Life at the Sands

At The Sands, luxury is a feeling, not a finish. At The Sands, mornings move slower, breezes carry salt and light, and days are filled with ease. Every detail, inside and out, was designed to make life feel effortless, natural, unforgettable.

Room with large windows overlooking a body of water, dark blue walls, and a built-in entertainment center with shelves and drawers. There is a ladder leaning against the shelving unit.

Whether pedaling down Front Beach on a morning ride or coasting into downtown,

The Sands was built for a lifestyle in motion: smooth, simple, and full of joy.


At The Sands, we honor the spirit of community from generations past while creating a legacy for generations to come, a seamless blend of heritage, design, and refined coastal living.

Welcome to The Sands at Front Beach

A life of timeless elegance and coastal ease awaits at The Sands at Front Beach. Set along the coveted stretch of Front Beach Drive, this exclusive beachfront community blends architectural distinction with the charm and spirit of Ocean Springs. Here, mornings begin with coastal breezes, afternoons invite walks and bike rides along the shore, and evenings end with neighbors gathered on wide, welcoming porches.

Our vision is to revive the connection and character of coastal living—where design, craftsmanship, and community come together in perfect balance.

The Build

Architecture, materials, and landscaping are thoughtfully selected to harmonize with the natural surroundings and endure beautifully over time. Every detail is approached with integrity—crafted using time-tested techniques and genuine materials built to last for generations.

Architecture

The Sands pays homage to the enduring architecture of the American South and the breezy elegance of the Caribbean West Indies.

The result is a curated coastal enclave—distinctive, authentic, and unlike anything else along the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
