DO NOT TRUST HOST

booked 2 months in advance, only to be told by facility while I was checking in that they no longer honor the host’s reservations as it is a time share and it’s against policy. I called up the host and was told I would see a refund and get a call back. Neither had happened.

BEWARE - Do not book through this owner

The property of Ocean Sands is fine. Nice place. I’ve stayed here before. Unfortunately, this trip I booked through VRBO and owner of the unit Peter. After driving several hours I get there only to find that the resort no longer recognize reservations made through Peter and is fully booked. I won’t get into the reasons but Ocean Sands is NOT at fault. At first Peter is angry when I call to relate I’m stranded with no place to stay and was apologetic. After calling around, Peter is unable to obtain us lodging. Ocean Sands also called around to try and find availability. Peter did refund our money but our planned for weekend getaway was ruined. This whole incident was avoidable by the owner Peter. Beware before you book through this owner.

This was the perfect spot to relax and hardly have to leave for food or drink with an on site restaurant. No breakfast but it is just across the street and excellent food!

Older resort on the boardwalk

This is resort that has been sold as timeshares. It is showing it's age. The place is kept clean. There was no reservation made at the resort for our stay. The owner didn't let the property know we where coming. We had printed out the email sent out by the owner and where able to check in using that. In the description of the rental it says smoking is okay on the balcony that is not the case.the bed was not very comfortable. We will look for some place else next time we go to Virginia Beach

Check In Nightmare

The owner of the property did not do their job and notify the resort that we were coming. We waited 45 minutes to check in. Called Property owner twice (voice mailbox full) and texted him four times. We never got a reply. Daniel, who worked the front desk, finally got authorization from the GM to put us in a unit. Daniel was great. My wife was not happy and neither was I. If you rent property there from Owner, Peter, Beware.

Labor Day trip

Everything was good and as expected. The mattress on the queen bed and pull out need replaced badly. Probably the worst I’ve ever slept on anywhere. The floors were dirty. Had to keep shoes on the whole time. Otherwise, all was well! I would rebook if the mattresses are replaced.

Communication was terrible. Had to be moved to non ocean front, not even beach front, to a completely different facility because of over booking. (Booked 8 months prior) Was supposed to be credited $150 for that and all the trouble and have yet to see it.

Nice off-season stay at the beach

Unit is small, but clean and efficient. Enjoyed the pool; great beach and boardwalk, of course. Good restaurants versus near by, but many are not open in February. Staff at the resort were friendly and helpful. (For some reason our single 8-day vrbo booking was 3 separate reservations in their system, which took some extra effort.) Overall, just what we were looking for.

Misleading listing and Poor communication

I booked and travelled to this Oceanfront property from out of town. After showing up to check in to the property, the office manager tells me that there are no rooms left in their building for the night. Confused, I come to find out that the host had left me a message 1 hour before I arrived mentioning that I had been moved to a sister property 5 minutes down the road due to "water damage". After arriving to the sister property and talking to the office manager there, I find out that I was given a "marina view" room with no balcony. This second property was lacking the amenities that were one of the few reasons I booked the listing initially. During the entire evening, I called the host multiple times and received no return communication. Office management from the first property mentioned that this host has miscommunicated with them in the past. Thankfully, I was able to I work with Vrbo support to get different accommodations for the remainder of my trip.

Comfort of home, while away from home!

The whole experience was nice. The booking, correspondence with owner, and the check in process were all top notch. A+ all the way! The unit was very clean with comfy beds, and televisions in each room. The kitchen had everything we needed on those days that we opted to stay in and cook. And the bath room was spacious, well lit, and had a jetted tub. I wouldn't hesitate to book with this owner again, and will refer all my friends/family. Thanks again, for helping to make this much needed vacation a nice one!
