Just what I needed!

The host was very nice and quick to get back to me and answer any questions I had. I liked the studio style room. It was just myself and my dog so we didn’t need much space. But for others that I have noticed complain about the size, it clearly states that it is 300 square feet. That means small. But anyhoo. There was a humidifier in the unit, which was nice, but it needed to be dumped about twice a day. I found out the hard way by stepping in the water that had ran out into the floor during the night in the dark lol. The kitchen cabinets and drawer were stocked with enough things so if you cook you don’t need to buy anything. The shower had great water pressure. We had a great time here even though we were here for a memorial for my mom. This was my first time in Atlantic Beach and I loved the area. We will be back for sure!!!

Way too small for what we expected

We were disappointed as soon as we walked in to the room. It is very small and would have been impossible space wise for more than 2 people. There is zero closet space! We had brought clothes for goin out but had to leave them hung up in our car because there wasn’t anywhere in the room to hang them up. The floor board air ran constantly which caused the room to be very humid in the room. Drying a pool towel in the room was impossible (rules stated you couldn’t hang towels outside). This place needs a designated smoking area going out to the main road or walking all the way to the beach just to smoke is ridiculous and at night not safe.

I am VERY disappointed in the communication of this VRBO owner. They accused me of bringing my dog when i absolutely did not and are trying to charge my card for this. The manager of the property has already confirmed with them that i didn’t have a dog with me and they will not reverse the charge on my card. I left this place in immaculate condition and hoped to come back but i will not be returning to this property. Be careful who you give your card info to.

Great but Not bad-back friendly

Me and my teen daughter came here for a short birthday getaway. This is a bottom floor studio. Everything was exactly as described. Cable TV, great parking, and crazy clean. If you have a good back, this place is perfect - five starts for sure. Why four stars: There is a futon with a mattress that weighs about 80 pounds which is nearly impossible to lay down or stand back up for two ladies, one a small teen and the other an adult with a bad back. I considered just leaving it down during our stay but aside from some saddle style stools under the kitchen table, there is no where else to sit. When sitting on the futon although the mattress is plush (which I truly appreciated) there is little too no lumbar support. Very glad to have brought a large fluffy pillow from home. Next there is a humidifier that needs to be emptied twice a day. Again, this is was great because the room stayed low humidity which I also appreciated but it’s on the ground annnd full of water. Soo bending over low to pick it up full of water was doable but not easy. The mattress was pleasantly a mix of support and cushion. Maybe a green tea mattress or some sort of memory foam knock off. It didn’t hurt my lower back to sleep in which was surprising but it is shoved in a tiny alcove with zero space either side. I had to sit and scoot back which was a long, slow and painful process. Someone with out back issues would have no problem but for me it was challenging. The final piece is the bathroom. The shower was great - step in with great water pressure. The vanity was high enough to lean on which was also cool. The toilet was even a handicapped toilet which is higher than normal toilets..great for a bad back .. But it was literally two feet from the wall! This was the thing that really sucked. Trying to stand and complete your business with a wall directly in front of you if you have a hard time standing up right is just crazy. I would suggest turning the toilet to the left at an angle to allow more room for standing. There are no pictures of the toilet placement so I feel it’s important to add that here. No one on this earth wants to have their clothes all rubbing up against the front a hotel toilet - no matter how clean. The toilet is that one place every one questions how clean it actually is even when it appears spotless. Great stay. Everything was great. Probably wouldn’t stay here again because of toilet and bed placement and that crazy heavy futon. Thank you

Just right!

This place was just right for me! I visited Atlantic Beach, NC for a summer vacation, near the end of the busy season there. I stayed in this little studio apartment for the week. It was right on the corner of the building. To get to the beach, I just came out my door, walked around the side of the building, across the backyard, up a few steps into the pavilion, and down a few steps on the other side. And the beach was right there! I love the beach, and I enjoyed many hours with my feet in the soft sand, listening to the rolling waves. I appreciated the outdoor shower when I came off the beach, too, to use before heading back into my room. The room was small, but it was just enough space for me. There is no closet space, but I didn’t really need a closet for myself just being there for the week. The shower had hot water and good pressure. I was glad to have a fridge and freezer, my own AC unit, and a couple of ceiling fans to keep air moving. There was also a dehumidifier, which I emptied twice a day, finding it almost full each time I dumped it! There’s a lot of moisture in the air by the sea. I did not find the bed to be very comfortable, but that’s probably because I am most comfortable in my own bed at home! HA! ;) I would definitely visit Atlantic Beach and stay at Ocean Sands again sometime! Thank you! :)

There is a large green lawn area, so if they get tired of playing on the beach, they can kick the soccer ball, play horseshoes, or whatever activity sparks their interest. And the new Atlantic Beach Park is within walking distance.
