The Carolina Sands Resort was begun too late to take its place in the condo boom of the mid 2000's. This residential project consists of 9 living levels above 4 levels of parking, with additional parking in a matching garage across Ocean Boulevard. There is a mix of two and three bedroom units, some with lock-outs, totaling 117 condominiums, all with balconies overlooking the Atlantic. The use of extensive curtain wall glazing on the boulevard side manages to give this blocky building a light and airy aspect. The limited site created an almost square overall floor plan, with individual units occupying three sides of the square. The small space left in the center of the building holds the elevators and utility portions of the building. However, the center core is also able to contain a small lounge on each level, with the lounge having a great view to the inland side of the Grand Strand.
