Hidden fees and decline of property maintenance and cleanliness.

Liked:Watch out for hidden fees. Their website clearly states " free parking" and they charged us 22.00 per day. I demanded a refund and once I provided a picture of their own website, I finally received a refund for the parking charge. Also upon checking in, I was told my credit card was declined. When I booked online, I chose the option to " pay at property ". When I called my bank, I was told a temporary hold was put on my card because Ocean Sands made several attempts to "manually charge" my card earlier that day. Thankfully, the bank suspected something suspicious and put a hold on my card. We returned to this property because we enjoyed our stay here last year. Unfortunately, we were extremely disappointed this time. The property appears to be run down. The carpet in our room was so dirty with several stains. The heated pool was not heated. Guest laundry was completely out of service. We paid for the upgraded ocean view only to discover major road construction going on. We mentioned that to the front desk and he lied to us saying they just started the construction 2 days ago. Turns out this construction has been and will continue to be long term. They certainly can not control this situation but I would hope that they would reduce the cost by a fraction. New this year is a virtual front dest staff member. It is uncomfortable knowing that he sits there and listens to all conversations. A couple of times he just started talking to us, interrupting a conversation he had no need to be a part of. We will not be returning and we will no longer recommend this property to anyone else.

Horrible view

Liked:The room was dirty. I paid for an ocean view but there was construction happening the whole time I was there. The view was terrible. The walls are very thin and I could hear everything my neighbors were saying. The couple next to me ended up leaving early because of their experience. I will say the beach access is nice. It was very peaceful and quiet besides when the construction was going on behind me.

Very disappointing experience. I travel every 3 weeks and I do not recommend this hotel.

Liked:Road construction in front of hotel. We purchased a second floor ocean view room at a premium price, no note from hotel that this was happening during our stay. Also, when I received the invoice at checkout $20.00 per day parking. This hotel is not really located near anything so how else would you get to the hotel. The parking fee I thought was for truck RV and boat towing vehicles. They do not ask you to acknowledge the parking fee. Unfortunately the rooms are over advertised. All the goodies mentioned in the ad like robes and chocolates there's a fee for. The 50 item breakfast is not even close. There's 30 rooms and they're seating at breakfast for probably 15 people. A little too much I would never stay at this hotel I don't recommend it. Spend a few dollars more somewhere else and enjoy yourself better.
