The view was amazing. The people where nice the tiki bar had good food and drinks. The property owner was quick to answer all my questions. Would definitely stay again.

.Best part was the sun deck and private beach. Pool was too small for the size of property. Elevators were a nightmare first day but improved after that. Unit itself was small but nice. Two problems were the air conditioning did not adequately cool the entire unit. Could use room darkening curtains in both bedrooms. Also bedrooms doors locked when we didn’t want them to and we had difficulty opening them.

This property is absolutely wonderful. Being on the 19th floor, standing on the balcony, or just simply looking out through the big ocean-facing windows – what a spectacular sight, gazing upon the ocean from this height, day in and day out. The rooms are spacious. All the appliances work great. The location of Golden Sands is great in relation to the nearby grocery stores, and all the other attractions around the area. It was great having a key code for unlocking the door, instead of fumbling about and remembering to keep track of a key card, like most other places are. The kitchen cabinet doors need a little bit of tightening here and there, but that's about it. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for us to live for a bit. It was truly spectacular!

Our stay in #1913 in June, 2022 was a refreshing experience. Owner, Albert, was efficient with communications and provided a clean and tidy unit...he even presented us with a welcome package. We have been to Golden Sands on 4 different occasions and this was by far the best kept unit. I should also mention that the view, from the master, is absolutely breathtaking.

Great place to stay with the family!

Great place! Very clean and nice amenities. Hosts is quick to respond and super helpful!

We had a wonderful time in the Golden Sands unit! The property owner was super helpful and responsive!! We enjoyed the location as it was so near restaurants, grocery stores and shops!! Ocean front view was terrific!! We look forward to going again! Thank you

Sunrise from the 19th. Floor Awesome! Very Clean and comfortable sofa. Top Grade kitchen appliances. Only 1 wine glass. Great Shower. Easy check in. Highly recommend.

Very nice property - enjoyed our stay

This condo was in excellent condition and clean. Amenities at the Golden Sands are impressive. Even on a rainy day there are activities in the building and out and about OC. Beds were comfy, kitchen was well equipped and communications with the owner were outstanding.. Hope to return.

Amazing view of the ocean!

Clean with updated amenities. Tremendous beach views. Enjoyed the pool and beach. Lacked basic items such as cooking pots, pans, cutting boards. Elevator wait times on the weekend could be up to 20 minutes. Parking spot was often blocked by people arriving and leaving or by food delivery services.

We loved this place and would stay again. Our summer OC vacation was my wife and I, our two little ones (3&1) our friends and there adult child; all were comfortable and we never felt crowded. Awesome kitchen, love the Viking range and stove. Easy to find, easy to access, solid parking, and very easy to communicate with the host.

We stayed for a friend’s bachelorette weekend. Super clean, plenty of room for the 7 of us. Balcony was a hit, with the view! I would definitely recommend!

The condo was exactly as pictured, nice size bedrooms, we enjoyed the balcony and the beach view. Had to deal directly with the owner for a maintenance issue. He was very friendly, yet professional and did not interrupt our stay. Would definitely stay again.☺️

This place has the mose amazing views! Building amenities are top notch.

Perfect location on the beach with many amenities. Everything we needed was provided in the condo. Parking was an extra perk. Exactly what our family of four needed for the week.

Unfortunately there was rain on the second day . The beautiful view from the property really helped ease the dreary day. Access to the beach and stores is so convenient. Parking in the garage was a little tricky but conveniently next to entrance. The property was very clean and had a pleasant smell. I highly recommend.

Condo was clean, bathrooms and kitchen recently updated, the view was amazing!! The only down side like other reviewers stated was the lock on the door was very hard to open and took awhile to get in.

We had a great time! Excellent and timely communication with the owner. Reserved indoor parking and easy check-in. Master bedroom has a great view and is right next to the water. Highly recommend.

This condo is amazing! The owners are very friendly, provided great communication and take pride in ownership of their condo. The condo itself was clean, had updated appliances and the view was terrific. The pictures listed are exactly as expected upon arrival! Staff are always smiling and happy to help. There is so much to do at Golden Sands. Tiki bar, cafe, arcade, outdoor sports, outdoor pools, top floor indoor pool, adult game room, etc. ! Lastly, there is assigned parking, so you will never lose your parking spot! We are going to be returning and taking our children with us next time. Highly recommend this rental! Don't hesitate to book!!

Beds were extremely uncomfortable

This room had great views ocean front, and bayside! Plenty of room room a large family. Pools were awesome!

The locks were very difficult to lock and unlock spent 10 minutes fighting with the door every time I needed to leave or get in! sending and receiving keys through the mail is a pain. Also didn’t know I had to bring sheets and towels until after booking! $40 resort fee when checking in. Lots of things not listed that would have been a deal breaker for me!

The condo was great. We had 2 adults and 4 teenagers. Bedrooms are large with plenty of closet space. Master bedroom and balcony view is amazing. Updated bathrooms and kitchen which was well stocked with utensils and appliances. Great location with bus stop out front. Owner was very accommodating and responded quickly. Would definitely go back and stay longer.

My wife and I were there the week of 5/16/21. The condo is clean, comfortable and well supplied. And the view from the 19th floor is great. Except be aware that you have to take all of your linens, blankets, towels, both bath towels and dish towels, and disposables. This information was not in the listing and I was made aware of it from the property manger after booking. Also, we were not aware the property amenities were not yet open. Such as the indoor and outdoor pools, the game room, the tiki bar and the shops and eateries. Apparently these facilities open after Memorial Day. This was probably an oversight on my part for not checking. This wasn't a problem, simply an inconvenience. We spent the warm days on the beach and the cooler windy days walking on the OC boardwalk (a few miles south) and sightseeing.

We had an amazing relaxing couples weekend. The views and the private balcony are gorgeous and just added to the experience. The kitchen and bathrooms seem to be newly renovated. My only suggestion would be a different option for keys to enter. Having to mail keys back and forth is a little hassle and the keys do not easily open the door. I couldn’t unlock or lock the door at all-I depended on my husband to do it. Perhaps a keyless entry option would be easier for all involved. The master closet would seem cleaner if it was painted darker like the walls of the room-many nicks that made it feel less appealing. I would also suggest updating the information book with newer options or remove the older dated stuff. We got excited to have ideas to look through in the book, but then realized the events were all dated from 2012-2015. This is all minor and I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. Some of the pictures listed are older but the virtual tour provides a nice updated look at exactly what the condo looks like.

I had to book my stay days before arriving due to a last minute scheduled cheerleading competition. Mr. Lee was very patience and accommodating with all the needs of my stay. He had continual communication with me throughout the booking process and during our stay. It was much cheaper and roomier than a hotel room. Mr. Lee also allowed us a much later check out for a small fee. The unit was a great size and allowed us to spread out. It was clean and provided every amenity we needed. Having breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sunny beach was a plus. I would definitely consider renting from Mr. Lee and staying at his Golden Sands Condo again.

It was a great experience

The building had good covid guidelines for elevators, though some other guests did not care, we only went up 2 at a time ourselves. Very comfortable condo and looking forward to renting again! Waking up to sunrise was amazing! Had good communication with owner! Let them know about few things and had good response! Loved it! And felt safe during these crazy times!

Took a quick getaway with my husband and two young children to OC. The condo had great wide views of the ocean and perfect sized balcony. Kitchen and bathrooms are updated and everything worked great. The main part of the condo was very clean but we did notice that the bedrooms, especially under the beds, were extremely dirty (empty water bottles, etc) so just something for the owner to address with the cleaning company going forward. And the master bedroom mattress is as hard as a rock so bring your own padding if you desire something more comfortable. Albert was very responsive and easy to reach if needed.

Very tasteful and well supplied condo. All I can think of adding is light blocking shades for second bedroom and a few wine glasses. I also would have liked to know ahead of time that it was on the 19th floor.
