I had a wonderful experience at Ocean Sands Resort. The location is perfect, right on the boardwalk with easy access to the beach and great nearby restaurants. The staff really went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, addressing our needs promptly. However, the rooms are quite small, especially for a family, and it felt a bit cramped at times. Overall, it was a great stay with lovely ocean views, but I wish the room size was more accommodating for families.

My stay at the resort had its ups and downs. While I enjoyed the stunning ocean views from my balcony and the friendly staff who went out of their way to help, I was disappointed with the condition of the room I initially received. It felt rundown and in need of a serious update, although the second room I was given was much better. The facilities, particularly the indoor pool, were a nice touch, but overall, I felt that some areas required more attention to truly deliver a relaxing getaway experience.

Our annual stay at Ocean Sands was fantastic once again! The fantastic indoor heated pool and jacuzzi added to the experience, and we had a great time enjoying the area, visiting places like Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown. However, we did encounter some issues with cleanliness in our unit that left us slightly disappointed this year.

My stay at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. While I appreciated the stunning ocean views and the friendly interactions with the staff, I was disappointed by the cleanliness of the rooms and the overall condition of the facilities. It's a place with great potential but needs significant improvements to meet expectations.
Rooms

The second room we were given was in much better condition than the first, but both required deeper cleaning. The floor was sticky, and the corners had dust and hair that suggested it hadn't been properly attended to. I'm giving the rooms a rating of 5 for this reason.
Service

The service, though friendly, was less organized than I would have hoped. After a long check-in process and room mix-up, it seemed like some staff were not fully informed about reservations. I'll rate the service a 6 due to the mixed experiences.

While the facilities had the potential for a great experience, they felt neglected and unclean. The indoor pool area was nice but needs better maintenance. I would give it a rating of 6.
