The location was great, staff very friendly and accommodating, room was nice with full size fridge, bed was very comfortable, large shower, beautiful patio with chairs. Loved the Salt water pool. The extra amenities such as outside gathering area with chairs, grills, hammock, firepit, games, etc were a nice surprise! The breakfast was fresh with a lot of options. Cookies and popcorn each evenings was a hit as well. We were in room 103 which was very convenient. Our interactions with Nick, Salese, Sadee and Jellykla were always pleasant and ready to help! Their smiling faces were greatly appreciated!!!
The only thing I could mention here is the walk across to the beach wasn't complete. We had to walk up a slightly steep area in the sand to get to the beach.

Close to the beach ….Beach is across Hwy A1A

Employees were so nice and pleasant, cutest decor, loved the sitting areas they had
To cross the busy street was a little uneasy but we managed.

We stayed at Ocean Sands last week with our family. The place was very clean. The staff was extremely helpful and very friendly. We had easy access to the beach. There was a very large selection of breakfast food, and the cookies and popcorn in the evenings were an added treat. We would highly recommend this place.

Location
Noisy as all hell. Walls are paper thin. Ceiling as well. Slept about an hour, as people above us stomped around until the wee hours of the morning. Beds left a lot to be desired.
4.1
Rundherum okay, Personal hat sich super gekümmert, alles war da was man auch für einen mehrtägigen Aufenthalt benötigt. Sehr vielfältiges Frühstück, einfach optimal. Saubere und großzügige Zimmer mit Kühlschrank. Perfekt.
4.1
Freundliche Unterkunft in der unmittelbaren Nähe zum Strand. Altstadt mit Auto schnell erreichbar. Kostenfreier Parkplatz vor dem Hotel. Frühstück einfach und ok. Man fährt zum Essen am besten in die historische Altstadt.
Zimmer in der unteren Etage roch etwas feucht, ansonsten aber voll in Ordnung. Am besten nehme man sich ein Zimmer in der oberen Etage.

Property was clean and right across the street the beautiful beach. You can’t get better than this!
4.1
1. The breakfast items (bagels, eggs, sausage and bacon) were very good.
2. The bed was very comfortable.
1. The breakfast space was very tight. There was very little seating. It was uncomfortable.
2. We did not enjoy the private balcony, over looking the ocean, as much as we thought we would. The highway A1A was between us and the ocean. We did not realize when we booked that A1A was going to be so busy and noisy. Very noisy.
3. Didn't try out the heated pool because the bottom was very dirty.
4.1
Lovely location facing the ocean just outside the heart of St. Augustine. Staff at night and in the morning were very helpful.
Small space for eating breakfast.
4.1
The location is really fantastic and the hotel is very cozy.
nothing everything was good
4.1
Wonderful location about 10 minute drive from downtown St. Augustine . Staff were very kind , accommodating and helpful. Delicious baked cookie treats at 5 o’clock everyday . The rooms were clean , comfortable beds , big size fridge to store your drinks and extra snacks , mini keurig coffee machine in the room , as well. Shower was comfortable and hot water was amazing . Nicely renovated property. We had a nice balcony to sit and relax with a glass of wine and friends, after a long day walk at downtown St. Augustine. Will gladly return again . Teli H.
Walls were somewhat thin . Luckily , neighbors were quiet and did not interrupt our sleep .

Cordialidade dos atendentes , o café da manhã excelente !!! Excelente custo benefício , além da vista maravilhosa !!!!
Apenas uma confusão do booking , pois o booking cobrou a mais pela minha estadia , mas o hotel foi excelente !!!
4.1
Nothing, it was a great deception.
Lack of friendliness since we arrived. I had to call the manager to clarify my charges, since they were trying to charge me again for parking and resort fees. Publicity is totally disingenous. It makes no sense to charge a resort fee for a small hotel in the middle of the beach. And Parking? Sounded a lot better than it was. rug was wet just below the A/C. Look to the beach was a sandbar blocking everything (and the beach is across the street). Shower controls were badly installed (very hot where it indicated cold, and viceversa).
4.1
The property is good very clean in front of the beach good staff very helpful and kind with breakfast and you have coffee all day and cookies and popcorn after 5 pm very convenient for hungry children
I would like that they expand a little bid where you get breakfast is so small with only a table inside I would take the wall off where they have the coffee machine do the little salon bigger for people that like to have breakfast inside everything else is perfect
4.1
Location to the beach and to downtown Saint Augustine. Cookies and popcorn served at 5:00 PM.
4.1
The staff and manager are wonderful, However, the property was a big disappointment. False advertising is what this motel is all about. Top ten list??? Seriously? Tiny. Crowded with boxes stacked in corners. Looks like they just moved in yesterday. Musty odor. Sub standard facility and amenities. Cooperative, stand up manager deserves praise. In all honesty, we checked out before we checked in.
Read my answer above. High price for inferior quality.

The breakfast was hot, the beds was very comfortable, the staff was very nice. The hotel was very clean.
The cost of the fees

Clean tidy and good location on the beach
Bit far from central town

Die Aussicht auf das Meer
Der Straßenverkehr, das Frühstück, dass es vorab keine Information darüber gab, dass man die Hunde nicht alleine auf dem Zimmer lassen darf, auch nicht kurz.
4.1
Seriously, just book now! Before booking I honestly thought this place was too good to be true... But it is true. Location is spectacular literally steps from the beach. And it's not a crappy crowded beach covered in trash -- it's beautiful and private and perfectly taken care of. The room was great especially with a little private patio. Checkin was speedy and so friendly even on busy Thanksgiving Eve and they had cookies and popcorn which the kids loved after a long car ride! They were very friendly and accommodating about our dog (big dog too!). And all for less than other hotels in the area. We will absolutely be back!
I wish the extra fees (parking, pet) were disclosed earlier in the checkout process, but, even with those fees it was cheaper than other hotels in the area so it wasn't a big deal.

Room, clean, friendly staff great facility
It was great
4.1
The beds were very comfortable
Misrepresented on Booking.com. Property is an older motel with some renovations done. Our room was advertised as a King Suite but it was a normal room with a couch that blocked the entry into the room. They also charge additional for parking even though the parking lot is part of the property. I received an email from the manager saying they would refund the parking if I posted a good review and sent him a screenshot. No wonder the place is misrepresented!!

Quaint, nice, clean, across from beach, beautiful sunset, friendly staff
All was fine
4.1
Fantastic location along A1A. Hotel had a welcoming staff and peaceful surroundings.
Extra fees for parking at a hotel that is relatively secluded doesn't sit right with me. Room 210 had a comfortable bed but was in need of plumbing repairs for the shower/bath and had a strong humid odor.

Fantastic location, excellent breakfast, friendly atmosphere

Location and amenities
They snuck in a $17 a night parking fee that was never mentioned at the time the reservation was made!

The property was beautiful and we loved being right across the street from the ocean. We also enjoyed the free breakfast.

Great location
Clean , and the extra touches 👍

As our family has done a lot of traveling over the last 45 days due to the passing of my dad, the last thing anyone experiencing such loss wants to deal with is hotel drama. From booking to check-out to location, Ocean sands beach Inn eliminated any hotel issues a family could possibly expect. The facility is beautiful, the beds are incredibly comfortable, the bathrooms are beautiful, and the location- You can’t get much better than right across from the ocean!
The only thing I will change when I book our next stay, is the floor we stay on, and how many nights we stay. I can only imagine how amazing the view is from the balcony above the 1st floor, where the view from the 1st floor is already incredible, and 1 night just wasn’t enough!
4.1
Great location
Very aggressive marketing. The staff was so so
4.1
The location is amazing, quiet and with a private beach just across the street and the rooms are also nice and comfortables
The parking is not included in the rate and the first thing they told me was to book directly with them next time to avoid that rate. This was not my first time in this hotel and even when I can’t say the experience this time was as good, this time the staff was not friendly at all and the comment about booking directly with them, for me, was entirely out of place, mostly cause I was just arriving at the hotel
4.1
The atended charged me $17.03 fot the parking besides what I had paid to booking.com, which I thought was wrong.
4.1
The view from the balcony was beautiful. It was an easy walk across the street to the beach. The room was clean. I was surprised to have a bigger refrigerator with a freezer in the room. There was even a small dining table in the room! Every single staff member we met, from the housekeeping staff to the front desk staff, was exceptionally helpful and nice.
Carpet in the room really needs to be replaced, or at the least shampooed. Microwaves in each room would be appreciated, rather than one per floor.
4.1
The pool was open all night long.
No elevator to the second floor.
