Beach and Attractions
Located in Main Beach, Ocean Sands provides direct access to patrolled beaches and Broadwater's calm waters. Sea World is minutes away at The Spit, while other theme parks including Dreamworld and Movie World are a short drive from the property.
“This resort strikes me as a particularly good choice for families, given the range of apartment sizes and proximity to Main Beach. Its location on Tedder Avenue promises convenient access to dining and shopping, and the on-site amenities, including indoor and outdoor pools, appeal as welcome extras.”
