My family and I have stayed at Ocean Sands many times over the past six years. We have just stayed on the weekends and for weeks at a time and we love it. The staff is awesome and the price is right. I love the beach because it's very quite. However crossing the road to get to the beach is a little bit of a pain when you have small children. ...

stayed here w. some other family members. The rooms could stand to be updated and there was a lot of moisture in the rooms. The pool was nice and heated. I loved the proximity to the beach, it was a private beach and never crowded at all. The biggest negative I would say was crossing the road to get to the beach. Its a fairly busy road and people ...

Will not return..
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/17/09
The only good thing about this hotel was the view... Will not return, place is an old building.. Could of been a lot more cleaner.. Will spend an extra $70.00 a night to stay somewhere else..
Very nice place to stay, loved the beach (not busy) and close to St Augustine. Great rates and very friendly staff. Would stay again if ever in the area.

Location is great. Ponte Vedra Beach is only about 10 minutes away and St. Augustine is only about the same. Very clean and quiet. A great value and close to everything.

Very busy highway to cross for the beach
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/16/08
The picture are decieving as far as access to the beach. If you have children it is a very busy highway to cross. Then you have to climb up a ramp with several steps. The motel itself was not bad and their little breakfast was nice.
We stayed at the Ocean Sands on Dec 9th. The motel is right on A1A and across A1A from the beach. The beach is sandy, but, also has a large number of shells that haven't totally been ground into sand yet. They will have to do a beach renourishment soon, but, that's the government's job. The beach was great for walking.
The motel ...

Nice location
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/07/07
Nice location with private beach area...great for a family vacation...the breakfast was not very well prepared....the egg patties/sausage patties are frozen...you have to microwave them yourself...keep in mind there is one microwave in the breakfast area and each egg/sausage pattie requires 3-5 mintues..other than the breakfast the stay was nice and the staff was very friendly...would stay again.
