The condo is the perfect size for a couple with 1 or 2 children. The walk to the beach was very short and the property was very clean. I would book this again since it’s priced just right.

This our third time staying at this place. It is always clean and comfortable! You can’t beat the location of being right on the beach plus, it is a private section of the beach so it is never really crowded. The host is wonderful and we will definitely be back again!

Beach Getaway to Atlantic Beach

We stayed for the week, the place was great for me and my partner! The beach access was the best part of the stay, walk right out your door and you’re right there. The place is quiet, great location. Easy access to grocery and the running/walking trail. The place has everything needed to cook in as well which was perfect for these times. We really really enjoyed our stay!!

Spic and span!

Condo was spotless, comfortable, and as advertised. Missed having wifi and no gas grills on property but were not deal breakers for us for our short stay as we were on beach most of the time anyway. Thank you for renting to us! Would stay here again.

This Ocean Sands Efficiency was perfect. Decorated so cute and had everything I could want for my stay at the beach. Clean and neat and the bed was very comfortable. It was very quiet here too. Just a short walk to the beach and in a great location for what ever you want to do on Atlantic Beach. I will for sure stay here again. Thank you making my stay so pleasant.
