Oceanfront, First-Floor Condo with Balcony, Ocean View & Shared Pools/Tennis
New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.
Sit down and take a load off in this beautifully furnished, oceanfront condo at Sands Villa Resort!
Sands Villa 121 is located on the first floor of this gorgeous, oceanfront complex. Imagine yourself floating around the community's outdoor swimming pool in the sparkling summer sun or immersing yourself in the cool, refreshing waters of the indoor pool. Once you and the kids are good and water-logged, head to the playground to run off some energy, try out the basketball and tennis courts, or follow the walkway to the beach for a little fun in the sand.
When it's time to unwind, catch the elevator back to the condo. You can prepare a delicious meal in the fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops or do a little grilling in the courtyard on the gas and charcoal grills. You'll find a dining table with seating for four and additional seating at the counter. After dinner, sit back on the sofa, catch up on some reading or on your favorite TV show on the 42-inch flatscreen TV, or watch the ocean waves from the oceanfront balcony.
When it's time to turn in, the bedrooms include a primary suite with a 32-inch flatscreen TV, an en suite bathroom, and a private oceanfront balcony. The two other bedrooms have 22-inch flatscreen TVs of their own. Additional amenities include a stacked washer/dryer and free WiFi throughout.

Beautiful view,.great location, clean, cozy and comfortable. All the amenities you need.
Wish there was a TV in the master bed but that ended up forcing us to get some much needed rest.
Me and the kids had a great time and the place was just everything. They said it was. Thank you so much.

All you could ask for!
Loved the location of this property with its proximity to the beach and the abundant options for dining and entertainment within a 10 minute drive. This unit had one of the best views on the property and was very cozy with 3 separate rooms for sleeping and a comfy living area to hang with friends or family. Very happy with our decision to stay here!

Comforts of home with an beautiful views
We loved the condo and all the amenities. It felt like home for us. Everything was so clean. It was so nice listening to the ocean while enjoying coffee on the deck then down the courtyard to the beach. Plenty of counter space for meals. The whole property very well maintained. We enjoyed the location of property and surrounding areas. All convenient and connecting. We will definitely be back!

Vacasa is the Place
From the minute you walked in the front door thru the apt to out to the balcony, the apt was awesome. Much attention was taken in the decor and I felt at home. There were even Birthday candles in the drawer and decorations for Memorial Day in the cupboard. The kitchen was amazing. High end products appliances. The directions for checkin/ checkout were very clear and easy to comply with. I was extremely happy to have such.a nice place to stay.

Another lovely stay at Sand Dunes
It's an older property that has lovely landscaping and great views of the dunes and ocean. The pool in beautiful as well as the back lawn. The people we meet there are always so friendly.
Pro: great floor plan, great views, and wifi worked well for remote work. Plenty of plates, cups, utensils and bakeware. A good start up of paper product and tolietries was a nice touch too.
Cons: Washing machine didnt work. Unit is so overstocked there is little storage room. No measuring cup so I had to measure with love when cooking.
Absolutely loved this property. It had everything we wanted, beach view, pool, and short walk to the beach. The property is older, but nice. I will definitely stay here again, but I will bring my own pillows next time.
Nice property with ocean and pool views. Clean when we arrived and perfect for our stay. It seems there are some updates that need to be made inside but it’s obvious other updates like countertops and floors have been updated. Would recommend.

The doors and windows would not open to the ocean side. The entrance door was nearly impossible to lock and unlock. My feet were black from the floors and rugs. The stove was fifthy, the microwave did not work at all

Cute Beach Escape
Sands Villa 323 was exactly as described. Great proximity to the beach, beautiful view from the balcony, quiet and comfortable place, and loved the ample seating. Kitchen had all the essentials to make simple meals. It had a great room off the kitchen that I used as an office for work. Didn’t get a chance to use the indoor or outdoor pool, but they looked awesome.
Our only complaint is with Vacasa. We received several emails prior to the date of our stay, but none detailed check-in or check-out procedures. Unbeknownst to us there was an offsite location to pick-up keys, gate code, etc. This left us scrambling on arrival trying to figure out how to get in. We had to call several numbers before we figured out where to go. Once we received the key, we still didn’t have the key code to be able to enter the condo. Wanted to mention it here, so that future renters might be able to avoid this issue. Also wasn’t clear if we were able to check-out prior to office hours. Called Vacasa support but still wasn’t clear on check-out procedures.
Not withstanding, the house was very clean and we were provided toiletries, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent, which was a nice touch. We would love to stay here again, but just hope Vacasa can fix these procedure problems.

Well done except, bad mattresses and sand coming down from floor above
I'm almost 75, son age 56, grandson 21, granddaughter 24. A Native of the area, been a long time since I've returned, due to spouse's illness and death. I was looking forward to it very much, but the mattresses were not good. Everyone complained, so not a restful time there. I'm a clean freak, so I swept daily, wiped the kitchen down and made sure everything was OK. There must be some type of loose boards or something on the ceiling area, especially noticeable in the kitchen. Sand on the countertops, stove, flooring. Oh, we washed off before entering condo, removing as much sand as possible, plus I swept repeatedly. Everyone says, well there is so much traffic and the mattresses are used repeatedly, well, that's stupid. Mattresses are used repeated in everyone's home, but these things were terrible, mine was hard as a brick, twins also, the full foldout was very uncomfortable, layered comforters on it to make it softer. I guess the owner think by buying "FIRM" the mattress will last longer but I'd recommend a medium firm, not brick hard. So, I enjoyed the beach that God gave us, the restaurants and went home a day early so I could get a decent night's rest. Won't return to this unit. Oh, it was nicely decorated, I left the measuring spoons, as I needed some and bought it and left the coffee filters, large pack
