Such a cute and clean place to stay! I was impressed by how clean the property was. Very nice location. The pool did get a little crowded, but there was always plenty of space on the private beach area! I would definitely stay here again!

Thank you, Sandy, for your review. We are happy that you were pleased with the cleanliness of the unit. Have a wonderful remainder to your summer. Take care, Jennifer
This was our 3rd stay at Ocean Sands but our first in Jen and Ben's unit. This is by far our favorite one. Everything you need is provided including the softest towels and a dehumidifier! It makes such a difference and there was no musty smell like some of the other units. We recommend emptying right before going to bed to avoid being woke up by the beep that's it's full. The pool is great and of course it is steps away from the beach. We can't wait to come back next year.

Enjoy the rest of your summer. 😊
Take care,

We enjoyed it for 2 people(3 would be too tight). Bathroom was great with nice big shower and plush towels. Kitchen good counterspace. Do not bring too many clothes as there are no real closets but a nice vanity that worked. Very accommodating with an easy walk of about 1 minute to the beach with a wonderful gazebo walkway. Near many restaurants, Fort Macon, and Beaufort. Looking forward to returning soon!

Thank you Page for the kind words. So glad you enjoyed your stay. Enjoy your summer!
The condo is the perfect size for a couple with 1 or 2 children. The walk to the beach was very short and the property was very clean. I would book this again since it’s priced just right.

Hi Ashley, So glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your review. It is much appreciated.

Enjoyed the stay. Condo perfect for 2 people anymore would be crowded. Loved having the pool and ocean right outside the door. We were not oceanfront but could still hear it from room
This our third time staying at this place. It is always clean and comfortable! You can’t beat the location of being right on the beach plus, it is a private section of the beach so it is never really crowded. The host is wonderful and we will definitely be back again!
