Dont let this place FOOL you
I was told a handicap room is more expensive (than the room i reserved) this was on the 2nd floor and i said i can do a few stairs just not alot. Before even getting there found out this place is across the street from the beach not on it. Then found out there is no railing on the stairs. (Isnt that a law?) Got into the room this place puts all the Extras in. Games, cookies, robes, sunscreen. You name it they probably had it. But need to put the money into a few other things. The rooms are just given a fresh coat a paint and some upgrades. Our bed creaked all night and had me and my husband in pain from laying on it. Way to hard. The second night i litterally contemplate staying up all night so i didnt have to get in the bed. The ice machine on the second floor doesnt work and the water dispeser on the second floor also doesnt work. I dunno about the 1st floor becuse i gave up on this place. You will get SO MANY EMAILS and texts about chekcing in and how is your visit to calll or text a number. I tried many times to call but no answet just rings and rings. The day before check out i got 3 notifications that your check out is tomorrow and if you would like a late check out, would cost you more. The POSSIBLY ILLEGAL notification was when i check out staying that they would refund my parking fee if i left a positive review(so i really wonder how many reveiws were just on there for a refund). STAY AWAY. And best part had all these pic to add and the review will not let me. Funny

A Great Getaway!
The property is clean, friendly, and a convenient location being across the street from the Atlantic Ocean with easy walking access. Hotel staff were friendly and informative with any questions I had. This is definitely the hotel I’ll be staying at on each trip back to St. Augustine!

Would not stay there again
Room has a mold smell. Shower was in a garden tub that is very hard to get in and out of. Television was terrible . Very dark screen hard to watch. Romance package wine was 169 dollars for a 12 dollar bottle of wine and rose pettles . Expected a much better wine choice. Beach is across the street not on property which is very misleading in the ad.

Fun place!
Overall we really enjoyed this place, they paid attention to making it fun and enjoyable. Lots of nice little things or available that you don't usually get to see at hotels. The manager was very nice when I called with a question. I would definitely come again when I'm in the area. The only thing I would change is the patio chairs are very uncomfortable so we borrowed a pool chair which was very very comfortable. They didn't seem to mind that we did that, and we did put it back at the end.

Romantic getaway
We had a wonderful stay to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Upon arrival, Mohinder was very helpful letting us know about all the amenities and making us feel welcome. The hotel texted us before arriving to let us know about their afternoon freshly baked cookies, snacks and games. They had coffee, tea and water all day in the lobby. Great games and entertainment areas. Across the street private beach was lovely to wake up to and get your day started. I highly recommend this hotel. Shannon was great checking us out and giving us goodie’s for the road back home.

4/10 Fair

Absolutely loved the property, beautiful scenery, and cleanliness. However, I am not sure if there is a type of scam but we booked the room through a third-party vendor and due to that, once we got to the hotel, we were going to be charged 180 and then told to call the manager and have the price reduced. Nonrefundable, and apparently it’s for parking and a service fee. Keep in mind on the website it was roughly $70 for one night and in total we ended up paying 240-250. We asked about the service fee and they said, it’s only because of it being booked through a third-party, and if we had came in and paid upfront, it would’ve cost less. Suspicious. The amenities and access, would per se make up for the major financial inconvenience however, it was very last second and thrown at you, especially with them Having the ability to lower the service fee in general. Overall, always have three 400 in case hotels like to sneak HIDDEN fees on you.

2/10 Poor

I was offered a $30 refund on my parking fee if I left a good review, but I refuse to do that for such a terrible establishment. I’d rather sacrifice the $30 and warn others about this scam of a deal. The so-called $44 deal is a complete joke! After checking out, Ocean Sands charged me a total of $170. This hotel is in the middle of nowhere, so charging for parking is absurd, especially when they’re already charging $119 in “service fees.” **What services?!** Open/Half empty - clearly used, bathroom toiletries. The breakfast? Awful—nothing but frozen, reheated food that wasn’t worth eating. The entire building reeks of mildew, and I woke up with a terrible headache and stuffy nose after just one night. It was unbearable. Expedia's offer stated I’d only owe $96 upon arrival. No mention of parking fees. The paperwork I signed mentioned fees between $89-$119, but there was no discussion of why I was being charged the max when the hotel was clearly not at capacity. This place is misleading and far from a good value. Avoid at all costs.
