We had a wonderful stay—great location, amazing views and access to the beach. The kitchen is well-stocked and the beds were comfortable. Very convenient to paved walking/bike trail, restaurants and shops, yet removed enough to feel quiet. Enjoyed every moment!
White Sands is the perfect place to stay with family. Direct access to the beach, close by grocery stores and plenty of dining options. The AC in this unit worked great as well as everything else. The living room furniture needs to be updated and the dining table is not well suited for small children (in all fairness the photos do show that). Overall cleanliness was good but we did notice the top bed covers do not appear to be regularly cleaned. we would certainly stay hear again if we didn't have small children as dining was difficult.
Beds were comfortable, we never ran out of hot water, and the location and low density condo unit was nice. I would, however, suggest some updated cookware, especially a nicer cookie sheet. Overall, I was very pleased with this unit
Loved the beachfront nature.Had a great time.Only recommendations would be new couch in living room and did get a couple splinters on back deck so might want to look into replacing that deck at some time in future. Finally, a propane grill over charcoal grill would also be a better option, as all the other condos next to us had propane grills. But again overall we had a great time.
Our family stayed at White Sands last week. The townhome was clean, comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We loved the immediate access to the beach and the ability to hose off the sand before re-entering the home. The pre-teen grandkids LOVED having a TV in their bedroom; a real treat for them! The main deck could use a little TLC and a gas grill but otherwise, we were quite pleased with the layout and condition of the home which was plenty spacious for our family of eight. Grandma (me) had the main floor bedroom and private bath to herself (the main floor also has a half bath) while my son, DIL and their 5 children had their privacy upstairs with 2 additional bathrooms. The townhome is also quite soundproof, which was a bonus! The set-up was perfect!

Our over all stay was enjoyable but this property could be so much nicer with some care. The patio furniture is rusty, beach chair under the deck were rusty and unusable. The living room furniture was worn or broken. Some dishes in the kitchen cracked or chipped and worn. The location is great and there is plenty of room, it just needs some new furnishings.

Great stay here for the Blue Angels show. Awesome view off the back deck and easy to get to the beach. It was great for our family gathering in November. And a big shout out to Gopher carts, they picked us up quickly right at our garage and took us wherever we needed to go for dinner and drinks. Highly recommend them also.

Great unit! It was spacious and clean and everything worked as advertised. The location right on the beach cannot be beat! The kitchen has tons of counter space for meal prep and has just about everything you'd need. However, if you are wine drinkers there are only a few very small wine glasses. I imagine they have probably gotten broken over the years and not replaced, just FYI. If I had a suggestion for the owner it would be to invest in a gas grill. All the units around you have one and it's much safer and more convenient than charcoal. Also, somebody could have an accident one day with the charcoal grill and start a massive fire and destroy your wonderful place. Overall we loved our stay at White Sands and would definitely stay in 469 again. We really appreciated the fact that it was pet friendly! Also the management company was great.

we had a great week at the beach and we’re very satisfied with the house. The mattress on the sleeper sofa is kaput. It definitely needs to be replaced.The wheels on the baskets in the dishwasher need to be replaced. Beautiful views from the deck and balcony and easy beach access. The beds were comfortable Beautiful beach views from the living area and the master bedroom. we were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay.

Furniture is old and worn and uncomfortable; very few kitchen supplies, dishes are chipped and broken; bedding is old; wifi did not work, expectations did not meet price
A fantastic place for a family vacation. The condo is situated on the beach with a short walk to the ocean. We loved being there and have many happy memories to be shared through the coming years.
Loved this place, but it might be a bit noisy in the high season as units are very close.
