About
Ocean Sands at York Beach
A new chapter built on classic York Beach spirit
Where Tradition Meets the Tide
Ocean Sands is a York Beach retreat made for families - a place to reconnect, reset, and return to the simple joys of the coast. It’s the kind of stay where kids fall asleep happy, parents actually relax, and everyone leaves already talking about “next time.”
Formerly known as Sea Latch Inn, this property has long been part of York Beach’s story - and today it continues that tradition with a relaxed, beachy approach to hospitality.
Here, the memories come naturally: beach mornings, pool afternoons, downtown evenings, and ocean-view moments that feel like Maine at its best.
