🏖Oceanside DUNESCAPE Studio🦀Direct Access to Secluded Beach🚴WiFi🏄Pool

This quiet Oceanside Getaway is one of the newest in Atlantic Beach! Located just 50 steps from the beach, enjoy peaceful strolls, shelling, sunbathing, and sunset walks on our Pristine Secluded Beach. Hear the crashing of the waves and gaze out at the North Carolina Dunes while sitting on your couch. Magnificent Ocean & Sunset Views are available from our Gazebos and balconies. There is also a Coastal Bike path for jogging, bike rides, and walking. Watch Sun, Surf & Sand Vacation Rentals presents Ocean Sands on YT.

Our guests' safety and comfort are our number one priority and the space is professionally cleaned and thoroughly sanitized before your stay. There is no "shared air" as there is no enclosed lobby and the unit has an individual wall mounted a/c. This is a SMOKE-FREE Oceanside Complex. The aerial photo shows how close you will stay to the beach as well as the location of your space within the building.

The interior boasts a full bed, twin size sofa sleeper, a kitchenette w/ appliances, flat screen Smart TV, and WiFi. Perfect for couples, singles, and families with small children. An Outdoor Pool, 3 Charcoal BBQ Grills, 2 Gazebos, and a fish cleaning station are available to guests.

This is a beachfront complex but your unit faces the road side of the complex and does NOT have a Direct Ocean View. Have the convenience of driving right up and parking right in front of your unit! You can enjoy Ocean views from the wraparound public balcony on the 2nd floor, and from the two Gazebos overlooking the Ocean (as shown in the photos).

There is no daily maid service but towel swap outs can be arranged for $10 upon request (paid directly to the cleaning service). There is a coin operated laundry room on site for longer stay guests.

Secure Complimentary WiFi is provided for your convenience. Many local eateries/shops are within walking distance. Dollar General is across the street and Food Lion is a mile away. Additional restaurants, a movie theater, and a shopping center are a short drive away.

Perfect getaway for a romantic weekend, or a family retreat ...watch dolphins splash from the oceanside gazebo ... don’t miss the sunset over the ocean waves .... stroll the sandy beach ... build a sandcastle with the kids ... surf cast for one of the many varieties of fish in our ocean waters ... watch surfers hang ten.... Jet-ski or Parasail ... take a jog, or ride your bike on the new Atlantic Beach bike trail ... feel the wind through your hair on the new Cape Lookout ferry... check out the wild Spanish ponies of Shackleford Banks.... take the kids to the new Atlantic Beach recreation park... and don't forget the fantastic NC Aquarium!

Excellent birthday weekend
Adult daughter and I go to beach every year for my birthday. We usually go to Carolina Beach or Kure, but stayed here one other time but a different room. Loved the location, reasonable price, and quiet enjoyment. Will stay here again!

My girls and I had a wonderful stay. The unit was as described! The beach was steps away and had everything we needed. One suggestion, would be to have a broom so guests could sweep up after ourselves..I felt so bad for leaving stuff on the ground. I will definitely come here again if we come to the area!

Great getaway!
Property was very clean and organized. They made very good use of the space and had everything we could need to have a comfortable stay. The check-in process was easy and they even text us to let us know that the room was ready a little early. I would recommend!

We would stay here again. It was clean and as described. I would not try to have more than two people stay there, even if the others were kids because of the size and limited storage but it was fine for my husband and I.

Good deal, nicely renovated.
First the good. Cute and compact. Great deal. Very clean, nice pool with plenty of lounge chairs and clean. Awesome beach chairs provided. All necessities provided. Even make up removal wipes. Pier and Molly’s bar that are both advertised on the description are closed and inaccessible. Bed is very bad and noisy. Refrigerator did not keep items cold.

Beautiful Beach Bungalow
Great little studio, just as advertised! Perfect size for 1-2 people. I used to live here years ago and came back for a quick visit so this place was perfect for just me. Super easy check-in process. Very clean quarters. Awesome amenities—loved the use of the beach chair and having a pool on site! I would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

Perfect little beach getaway!
My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ocean Sands. Checkin was made easy by the email info- we got in late in the night, & the lockbox made it all seamless, thankfully 😅. We had two questions throughout our stay which were answered quickly through Venmo messages with the property manager. The owner even stopped by to make sure everything was resolved. The location is awesome for beach access, and tons of cool things to do are within driving distance- we had a very windy afternoon & went to the aquarium which was full of great exhibits & knowledgeable volunteers. Also, the room was well equipped with new beach chairs, new keurig style coffee maker, & plenty of cookware to make basic meals. We hope to come back soon! 🏖

Clean & equiped with all we needed. Just a short walk to beach...although the sand is quite deep!!
The place was clean & we’ll equiped & with lots of friendly folk. The pool needs some repair & perhaps supply umbrellas for pool area. The beach was perfect & within a short walk away. There’s a stretch of deep sand which is hard for the old & very young to navigate!! We didn’t get our instructional email until AFTER we had arrived & it made for a very frustrating 2 hours! And there was no one around to help us as the office is permanently closed. We finally figured out that the door was open & the keys were inside!! We really didn’t need the code to the lock box to get in. The owner or manager, I’m not sure which, did finally contact us & tried to make it right, which we appreciated. After that, everything went well. We found this to be a very nice place to stay!!

Wonderful
It was such a great relaxing spot on the beach. Everything was provided that you could think of, just bring your Family, Food, Clothes and beach toys. Our little family had such a wonderful time. We have stayed at Ocean Sands before the renovation and this was a breath of fresh air. We definitely will be booking again next year to have our annual family vacation. Can not beat it at all! Love Atlantic Beach and this little condo. If I could change one thing it would be the bed size, not used to a full size bed anymore. :)

Cozy, great price, great location
Great price for a great location. Overall the unit looked and felt clean. Based on other reviews we brought a small folding table which came in very handy. There is a clothesline in the shower but a drying rack would be useful too. No closet space but lots of drawers and cabinets to stash things away. Definitely a good size for two people, might be a little crowded with more. Bed is just full sized so may be small for a larger couple. Very convenient to Atlantic Beach and Morehead City for shopping and restaurants while retaining that secluded pristine beach feel.
