My wife and I celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary at Ocean Sands Beach Inn last weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The hotel is quintessential OLD FLORIDA. This charming hotel was across from the Vilano Beach with views of the wetlands area towards the back of the building. The room was very clean as was the rest of the... More

The website pics are a bit deceiving. Waited over an hour to check in, and the cleaning was still substandard, I wouldn't use the coffee pot as it looked like it had stains from years of use. Breakfast wasn't even close to what was pictured, the waffle iron was crusted over and the toaster didn't really toast. The eggs were... More

Hello, we are sorry that we did not meet your high standards.We would have refunded your room for that night if you would have informed about the issues right away. It would be to late for a refund, after spending an entire night. Because we DO want all of our guest to be happy while they are visiting us. Thank... More

What a wonderful time my husband and I had. Our 2nd story room was just as described and we had a great ocean view from our balcony. It was in a residential area, so the beach was nice and quiet....lots of shells to collect. The shells made it kind of hard to walk along the beach, but we toughed it... More

Very casual little beach hotel. It is clean and pretty quiet given it is on the side of the road. Good value for money and little pool in the back. Go for the double king rooms! More

This is a gorgeous small hotel on a quiet, beautiful stretch of beach. I see at least one reviewer on here who was very harsh about this hotel, so I guess it isn't for everyone. There are no big hotels anywhere near it, and it blends into the landscape. It is difficult to find at night, but once you've been... More

I have never written a bad review, but I am writing this review to save some headaches for someone else. First of all,when we arrived, I was very disappointed because the hotel looked nothing like the deceiving pictures, both inside and out. The reason that we picked this hotel was because we thought it was beachfront, however the very busy... More

This is a great spot to stay. Being a privately owned hotel it is clean, and friendly. The staff are as helpful as can be. The hot breakfast was way better than a continental breakfast with scrambled eggs, sausage, eggs, toast as well as the cereal and danishes you usually get. This small hotel was well worth the money and... More
