the beach was very nice. The location was convenient and close to many restaurants, a movie theater, and an axe-throwing place. This was nice since we had some rain one day. The beaches were clean and really quiet, especially for a holiday weekend. It is great for a quick weekend with good company.

    For us, the property was a bit small but was fine for a weekend. Not sure this would have been the case for longer. However, the beach access was fantastic.

    Overall the experience was pretty good However, the TV and cable box was hard to work in a sitting position. We either had to stand in front or raise the remount over our heads. Would suggest a wall mount for both.

    This rental was wonderfully convenient to the beach! We loved the gazebo, pool and friendliness of others staying at Ocean Sands. It was very quiet & relaxing. The room was extremely clean & tidy. We also loved that beach chairs were available so we didn't have to pack ours. This was our 3rd time in 4 years utilizing this same room, (the 1st two times under a previous realtor), and we can't wait to visit again!

    Absolutely enjoyed our stay here! The studio is perfect for a couple’s getaway & has everything you need. The location is fantastic- steps away from the ocean & outdoor pool, 3mins from Food Lion, & so close to many other shops/restaurants. Would love to stay here again!
