Ocean Sands Hotel

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Ocean Sands Hotel and Spa. I cannot praise the entire team highly enough. From the very beginning, Jennifer went above and beyond to make the planning process smooth and stress-free. Orla the wedding coordinater couldnt recommend her highly enough, her warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference and set the tone for what became the most magical day. Every detail was taken care of with such attention and precision. The hospitality was second to none, despite getting married during a storm a member of staff ensured the red carpet remained intact for our entrance.Our guests are still talking about how friendly and attentive the staff were throughout the entire day. The food was absolutely exceptional—beautifully presented and delicious. Our guests are still raving over the beef!! We’re especially grateful for the support we received in the lead-up to the big day. A special thanks in particular to Jennifer and Orla who could not have done enough for us both in the lead up to the wedding and on the day itself. Thank you to everyone at The Ocean Sands Hotel and Spa for helping us create memories we’ll cherish forever. You truly made our wedding day unforgettable.

Our wedding day at the Ocean Sands Hotel was absolutely brilliant! From the moment we started planning, the staff went above and beyond to cater to our every need, making us feel completely at ease. Everything ran smoothly, and the food was fantastic – we received so much positive feedback from our guests. A huge hats off to everyone at the hotel for making our day so special!

The ocean sands were incredible to work with from start to finish
Orla is an amazing credit to the venue amd she kept the day running so smooth
Food was incredible everyone still talks about how fantastic it was
Value for money beyond all venues we couldn’t have asked for a better day from start to finish wish we could do it all again

From the very beginning of our planning process, we felt the warmth and welcome the staff here have to offer. From our first sit down meeting with Jennifer we knew this was the right choice for us. I had a large crowd travelling from Tipperary and from the get go I knew this location and hotel was perfect, the Seaside view and vibes and excellent accommodation to suit. No small detail with planning our wedding was too big or small, in fact they were encouraged! Jennifer and all of the staff the whole duration but especially the week and day of the wedding were at our beck and call and were happy to make any last minute changes we needed. Our day turned out to be rainy and windy but the staff at the ocean sands had all of our plan B changes perfectly in place for this case. We had so many compliments from our guests of how excellent the staff were on the day and how accommodating they were to any food allergies or needs of specific guests were catered for. The decor, the organisation, the meals and the service and buffet at the end of the evening were all top class.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better hotel to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, everything was handled so professionally and seamlessly, which made the whole experience completely stress-free.

Our guests are still raving about the food — it was absolutely outstanding and such a highlight of the day. The service was impeccable, and every detail was executed perfectly.

A special mention has to go to Jennifer, Orla, and the entire team, who were simply amazing. They went above and beyond for us and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Their care, attention to detail, and genuine warmth made all the difference.

Thank you for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable. We couldn’t recommend this hotel highly enough to any couple planning their wedding.

We cannot Thank the Ocean Sands Hotel enough. They truly went above and beyond for us. From the moment we arrived, we felt so cared for and supported. The service was incredible, the food was absolutely amazing, and the layout was more beautiful than we ever imagined. Every little detail was perfect, and it allowed us to fully enjoy every moment without a worry. We are so grateful to the entire team for making our wedding day so special—it was genuinely the best day of our lives.

Jennifer and the team in the Ocean Sands were just amazing. They all worked so hard to ensure that we all had a brilliant wedding from start to finish.
No request was too much for Jennifer, and her calming influence was so reassuring. The bar staff were also brilliant. The food was delicious. Our guests were all treated exceptionally well and all had an absolute ball. We'll be back again for anniversaries and celebrations in the future!

We had the most incredible day in Ocean Sands for our wedding.
From the very beginning Jennifer and Orla couldn't do enough for us. They made everything so easy and was very responsive if we had any questions. All the staff were friendly and approachable and gave a great service. We would highly recommend them for a wedding and the location is beautiful.

We had our wedding reception at the Ocean Sands Hotel in Enniscrone on the 2nd of May and it was nothing short of perfect. From the very beginning, Jennifer and Orla were absolutely incredible — so helpful, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure our day was exactly how we wanted it to be.

Every detail was taken care of with such care and attention, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The venue looked stunning, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was full of joy as we celebrated with our family and friends.

It was a day we’ll never forget, and we’re so grateful to the team at Ocean Sands for helping us create such special memories. If you're looking for a wedding venue that’s warm, welcoming, and goes above and beyond — this is it!

We had the most amazing and special day celebrating our wedding at the Ocean Sands. Jennifer and Orla were so responsive to us in the lead up to the wedding that on the day we had nothing left to worry about. The day itself went so well, the food was fab and the service was unmatched. If anything went wrong then we know nothing about it. Thanks so much guys 🥰

Picking the Ocean Sands as our Wedding Venue was the best decision we could have made. From the first day we met Jennifer, the stress was taken from us. She went above and beyond throughout our wedding journey and it always felt like she just knew exactly what we wanted. She has a great eye for detail and ensured everything about the venue looked great on the day. Her expertise guided us in our planning and ensured our day ran smoothly.
The location of the hotel is ideal. Located a 2 minute walk from the beach, the views and picture opportunities are amazing.
One big thing at a wedding is the food and so many of our guests commented on how great the food was at our wedding. From finger food to the main meal, it was all delicious.
Finally, all the staff in the Ocean Sands made our experience. They always treated us so kindly everytime we visited and made us feel so welcome.
If you are looking for your venue, I would highly consider the Ocean Sands. I would love to be back at the start of our journey again!

We Had our wedding here 3rd of April 2025 and I can't thank all the ocean sands wedding team and staff enough for a lovely two days, all our guests had nothing but great things to say about the venue ye were so helpful and welcoming to us all and all the food you provided us was so delicious 🤩 would highly recommend having your wedding here! 👌we were lucky enough to get a beautiful sunny day and the view was just amazing and your right beside the stunning beach too it's great for breathtaking photos ❤️

I could not praise the ocean sands Hotel that will do justice to the fairy tale wedding they gave me. Jennifer knew exactly my ideas and made it come to life. My guests praised the food highly and the service. They could not do enough to make our day so special. Thank you

We got married in the ocean sands February 2025. Everything was perfect, we felt such a warm welcome when we came to view the hotel, and on the day nothing disappointed us. The staff the food the view all perfect. We would choose the Ocean Sands again and again

We honestly couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day. From start to finish, everything was just magical, and that's all thanks to Saoirse and her incredible team. Saoirse was an absolute gem—she was attentive, organized and always went the extra mile to ensure that everything ran smoothly. Her dedication and care made our day stress-free, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to be behind the scenes. A special mention has to go to Adam, who was a true superstar on the night. Although there was a storm and a power outage, the hotel went above and beyond to ensure our celebration continued without a hitch. They handled everything so well and made us feel completely at ease, even in the face of unexpected challenges. The hotel staff truly outdid themselves, and their efforts did not go unnoticed.

We cannot recommend the hotel and Saoirse enough. It was a day we will never forget, filled with the most incredible memories. Thank you, Saoirse and the entire team, for making our wedding day absolutely unforgettable.

We had such a great day from start to finish. Saoirse was absolutely brilliant and couldn’t do enough for us!! Leading up to the day we also dealt with Jennifer and Arthur who were also both amazing! We could not recommend the Ocean Sands enough as they went above and beyond for us!

Had our wedding ceremony & reception in the Ocean Sands back in July, Service was unbelievable all the way through from Olivia,Arthur and all the team from the planning to the wedding day itself so helpful and accommodating, Highly recommend the ocean sands for your wedding day beautiful hotel and great service through out.

Tori & Shane

Absolutely fantastic team in the ocean sands, went above and beyond for us and our families. Could not recommend enough. Especially Olivia, a lovely person who’s brilliant at her job.

We had an amazing experience working with The Ocean Sands. The hotel staff were so accommodating and friendly to all our wedding guests. Olivia helped us every step of the way and guided us throughout the process. Our day was seamless and the staff did amazing work behind the scenes. Arthur was so kind and helpful, he made us feel so at ease and he even got a special chair with side on it for our grandmother to sit on at the reception. I couldn’t recommend the hotel enough!

Can not fault the ocean sands at all. Service was absolutely top notch, food was amazing. They were extremely professional and from start to finish they didn’t cause us an ounce of stress. We had an indoor ceremony and just using what they supplied in decoration and flowers They really made an amazing job of it. We kept it simple and it was better than we ever imagined . Olivia Arthur Darragh and all the team couldn’t have done a better job.

The Ocean sands is the hotel of dreams. The welcoming and joyous staff really put you at ease, especially Olivia, Arther, Adam and Michelin star chef Marcin.
We were blown away by the attention to detail on the wedding day and on the lead up.
The views of the ocean were exquisite from our reception room, the beautiful Atlantic room.
The food was 5 star Michelin.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the team at the ocean sands hotel.

Myself and my wife Mary got married in the Ocean Sands. The view speaks for itself but it is really the staff that make it such a special venue. When we were looking for a wedding venue what swayed us to pick the Ocean Sands was meeting with Olivia and walking around the hotel. All of the staff were so geniunely friendly and welcoming. The hotel always had a ring of laughter in the air. It was such a relaxing place that had a remarkable ability to have such high standards of professionalism without being overly rigid and formal. The Ocean Sands really made our wedding special and we cannot thank the staff enough! We will be planning to come back every year on our anniversary because of the lasting impression and beautiful memories the hotel staff created for us.

We had most incredible day in fantastic venue with professional caring staff. They know their job and do it so well, they are like friends ,so attentive to all , deserve every award they have received . it was like home away from home with added comfort and service.

It has been a month since my husband and I got married in the Ocean Sands Hotel. I have many childhood memories from Enniscrone so always had my heart set on this location. The Ocean Sands Hotel always appealed to us with it's idyllic location on the sea shore and those stunning views. We met with Jennifer in January 2023, the time and attention we got that evening was second to none- we were made to feel so special and had a fabulous afternoon tea while we chatted. We knew after this day that we wanted to celebrate our wedding reception here. We met Olivia in the following months and she was such an optimistic & jolly breath of fresh air who made us feel so at ease and special too! Nothing was too much trouble, she had lots of fun suggestions for us and really listened to us and what kind of day we envisaged. We got a really good wedding package and the standard was so high. Olivia made the whole process seamless and the communication was brilliant whenever we had a question. A special thank you to Artur for his efficency, advice and attention to detail also and to Darragh also, always on hand to lend a helping hand. The guests all commented on the food (the most mouth-watering beef), the efficient service, and the friendliness of the staff. If we could get married again we would choose the Ocean Sands time and time again. We had the best day and truly can't believe its over!

From the very first day of planning our wedding at the Ocean Sands the staff there were just amazing to deal with. Olivia was our planner and she couldnt do enough for us. From our first meeting with her we felt completly relaxed and the whole experience was stress free and enjoyable. She couldnt do enough for us and nothing was a problem. We stayed at the the hotel the night before the wedding which we thoroughly enjoyed and even that night the staff there looked after us and our guests so well. Myself and my bridal party had an apartment for the morning of the wedding and it was beautiful we had a balcony and had amazing views of the beach, it was so bright and spacious. The wedding day itself couldnt of went any better. We had our ceremony there aswel which was just beautiful. The food was fabulous and was plentiful from the drinks reception right through until the evening buffet and even at the residents bar there was still food been brought out us. All our guests mentioned how good the food was. Every member of staff there are so professional and they are just amazing at there jobs. We had our own children there and lots of our nieces and nephews and on the day of the wedding the kids were able to use the pebbles playroom and they had the best day. We honestly had the best day of our lives with the Ocean Sands and we couldnt recommend it enough. Thank you to Olivia, Arthur and all the team xx

We couldn't praise Ocean Sands Hotel enough, they went above and beyond. Nothing was too much to ask, anything of concern to us was fixed or answered so quickly which is such a relief when planning a wedding. Olivia was like a counsellor, friend, wedding planner and overall bundle of joy to deal with. The food was incredible, the hotel was decked out therefore we hadn't to buy anything for that, the location was beyond perfect for our sunny pictures at the ocean and amazing scenery.
A lot of people that stayed for our wedding had the added bonus of starting their day with a beach walk.
Breakfast was A1, everyone catered for, great choice and such a clean hotel.
Memories for life because of this amazing hotel.. big big thank you from my husband and I.
Mr. And Mrs Burke

Where do begin..
The moment we met Olivia and team, they were so helpful.
Once our day was getting closer, from meal tasting to checking out they went above and beyond for us.
Food was amazing,
Staff are so great beyond words.
Service was 100%.
We had a little 9month old and they were as good her aswell.
Overall, a wonderful experience and a relaxed one too.
Totally recommend the ocean sands hotel for a wedding .
Just amazing location aswell!!

We booked our wedding in the gorgeous Ocean Sands Hotel with four months notice, this was only possible because of the unbelievable staff and wedding team at Ocean Sands Hotel.
We had the best day of our lives. This hotel is so special, the location is dreamy, the food is 5 star, sensational, the civil ceremony room & reception room are unbeliveably pretty. The design & thought gone into these rooms is stunning, such a romantic & peaceful setting. Olivia, our wedding co-ordinator is a force of nature/angel, her calmness, advice, help, & personality blew us away. She loves her job & it shows. She and her amazing team: Authur, Darragh, Steven, Marcin, Linda to name only a few our outstanding at their jobs, I feel all went above & beyond to help us plan our day & deliver every detail seamlessly.
Jennifer who we initially met to book our wedding, she ensured us it could be done, and thankfully we believed her & I genuinely feel no other hotel could have made our day so special. Two beach-loving Sligo people got their dream wedding by the seaside so thank you all staff. We'll never forget how you treated us, our guests, and made planning a wedding effortless thanks to you xx
Claire & Terence

We couldnt of made a better choice then ocean sands for our special day!
From start to finish everything was organised down to a T with zero stress involved.
Along the way any query we had the wedding team was only to happy to help whether it be a phone call or email we always had a quick response.
Our day was the absolute best day without a single hiccup the team are just amazing!
The food cannot be faulted it was all fab.
The set up of the room itself the entrance to the function room and even down to the cake stand display was just stunning they think of every little detail.
We can't thank everyone in Ocean Sands enough for making our day so special.

We couldn't have picked a better place for our wedding reception, from the day we went to view the ocean sands we were greeted with smiles, laughter and the best service and this has continued the hole way throughout the planning and prep. Olivia and Arthur went above and beyond for us in each and every way possible, always there to lend a helping hand, and took over everything that needs to be done. Our day ran so smoothly no stress because we knew we had the best team sorting it all for us... The food is just absolutely amazing, the service is out of this world. You are treated like a royalty on the best day of your life. We could never thank all the staff enough for all they done for us. Not to forget Steven who was with us at the residence bar he went above and beyond for us all aswell. My dream wedding became reality and that was all thanks to the ocean sands for doing this for us, I told them what I wanted and they done exactly that and more. Olivia was always at the other end of the phone to help me and reassure me the day will be perfect and it sure was that. We had the best day every thanks to all at the oceans sands. We can't wait to go back again for a stay and spa weekend.

If you are thinking of getting married, do not dream of looking anywhere but the Ocean Sands Hotel and Spa. We had an intimate wedding and I can honestly say I have not one single regret in choosing this hotel. We wanted a private dining room rather than a big ball room due to our party size, and the hotel accommodated us in the The Atlantic Room. When we walked into it on our
Wedding Day, I remember asking Olivia to give me a minute as I could not believe how beautifully they decorated the room for us. It took my breath away. The food was to die for. So much so, that none of our guests had any space for wedding cake after. Even the hot food that was served later that night was barely touched. I sampled it and couldn't decide if that, or the wedding meal was nicer. Olivia treated us like royalty that day and she made sure that not only was she at our disposal should we need anything, but Adam and Julian also. Fantastic team and I honestly mean that, so bubbly and fun. They could not help enough.
I have one regret from our wedding day. The day passed too quickly and we didn't get to enjoy the hotel and staff for longer. We already cannot wait to return for a couple of nights for our anniversary and enjoy the hotel,the food and the hospitality all over again.

Thank you so much for everything. Definitely a day we will cherish forever thanks to your hard work.

Olivia is fabulous to deal with, and great craic. I really enjoyed working with her planning our day. The food was unreal. The venue and views are fab, and they even have a spa. All staff were so friendly, that includes bar, housekeeping, restaurant and spa.

All of the wedding team and wider staff of the Ocean Sands Hotel were a complete pleasure to deal with in the organising, lead-up to the big day itself and afterwards too. We were delighted with the quality of service received. We made some suggestions on improving elements of the function room and when we chatted to the team, they took the feedback and went above and beyond the suggestions that we made.

The food was superb and all of our guests had so many nice things to say about the staff, the food and the nice friendly atmosphere in the venue. The genuine kindness and interest of staff stood out and really sets this hotel apart from others. This creates a really personal feeling and adds to the many warm memories of our wedding weekend.

We couldn't recommend the Ocean Sands enough to any couples looking at wedding venues in the Sligo and Mayo areas. The setting being so close to the beach is great especially when the weather is in a good mood. We are very glad we made the decision to work with the Ocean Sands.

Thanks Ocean Sands team for helping to make our wedding so special to us.

The Ocean Sands Hotel was the perfect location for us and our family and friends. We have two boys , 1 with special needs and they were always welcomed from the beginning with Olivia, who is a godsend until the very end of our stay after our wedding. Olivia and Arthur are true professionals and always made us feel at home at the Ocean Sands no matter when we visited. The day went without a hitch, we had our ceremony there as well which was so relaxed and exactly what we wanted thanks to Enda Harte. Our photography team, Precious memories, used the hotel to their advantage as it ideally located and has beautiful scenery all around as well as easy access to the beach. As I always wanted to leave from home an hour away I sent the dresses up ahead in another car fro myself and bridemsaids. Olivia and Arthur made sure a room was ready and set aside for us to accommodate my request. We ran late due to issues outside our control but both Olivia, Arthur and Enda said it was no problem at all. With having kids it can be difficult to find a place that we were all happy, comfortable and relaxed in. With the play area downstairs in the hotel that is supervised when requested meant that parents of kids at the wedding could relax and some also booked a babysitter for a few hours on the night. The food has always been spectacular from the first time we went in January 2019 right through to the wedding day August 2023. There was never a fault and those that had special dietary requirements said it was amazing food. We can not forget to mention the legends that are the night staff that stayed with us until the very early morning on both nights. Want to give a big shout out to Trish, Adam, Pat, Steven and Evan as they treated us like royalty. We made the decision to have our day 2 at the ocean sands as well and it did not disappoint. Darragh, booked a great band that kept the guests going and the drink was flowing from the night staff. The night staff were great and helped guests not staying in the hotel to get back to their accommodation. To be honest we could not fault the ocean sands hotel in anyway. Reception always replied when we had requests about rooms or needed to change anything. All the staff are friendly and will say hello and help if needed. The hotel is also dog friendly so it meant we could bring our boy for pictures on the day. He is more of an outdoor dog so he stayed with Karen from tails and trails who got him groomed, dressed and brought to the hotel for the ceremony and pictures for the day. The rooms were very comfortable and everyone was so happy with their little holiday in Enniscrone.

We had our Wedding Day in July 2023. We cannot compliment the Ocean Sands Hotel enough. The venue itself is beautiful with fabulous views and the function room was decorated beautifully on the day. The food is fantastic, the staff are all exceptional, they are so friendly and professional. We had lots of compliments from our guests on how well the day went. A special mention to Olivia, Jennifer, Arthur and Darragh who all looked after us so well.

There are not enough good things I can say about Olivia & all the team at the Ocean Sands.
They were a dream to work with from day one. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they honoured every request I asked for.
The service & food is exceptional (best beef in Ireland!) & the every person who works there is so kind and helpful.
To everyone at the ocean sands, we cannot thank you enough
Our guest have told us it was the best wedding they were ever at.
Thank you for making all our dreams come true.
Danielle & Kevin Mc Goldrick xxxx

Olivia went above and beyond for us to ensure that we were looked after and had the most memorable wedding day. The service we received from Olivia and the Ocean Sands wedding team during the build-up to our special day and on the day was phenomenal, we could not have asked for more-Everything from start to finish was exceptional. Our friends, families and neighbours are still talking about the fantastic service, delicious food and beautiful location- all down to yourselves. We just wanted to say a big Thank You to you all and we are so happy that we chose The Ocean Sands for our special day- a day we will never forget. We would highly recommend The Ocean Sands to any couple looking for a venue for their special day- Outstanding is the only word for this wedding team.

This is the perfect hotel for anyone who dreams of a beach wedding but also wants to stay in Ireland! We ran away to the west with a few of our nearest and dearest for an intimate beach wedding and Olivia and Arthur helped make our dreams come true.

We would like to say a massive thank you to Olivia, Arthur and Jennifer and all our wedding team! Each one of them were extremely helpful,professional and kind throughout all our wedding planning. We had the most amazing time. The food was fabulous as usual and there is absolutely nothing we would change. All our guests were delighted and really enjoyed the wedding. Thank you all so so much! We would highly recommend the Ocean Sands hotel.

Just want to say a big thanks to you all... especially Olivia, Arthur and Steven.

Everything was fantastic,And to your catering crew! It was the best food I've had at a wedding not the usual slop you get thrown out in some weddings..
I've heard back from quite a few saying the same.. they are a credit to the hotel!

Also the decor you laid out was fantastic

Thanks for going out of your way with all the little bits and pieces that you done throughout the process things we hadn't even thought about.
We were blessed with the weather but even with out the sun the day wouldn't have been any different!

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the ocean sands for a second

I honestly can't write enough good things about our experience with The Ocean Sands, I really can't. From our very first meeting with Olivia and Darragh and our taster night with Artur and working through all the room bookings with Linda - every single one of them made us feel so supported and important, and no matter how many questions we asked or room revisions we did they were always so patient and courteous to deal with. Olivia and her team are simply wonderful and amazing to see how they all work together as a team to make sure the wedding day went off smoothly. We were looked after so well on the day ensuring we had everything we needed from start to finish - by every member of staff in the hotel, even the next day when we went to the Spa we had such a lovely warm welcome and a fantastic experience. I almost wish we could do it all again (hopefully will never have to obviously!). The value of all the little extras that are included to make sure the ceremony room and dinner tables are lovely is wonderful also - the added options like the candy cart etc is so convenient to have too - and even with some third party suppliers coming in the team at the Ocean Sands made all this a breeze to reducing any potential stress we would have with all the logistics etc. The location of the hotel also is stunning, meaning come rain or shine you will have such wonderful views outside. Our guests have raved about the food and service non stop since the day - our expectations were not only met, but utterly exceeded in every way possible.

We had our humanist wedding and reception in the Ocean Sands Hotel in April and the wedding team were amazing. From the first day we went to chat and view the hotel, right up to the wedding day itself, the team were so helpful and accommodating for everything we needed. They were always available during the wedding planning and did most of the organising around the day for us! The food was unbelievable- all of the guests commented on how good it was. The location by the sea is wonderful (even though we got a wet and windy day, it was still beautiful!).
I absolutely would recommend the Ocean Sands Hotel to any couple planning their wedding.
Thanks so much Olivia, Jennifer, Darragh, Arthur, Amy and all the staff in the hotel.

We recently just got married here at the Ocean Sand Hotel and it was amazing. We had both Olivia and Amy helping us organise our day and they was both incredible. Olivia has continued to help us with things since the wedding which just shows how dedicated she is to her job. We knew instantly when viewing the hotel and meeting Olivia this is where we wanted to get married. All the staff here are amazing when Olivia or Amy wasn't available somebody else was and they made it so easy for us to plan from England. Arthur and Steven was great, everyone constantly came over to us saying how lovely and helpful they was as well as how incredible the food was by their chef! We stayed the night after and had drinks in the bar and the hotel had booked live music which everyone really enjoyed. They really can't do enough for you. Our guest arrived really early due to flights on the Sunday before the wedding and the staff raced around making sure they had food and the rooms were ready as quickly as possible for them. All our guest have already asked us to do a reunion here next year as they enjoyed it so much! We would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of getting married here, it was the best experience and it all went so well we can't thank Olivia, the wedding team and the hotel staff anymore.

We had the most wonderful day at the Ocean Sands Hotel, Olivia, Arthur and Darragh were the best hosts we could ever have asked for. The whole planning process was made so simple (considering we live in Belfast) nothing was a problem, the whole weekend was incredible. We along with our guests were looked after so well every step of the way. The food was unbelievable on the day, so amazing quality all.our guests have complemented us on our day saying it was the best wedding ever.
We can not fault anything and will highly recommend the Ocean Sands to everyone we know.
Thanks again to Olivia and all the team....team Ocean sands were amazing.
Gr?inne & Donal

We recently had our Civil ceremony and reception in the Ocean Sands and words cannot express how happy we were with the whole experience. From the first day when we went to view it as a potential venue to the day of our wedding we were treated like royalty. We had a small wedding with our immediate family but the size didn't matter, we were made to feel so special. Olivia was always on hand to help with all the finer details. The room where the ceremony was held overlooked the beach and Olivia and her team had it beautifully decorated. On the day of the wedding Arthur ensured that everything ran smoothly in the dining room. The food was so amazing our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed it. One of our guests was a celiac and there was a lovely selection of gluten free food for her. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Ocean Sands as the ideal wedding venue, it's in a fantastic location and perfect for those outdoor photos, amazing staff and fabulous food.

All the staff went above and beyond! I can't thank them all enough! Fabulous food and amazing service and attention to detail! Amy and Olivia were a pleasure to deal with! Highly recommend!

From the first time meeting Olivia and then Amy we always felt we were being looked after and any question or query we had was always answered promptly. The day itself was just amazing everything was so beautifully put together the staff were amazing and we honestly couldn't have had a better day. We couldn't thank them enough for they really made our special day the best day ever.

From our first meeting with Olivia and Amy it was a done deal. Every step through our big day was discussed and sorted within two meetings. we had guest from overseas that months later still cannot believe the level of service that was provided .
Feedback from all guests was incredibly positive!
We had our ceremony in the OceanSands it was beautifully decorated . Followed by our Photo shoot on the beach which is 100 yards away. Then on to the festivities the did not disappoint. There is a play room for the children which can be supervised by a staff member.
The staff were very friendly and made our day run smoothly.

I cannot recommend this hotel Highly enough!

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Ocean Sands Hotel last October, from the very first meeting we had with Olivia during a wedding fair we knew this was the place for us. Even during uncertain times with covid Olivia was always checking in and updating us. The wedding function room is stunning and beautifully decorated with windows overlooking the beach and the beautiful garden area, we had our family photos taken out there. Amy and the team made our wedding day run smoothly and couldn't do enough for us. So many compliments on the fantastic food and service from all our guests. We would highly recommend the Ocean Sands Hotel for your special occasions.

where do i begin. We had our wedding day on 29th of August this year. Its was the best day of our lives. I can't thank Olivia and the team enough. From start to finish nothing was a problem for Olivia she is just amazing at what she does and she makes everything so easy and care free . Due to pandemic this was the third time lucky for us but Olivia made us feel so excited and happy every single time the date changed she is truly one in a million. Every single thing about our day was perfect we got married at the back of the hotel looking over the ocean and the set up was so beautiful we couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful and the food and service was just out of this world my friend and family are already looking to return for sunday dinner. For future brides and grooms we could not recommend this hotel and Olivia enough if we could give a million stars we would. It was the best day ever and we can not thank you guys enough. We look forward to many more trips in the future.
Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts.
The new Mr and Mrs Hick

We got married in April and had our reception in the beautiful Ocean Sands Hotel. We decided to go ahead with our original date regardless of numbers. I first emailed Olivia when I realised that the venue we had booked would not be reopening until summer due to Covid. We were so lucky that the Ocean Sands were able to host us. Olivia was always very efficient to deal with and extremely helpful to us in arranging everything. She went out of her way to ensure that we had the most amazing wedding day with our immediate family despite all of the restrictions. We cannot recommend this venue enough - amazing staff, beautiful views and delicious food. Thank you so much for everything!!

We had our wedding in ocean sands on 5th feb 21. We can not praise , thank , recommend the hotel and the staff enough. Olivia the wedding planner what can we say.... she went above and beyond for us as much as she would if we were her own family. When I say shes a star.... words dont do this girl justice ....... amazing! And we will never forget her kindness and her name and hotel are often mentioned in our house with fond memories of a beautiful day. Covoid could not stop love !

Had our small wedding in the Ocean Sands a few weeks ago, due to Covid we had to change our plans and Olivia did everything she could to accommodate us. Everything from the decor to the food was amazing.A big thank you to Olivia and all the team for making our day so special

After having to change our venue with 3 weeks to go I contacted Olivia with the hope that our date would be free. Thankfully it was. Olivia went above and beyond for us, couldnt have been more helpful. She organised everything for us so all we had to do was show up. Her professionalism and kindness are second to none. The staff were all a delight to deal with.The food deserves a review of it's own, absolutely delicious.Due to covid restrictions our guests numbers were 25, however the way in which the function room was decorated was perfect for an intimate gathering all the while adhering to social distancing.We will never be able to thank Olivia enough.Our day was perfect all thanks to Olivia and the wonderful staff at the Ocean Sands Hotel.

THIS HOTEL WAS FANTASTIC. OLIVIA AND THE TEAM WERE BRILLIANT.

What can I say our wedding day was everything and more than we ever could have dreamed of. The team in the Ocean Sands were amazing from the very first viewing to the finest of detail. Olivia was amazing and is amazing at her job. her enthusiasm, commitment and breath of fresh air to the planning made our wedding day one I will always remember with the fondest memories. On the wedding day itself the whole team in the Ocean Sands gave our whole wedding party and guests the best of service so much so that 4 months later people are still talking about the amazing day and experience some had considering it was their first visit ever to Enniscrone. The food was out of this world and something that could not be faulted from the canapés to the late night nibbles we were amazed. I honestly could not recommend this hotel enough for how amazing they were in making sure our wedding day was a day we will forever remember with the fondest of memories.

We had our wedding reception here in September 2019.

The venue is in a stunning location, so close to the beach.
Ideal for beach shots and fabulous views from all the function/reception rooms.

The staff, food and service were all perfect.

Olivia was there every step of the way to make the process as simple as possible.

We had an amazing day and would recommend the venue and Olivia to anyone ????

Best hotel in the West for fab views of the Wild Atlantic way! & also dog friendly so the bride & grooms best friend could join them on their day! We had best wedding in Sept. Everything was perfect...food and service were top notch! Thanks to Olivia for helping us plan our wedding day- she is amazing, open to whatever we wanted on the day and always at hand prior during and after wedding day. Also have to say we had lot of guests from Cork and Kerry...they all raved about the views from function room, the amazing service from hotel staff & being so close to amazing enniscrone beach..all for amazing value and hard to get anywhere else along wild Atlantic way!

For me and my partner the Ocean Sands Hotel was the ideal venue for us, once we met with Olivia she put us both as ease taking us through the finer details and preparation for our big day.

From the arrival reception to the dinner reception Olivia was on hand for anything that was needed and also took myself and himself down to see the room and get us some alone time together as we were still greeting guests ???????? also my little 2.5 year old wouldn't eat any sweets down the candy cart my fault Olivia sent a member of staff to the nearest shop to buy some flakes for her Thank You

All my guests are still taking about the good food, service and attention to detail provided by Olivia and staff and the ocean Sands Hotel

The bridal room was newly renovated and the evening view from the balcony overlooking the beach stunning and perfect for sunset pictures

Olivia and staff will go above and beyond they did for us and we had the best day and would do it all again in the same venue ??

My husband and I had our wedding reception in the Ocean Sands Hotel in August 2019. It was the perfect wedding venue for us and ticked all the boxes. We had been planning our wedding for over a year and Olivia the wedding coordinator was so helpful during that time. Any questions we had were answered very quickly and efficiently. On the day itself all of the staff at the hotel provided a great service and the day ran so smoothly. Olivia and her team were ever so helpful and we could not fault anything. The food was also great and there were lots of compliments about the meal. We would have no hesitation in recommending the hotel as a fabulous wedding venue!!

Olivia and her team were outstanding and made the day flow easily.We were kept up to date at every move or what was going on and the team were so professional and helpful.They went above and beyond to facilitate us and never failed at any request.The feedback was 100% back from the guests who loved the venue and praised the quality of the food and service

We had the pleasure of celebrating our big day in the Ocean Sands Hotel and all I can say is it was Amazing from start to finish!! I booked my wedding pretty much last minute with 5 months to go as my other venue fell through and Olivia was a dream so calming and motivating when I was feeling stressed! Nothing was too much even having a vegan menu (there was meat too lol) that we got to choose! Myself and the bridal party stayed here the night before as I was getting ready there because we had our ceremony there and we had a ball! Olivia was amazing even supplying us with some sneaky tequilas the morning of to settle the nerves! We had our dog with us at the ceremony and it was no problem at all! Food was amazing, bar was stocked with every drink that was asked for and nothing was too much! The guests loved the rooms and the breakfast the next morning! The bridal suite is absolutely fabulous!! We cannot wait to return for our 1st anniversary and to see the lovely Olivia again she is a joy! Xx

Brilliant services,Olivia she's very good.We had no stress planning the wedding always willing to help,always there when we need her.i will recommend Ocean Sands management and staff were brilliant.Best place for anyone's big day.

We got married recently and had our wedding reception at The Ocean Sands Hotel. We could not have asked for a better venue to celebrate our wedding day. The Ocean Sands Hotel is like a home away from home for us, the hotel is family friendly and is the perfect location for those all important photographs on your wedding day. The service and quality of the food was absolutely exceptional. Olivia was a pleasure to deal with, her professionalism and reliability is second to none. The Ocean Sands Hotel is a 5 Star venue to celebrate your wedding day.

We truly can't recommend this hotel enough. We have been coming here for a few years and naturally when we got engaged it was our first port of call. From the moment we booked our appointment with Olivia the hotel's absolutely AMAZING wedding coordinator we just instantly knew this was the perfect venue for our wedding by the sea.
We had our magical day on the 14th of June this year and we can honestly say that it was the best day of our lives. The entire Ocean Sands management and staff couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming to us. Nothing was too much trouble and with the very talented, professional and caring Olivia we created the most beautiful wedding. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was and how excellent the service was.
We had a civil ceremony there which was just stunning, the work that Olivia and staff put in was seen from the get go.. It was just a fairy tale setting with the beautiful Atlantic to be seen in the back drop. This hotel is just a home from home, any phone call or email to them was just like contacting a friend and catching up, from the ever helpful Olivia to the wonderful Lauren and the great team on reception they were all just a pleasure to deal with.
Weddings can be a little stressful but we can definitely say not in our case. We wouldn't change a thing about our day. The professionalism, hospitality and timeliness of our day was second to none.
We look forward to spending many more breaks away in our favourite hotel.
If you're a newly engaged couple and wondering where to have a very personal and special day then The Ocean Sands Hotel in Enniscrone is the place to go. You won't find a more beautiful venue for you and your guests.

Thank you so much for everything Ocean Sands Hotel, you made our dreams into reality.

Olivia took care of everything for us. From arranging rooms the night before the wedding, keeping our nerves a bay we didn't have to worry about a thing. I would highly recommend Olivia and the ocean sands hotel to anyone thinking of gettin married

We recently got married in The Ocean Sands hotel and cannot recommend Olivia and her team highly enough.
From the moment we started planning our wedding nothing was too much of an ask. Olivia was always there to answer our questions and help in any way possible.
On the day of our wedding, everything ran smoothly, the function room looked wonderful and the food was perfect!

We had a lot of guests who travelled from England for the weekend and they all left with fantastic memories of Enniscrone and the wonderful service they recieved at The Ocean Sands.

The newly renovated Presidential Suite looks beautiful as well.

We are so grateful to Olivia and her team for all their hard work in ensuring we had the most amazing day!

Thank you!
Gr?inne & Adam

Great place to have your wedding reception.Wedding Coordinator was brilliant and she was very helpful.staff where great too.I would recommend this place to anyone that is getting married.

We had a wonderful day in the Ocean Sands for our wedding. Olivia couldn't have been more helpful from the first time we met, any queries were answered promptly and she also recommended various suppliers to us. The food on the day was fabulous and the room was beautifully decorated for both the ceremony and reception. All our guests had a wonderful day. We couldn't be any more grateful to Olivia & the staff for making our day perfect. We would highly recommend this hotel for a wedding.

The Ocean Sands Hotel was the perfect venue for our big day. The function room was decorated beautifully, the food was fantastic and pictures on Enniscrone beach just behind the hotel were amazing. We had so many compliments on how smoothly the day went, it was all down to the lovely Olivia and her team. We had an amazing day and would highly recommend it to any couples thinking of holding their special day there.

Fantastic wedding venue. Stunning views. Rooms very big and clean. Staff were friendly and helpful at all times and service was great. Food was of a very high standard, so tasty! Would definitely return for a future stay!

Lovely environment, staff very helpful. Dietary requirements catered for without any fuss. Good quality food. Perfect setting for a wedding.

My wife and I got married in the Ocean Sands in November 2018. Everything was perfect, the staff were more than accmodatong, food was 100%, nothing was said wrong about it. The views overlooking the beach are amazing.

The Ocean Sands Hotel was the most Incredible venue for our wedding that we could have asked for. It was more than we had ever expected it to be. If I could give it a 100 star review I would! All of the staff were second to none and Olivia the wedding consultant is the most helpful and warm person, nothing was too much for her and I can honestly say without her our day wouldn't have been as wonderful as it was. She is a complete professional and also treats your vision with absolute respect and enthusiasm. She was always delighted to see us and couldn't wait to bring our vision to life! The venue speaks for itself, it is pure magic from top to bottom and the rooms and standard of cleanliness are excellent. The ballroom is just magical and the view from this hotel is stunning! We ate there several times in the lead up to the big day and each and every time the food and table service blew us away, after our wedding our guests kept commenting on how great the food and service was which was so important for us and a major reason we chose this venue. The value for money is also unbelieveable, our guests raved that the room rate was one of the lowest they had seen for such a great venue which meant most of our guests stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed the entire weekend with us. When we were settling the bill after our wedding day my husband and I got a wonderful shock to discover how very reasonable the final bill was. For the service we had I honestly would've paid double, the value for money is incredible. We genuinely believe this venue is The best place to get married, we honestly have nothing bad or even remotely negative to say about it. My advice to any future bride and groom would be to go and see this place. Talk to Olivia. Have a meal there. Maybe even stay the night and walk the beach in the morning. I can guarantee you won't be anything but amazed. You mught even just fall in love and never want to leave. We're looking forward to our next trip back already!

Olivia and the team really were excellent on the day it all came together so beautifully. The venue is over looking enniscrone beach amazing views and fantastic for photos.
Highly recommend

We can not recommend the ocean sands enough. Olivia is just out of this world and made everything so easy for us. We had the best day thanks to Olivia everything went smooth.

Absolutely couldn't recommend the Ocean Sands Hotel enough for a wedding. Olivia is so professional, friendly, efficient, flexible and accommodating. The food was amazing on the day, they accommodated us totally with our menu choices aswell. Any extras we wanted included wasn't a problem. All the staff were really friendly and made us feel appreciated from the meal tasting to the wedding. We were so happy with everything and they treated us so well. They exceeded expections on the day.

Olivia our wedding co-ordinator was absolutely amazing, she along with the staff of the Ocean Sands Hotel were so helpful with every detail and made our Farming Wedding theme simply superbly wonderful. The food is always 5 star all the way. We have celebrated family christenings and communions receptions in the Ocean Sands and will continue to do so due to the unwavering quality in service, hospitality and food. Totally recommend, thanks Olivia and staff for our fabulous wedding day X

What an amazing hotel, it's like home from home ??
My husband and myself got married on 2 June and our reception was at the ocean sands, this hotel has no faults when it comes to weddings, they honestly could not do enough for us,
Olivia was ? AMAZING ? this lady deserves an award for what she does, even up to the morning before our wedding we had people drop out due to sickness and bereavements, and after emailing Olivia that morning, she relaxed the situation and assured us not to worry, We are both self employed so to try and meet Olivia during the day was a no go for us, but again this was not a problem, you name the time and Olivia was there to meet you.

As for the hotel, the views are spectacular, I really wanted an abroad wedding but marrying a farmer it wasn't going to happen but this hotel made me feel just like we were away, as we ate our dinner we were looking straight out on to the beach,
All of the staff were absolutely amazing, we had one guest who was staying across the road from the hotel and her baby wasn't settled so she left the meal with the baby, a member of staff followed with her meal to assure she got her meal, now we have been to many a wedding but I have never seen any hotel do that,
All I can say is if your thinking about this hotel for your wedding, book it cause you will not get the service or quality anywhere else

Thanks to everyone in the hotel that made our day so special for us

We had our wedding in the Ocean Sands Hotel on 29th September 2017. From the very first time we met with our wedding planner, we knew we had made the best decision for our wedding. She listened to us and took note of every detail, from meeting to meeting she was able to remind us of the smallest detail, even if we had forgotten. We had several meetings and of course were given the afternoon for the menu tasting. The Bridal Suite was huge with a balcony. On the big day, they took care of everything. There was not one single thing that went wrong. I know to some people this must sound like an exaggeration but there's not one single thing bad or negative that I can say. The staff are professional but friendly, the hotel is immaculate, the food is superb. To Linda and Olivia - huge thanks. If we were to do it all over again, we wouldn't change a single thing.

The staff at the ocean sands were so friendly, helpful and so accommodating for us and our family. Each member of staff we dealt with was so professional and no request seemed to phase them, they were only too happy to help. We had the best reception and the setting beside with the beach is beautiful - especially the morning after when you can take it all in!

We had our wedding here in June 2017 which was more than perfect thanks to the excellent and professional service of the team at the Ocean Sands. Everything went off without a hitch and was even better than we anticipated.

Linda helped to coordinate everything in the run up to the wedding and Steve and Olivia were also brilliant making things run smoothly on the day. From beginning to end, the staff were friendly and helpful, accomodating lots of little extra touches which we wanted to personalise the big day. No extra favours were too big for the team.

The food was first class, the room layout was amazing, the outdoor area was great and the setting in front of the beach and ocean was breathtaking.

Our family, friends and ourselves had an absolute ball over the weekend so if you are planning a wedding or event here we can't recommend these guys enough.

Thanks for the best weekend of our lives :)

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Anything we asked for was never a problem. The staff at this hotel are A1 and could not do enough for us on the lead up to our wedding and on the day of the wedding. Special thanks to Keely and Stephen for all their hard work and dedication. The views of the sea from the function room are phenomenal. Excellent value hotel and top notch food. Best by a mile no doubt about it, the staff make you feel like your wedding in the only one, great attention to detail on everything. You won't regret booking this venue for your wedding!

We had our wedding reception in the Ocean Sands in July 2016 and from the early planning stages we knew we had made the right choice for our venue. Teresa, Stephen and all the staff at the Ocean Sands were so helpful and accommodating at every stage from the menu and wine selection through to preparing and decorating the function room on the day. The food, staff, service and venue were top class and we would not hesitate in recommending the Ocean Sands to any couple for their wedding reception.

Teresa was an absolute pleasure to work with from the get go , she and all the staff were amazing throughout the planning stages of our wedding and on our special day. Very family orientated and all of our guests were in love with the scenery, the fantastic food and amazing welcoming response. We would both recommend the ocean sands based on our stress free, supportive and caring service we received.

Lovely hotel best I've ever stayed in.staff cant do enough for you the food and hotel is out of this world the hotel is situated in a lovely spot with lovely view looking out at the ocean.Best day of my life and had all and more a bride to be would wish for its so relaxing and laid back , I would definitely recommend the ocean sands hotel they definitely made my wedding day and made my dreams come true x

Excellent service from the planning to the big day itself. The manager and staff could not do enough for us and made great suggestions at the planning stage. They were very professional and our guests were so well looked after. The food was top quality and lots of it! Overall we cannot recommend the Ocean Sands Hotel highly enough. Many of our extended family have since returned to the hotel for a weekend away they were so impressed.

We were given their full undivided attention from the beginning, throughout and the few days after our wedding. Great value and service.
We wish Olivia and her team the very best of luck!
