Ocean Sands Beach Boutique Inn - Kill Devil Hills - Outer Banks - Stay By the Beach

"Great place to stay with only a short walk to the beach. Chose this hotel because it had good reviews and glad we did! The room and facilities were nicely updated, very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again. They have some really neat amenities, many that you will not find at other hotels like the games, personal saunas, each floor has a filtered water and ice machine as well which is really convenient. Had a great stay! Breakfast options are limited but adequate - cereal, yogurt instant oatmeal and grits, fresh fruit and some other basics, but no waffles or proteins like you would normally find at some places. This was not an issue for us though as what they had was good, plus the cookies and popcorn in the afternoon make up for it! Loved this place!"

"5/5 Stars 🌟 – Affordable and Packed with Perks! ​This is a two-star hotel, but it easily earns 5 stars for the sheer value and unique perks. The "free breakfast" is pretty basic—just cereal, Honey Buns, and Hostess donuts—and there are communal microwaves on each floor rather than in the rooms. However, the extras completely make up for it! They offer awesome features like arcade games (including Pac-Man), free popcorn, and fresh cookies at night. ​The room came stocked with the usual shampoo and soap, but they also thoughtfully provide free sunscreen, plus complimentary razors and combs if you forget yours. The location is unbeatable: a 5-minute walk to the beach and an easy walk to CVS and Wings. Aside from the slightly weird virtual check-in process, this place was an absolute steal for the price. Highly recommend if you want an affordable, fun beach stay!"

"Wonderful experience staying here. They have lots of cute features such as a palm tree shower outside near the pool, lots of free toys available on the property like connect 4 and cornhole. Friendly and helpful staff, lovely rooms. The only noteworthy thing i would have to say is that there are no elevators, so if you rely upon one, you may have to stay on the first floor. Other than that, I highly recommend this hotel!!"
