Location

Ocean Sands Hotel is a superb choice for a beachfront stay in Inishcrone. Guests rave about the location, calling it lovely, excellent and unbeatable. One reviewer even said the location sells it for them. The hotel overlooks the ocean and many rooms have stunning sea views. Guests appreciate the convenience of having a parking garage and not having to worry about their car. The beach is only a stone's throw away, making it perfect for swimming and beach walks. Local bars, cafes and amenities are all within walking distance and some guests love the playground for their little ones. In short, the location is amazing and the views are second to none.

Breakfast

The breakfast experience at Ocean Sands Hotel garnered a mixed review from guests. Some guests complimented the hot breakfast buffet, describing it as great and filling. Others enjoyed the delicious food at reasonable prices with the quick delivery of food to the room being a plus. There were, unfortunately, quite a few complaints about the breakfast not being up to par. Some guests felt that corners were cut, instant coffee being a particular disappointment. The average and old-fashioned breakfast selection left others wanting more and wishing for fresh fruit and muesli. Some guests even paid extra for breakfast but did not receive it. Despite these negative reviews, some found the breakfast experience great with a good choice and variety of food.

Dinner

Ocean Sands Hotel offers a great dinner experience according to guest reviews. Visitors have praised the hotel's fish & chips from the bar, describing them as the best they've ever had. The dinner, bar and reception staff are also excellent and helpful. The restaurant was deemed decent and the food delicious, perfect for a great evening. Although there were some negative comments about the greasiness of a starter and cold dishes, these were far outweighed by the guests' positive comments. The hotel also catered for different food preferences with a plant-based option available on menus. Breakfast and dinner both received high praise from reviewers, making Ocean Sands Hotel a great place to dine during your stay. However, dining with pets may be an issue since visitors couldn't eat outside with their dogs.

Rooms

The rooms at Ocean Sands Hotel have received many positive comments from guests. They have been described as spacious, excellent, comfortable and exceeding expectations. The decor is also nice and modern with comfortable beds, large bedrooms and bathrooms. Many guests have enjoyed their sea view from the room and appreciated having coffee making facilities, a sofa, plasma TV, a walk-in rain shower and a bath. The hotel has been praised for being clean, well-prepared and having modern amenities. However, some guests have complained of minor issues such as poorly sealed attic windows, cracked floor tiles and worn-out couches. Nevertheless, the hotel has been complimented for its convenience, facilities and overall comfort.

Beds

Ocean Sands Hotel offers comfortable and cozy accommodation with some of the comfiest beds according to guest reviews. Despite some minor issues including overpriced rooms and broken beds, guests generally found the rooms comfortable, clean and quiet. The beds at the hotel were highly praised for their comfort and many guests enjoyed a good night's sleep. From the lovely rooms to the very comfy beds, the hotel provides a comfortable stay for its guests.

Cleanliness

Ocean Sands Hotel promises a comfortable, clean and fresh stay. Guests noted that the hotel was spotlessly clean and well-maintained with modern facilities. Rooms were reported to be clean, tidy and spacious, ensuring a comfortable stay. Despite a few minor complaints about cutlery and housekeeping, overall reviews carried a positive sentiment towards the hotel's cleanliness. Some guests did report areas requiring attention like the communal toilets and dusty shelves, but these did not impact the overall experience. The hotel staff should ensure that cleanliness is their top priority and that all areas are kept spotless to provide an exceptional stay for their guests.

Staff

The staff at Ocean Sands Hotel received numerous compliments from happy guests. They were described as friendly, helpful, accommodating and professional. Guests specifically mentioned the reception and housekeeping staff, as well as the bar staff and restaurant wait staff. However, a couple of reviews mentioned some rude and dismissive behavior at the restaurant/bar. Overall, the staff were praised for going above and beyond to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. Even forgetful staff or confused orders did not detract much from the positive experience. The blonde lady at reception was singled out as especially helpful and lovely. The staff were loved by families with kids and those seeking a perfect getaway. Despite difficult conditions, the staff were deemed to be doing a fantastic job.

Beach

The Ocean Sands Hotel boasts a truly unbeatable location right in the center of Inishcrone with easy access to a stunning nearby beach. Guests rave about the convenience of being able to walk straight from the carpark to the shoreline and many note that their rooms had lovely views of the ocean. Whether you're in the mood for a romantic stroll or a refreshing swim, this beach has it all with a little area near the pier that's perfect for safe swimming. Families with little ones will appreciate the hotel's playground, which is located a short distance from the beach. And even though the hotel doesn't have many other amenities, the friendly staff, good food and gorgeous coastal views more than make up for it. Overall, the location of the Ocean Sands Hotel is a standout feature that guests simply can't get enough of.

Parking

The Ocean Sands Hotel offers great parking options, including ample spaces and a private garage. Guests appreciated being able to leave their car safely at the hotel while exploring the town. The underground car park is especially convenient, although some guests had trouble finding it as it is not well signed. While the stairwell to the car park could use a bit of sprucing up, overall parking was easy and available. Additionally, the hotel's location is perfect with direct access to the beach and the added bonus of free parking.

Family

If you're travelling with your furry friends and seeking a dog-friendly hotel, Ocean Sands Hotel is the place to be. Not only is it child-friendly, but it's also a great bonus that you can bring your small dog with you. Speaking of children, the hotel has a playground at the back for the little ones and the family rooms are perfect for families with toddlers. However, some guests found that the children's play area was disappointing. Additionally, if you or your family members have mobility challenges or require a wheelchair, unfortunately, the hotel does not have ramps from the outside to the beach. The rooms are generally great, but some found them not spacious enough for a family room, or the fact that there's only one lift might be challenging when travelling with kids and a buggy. Nevertheless, the staff at the hotel are fantastic with kids and even recognised and made a fuss of one guest's 2-year-old son. Finally, a previous guest managed to arrange for a room with separate access to the main hotel when bringing their dog. Overall, Ocean Sands Hotel is a perfect place for a family holiday and worth a return visit.
