Absolutely perfect for us!

The place was exactly what we needed and perfectly placed on the "strip". We had a very nice stay and we really recommend it. *If you count on the hide-a-bed, make sure its for a little kid. Matress is very uncomfy

Comfort of home, while away from home!

The whole experience was nice. The booking, correspondence with owner, and the check in process were all top notch. A+ all the way! The unit was very clean with comfy beds, and televisions in each room. The kitchen had everything we needed on those days that we opted to stay in and cook. And the bath room was spacious, well lit, and had a jetted tub. I wouldn't hesitate to book with this owner again, and will refer all my friends/family. Thanks again, for helping to make this much needed vacation a nice one!

Labor Day trip

Everything was good and as expected. The mattress on the queen bed and pull out need replaced badly. Probably the worst I’ve ever slept on anywhere. The floors were dirty. Had to keep shoes on the whole time. Otherwise, all was well! I would rebook if the mattresses are replaced.

Spring break disappointment

Tried to check in and was told I was not in computer. Showed my proof and the 2 females working left me standing there with no help and were worried more about getting off time. The 2nd shift male came on duty and had been listening and could not believe how I was treated and helped me get a room. 611 room advertised houses 4 . I had to sleep on a pull out sofa bed and their was nothing but springs sticking in my back. I had to take cushions and put them together to allow me to keep from sleeping on floor. So disappointing. Good news was ocean view.

DO NOT TRUST HOST

booked 2 months in advance, only to be told by facility while I was checking in that they no longer honor the host’s reservations as it is a time share and it’s against policy. I called up the host and was told I would see a refund and get a call back. Neither had happened.

BEWARE - Do not book through this owner

The property of Ocean Sands is fine. Nice place. I’ve stayed here before. Unfortunately, this trip I booked through VRBO and owner of the unit Peter. After driving several hours I get there only to find that the resort no longer recognize reservations made through Peter and is fully booked. I won’t get into the reasons but Ocean Sands is NOT at fault. At first Peter is angry when I call to relate I’m stranded with no place to stay and was apologetic. After calling around, Peter is unable to obtain us lodging. Ocean Sands also called around to try and find availability. Peter did refund our money but our planned for weekend getaway was ruined. This whole incident was avoidable by the owner Peter. Beware before you book through this owner.

Older resort on the boardwalk

This is resort that has been sold as timeshares. It is showing it's age. The place is kept clean. There was no reservation made at the resort for our stay. The owner didn't let the property know we where coming. We had printed out the email sent out by the owner and where able to check in using that. In the description of the rental it says smoking is okay on the balcony that is not the case.the bed was not very comfortable. We will look for some place else next time we go to Virginia Beach

Check In Nightmare

The owner of the property did not do their job and notify the resort that we were coming. We waited 45 minutes to check in. Called Property owner twice (voice mailbox full) and texted him four times. We never got a reply. Daniel, who worked the front desk, finally got authorization from the GM to put us in a unit. Daniel was great. My wife was not happy and neither was I. If you rent property there from Owner, Peter, Beware.

Communication was terrible. Had to be moved to non ocean front, not even beach front, to a completely different facility because of over booking. (Booked 8 months prior) Was supposed to be credited $150 for that and all the trouble and have yet to see it.

Nice off-season stay at the beach

Unit is small, but clean and efficient. Enjoyed the pool; great beach and boardwalk, of course. Good restaurants versus near by, but many are not open in February. Staff at the resort were friendly and helpful. (For some reason our single 8-day vrbo booking was 3 separate reservations in their system, which took some extra effort.) Overall, just what we were looking for.
