Working with Robin Camp and the entire staff at One Ocean was a terrific experience. Our wedding was a wonderful experience to remember because of One Ocean.

We started out with a vision of our dream wedding, which didn't look much like a wedding at all. I wanted a short but sweet ceremony followed by a great party. One Ocean was able to provide a beautiful space on the outside Verandina that fit 100 guests perfectly. It was a great choice to do the ceremony and reception all in one space (no travel required). We chose an open bar and passed food (instead of a sit down dinner) and had 100 happy guests. The space was set up like a cocktail lounge and only needed a few small floral arrangements and tons of candles (huge savings). The staff was wonderful and the food and beverage was worth every penny. Also a million wonderful places for great photo ops.

The venue is breathtakingly gorgeous. The staff is impeccable, treating each guests like royalty from the moment they open your car door to the moment they bid you farewell. Robin Camp is the most wonderful Catering Sales Manager you could possibly ask for. She was our greatest asset, making sure everything was taken care of from the pre-planning to our last dance. This would not be a complete and accurate statement without commenting on the Chef whose presentation of our dinner was as impressive as the taste itself. I can not close without saying that the pastry chef worked magic on our cake.
The entire experience was simply perfect. I’d like for us to renew our vows annually…same time, same place, every year!

Robin was absolutely AMAZING!!!! Words can not express the joy and deep appreciation me and my new husband have for Robin and One Ocean's services. If you are getting married and considering using these services do not look any further. I am so serious you, your future spouse, family and friends will all be so pleased on this special day. I had 3 months to my wedding when my new husband and I changed our venue from the DC metro area to my hometown in Jacksonville Fl and from the 1st time I emailed Robin she was readily available. I can go on and on but the only sad part is that the wedding is over and I will not talk to Robin nearly everyday anymore. But please understand that you will never ever ever regret your decision to have your special event at One Ocean with the help of Robin Camp.

Our experience at One Ocean Resort Hotel and Spa was wonderful. They were very accomodating and willing to work with our budget. We put a wedding together there in 2 weeks. It came out beautiful. It was everything I could have asked for. They were very professional and helpful with the planning. We had a wonderful menu prepared for us and everyone was impressed with the quality of food and service. I would highly recommend using One Ocean Resort Hotel and Spa for any special occasion.

They did whatever I wanted. The day of the ceremony my bridesmaids demanded that they wash the windows in the room where my reception was and they happily complied. They also dusted and made sure everything was perfect.
My bridesmaids and my Mother went into the room ahead of time and made whatever changes they wanted (all they did was add rose petals to the tables).
Fred was my planner and he was very helpful.
We didn't eat that much because we were busy socializing, but what we did have was awesome and the feedback from our guests was great too.

I had a wonderful experience with One Ocean Resort! We had our destination wedding there in June 2011. It was difficult to plan a wedding in Florida from Texas, but Robin and the staff were very helpful and accommodating. All of the details were settled by the time we arrived and we were able to enjoy a few relaxing days before the wedding. On our wedding day, the weather was shaky, so we were given the option to use an inside room in the event it rained. The ceremony went off without a hitch (outside!) and the reception was lovely. The food and cake were awesome and well worth the price. Everything went wonderfully and exactly the way I envisioned! I highly recommend One Ocean to brides looking for a low stress, beautiful location for their beach wedding!

We had both our ceremony and a pre-ceremony reception at One Ocean. Sara and her team did an amazing job. From the catering to the set up all aspects were outstanding. The team moved moved the chairs for the ceremony several times as we dodged pre-event rain. The team also worked extremely well with my very exacting event coordinator and her decor team. Every person at One Ocean put their heart and soul into making my event the very best. I highly reccomend this venue.

We couldn't be happier with the service from One Ocean Resort. The food was absolutely fantastic, from the hors d'houvres, to dinner, to wedding cake... it was all a "10." Our guests enjoyed the venue of One Ocean and Atlantic Beach as well. We made the mistake of hiring a private wedding coordinator who fell far short of our expectations, and we owe a special thanks to Robin Camp who was very helpful/professional, and clearly went above and beyond to fill the void. Overall, the venue exceeded our loftiest expectations.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!! It was beautifully decorated and went perfect with my cream/aqua wedding theme. The food and service was awesome and every staff member was extremely accommodating and professional. My only issue is that during the payment process, I had several payments to make and in the end, the person I did business with tried to add in hidden fees that mounted up to $7,000!!! I refused to pay that and it was not in my contract, but the overseer of O.O. straightened the whole thing out and I had the wedding reception of my dreams! My guests are still ranting and raving about the great tasting food and the high end luxurious feel of One Ocean!

Robin was great and wonderful to work with. My wedding day was amazing and I thank her so much for everything she has done. She responded to every email and even sent me emails making sure everything was going well. She would work with my schedule for meetings and reviewing things. The food was great, the cake was amazing. I think some things were a little pricey but I knew it going into it. The only thing I would say negative about One Ocean was the quest services, the following day, we had a few wedding quests complain that the service they received the following morning wasn't so great. Other than that, AMAZING! I can't say that it would have been the same without Robin and One Ocean!

the start of my booking with one ocean was a bit rocky but when robin camp took over things became much easier. she was attentive and they worked well with us. the wedding was beautiful (but a bit hot...too bad we cant contol the weather!!) and i felt very well taken care of. the staff at the resort was SOO attentive and took care of every need that we had. they were wonderful and would do it there again if i had to do it all over again.

Our cake was included in the quote for catering with One Ocean and though it was delicious, it was really plain looking. We were disappointed in this as we explained what we wanted and the first thing we were told was that an extra charge would be applied for anything elaborate. Is color elaborate? I feel it must be as we did not pay extra and received a pretty plain white cake with flowers that were reused from another bakery set up (so nothing extra had to be done for our cake). I was really disappointed in this. My suggestion is to NOT leave instructions with the wedding coordinator and provide pictures/diagrams of exactly what you want because if you give vague instructions (Christmas, gift box, color) you might get a plain white cake with recycled little flowers that will be used for your punch of color.
Flavor - Wonderful!
Appearance - Highly...

Wedding: 10/9/11
The day of the event was wonderful. The staff that day was extremely nice and responsive to our needs. The lead-up to the wedding, however, was awful. The sales person did not follow up on anything, including booking our wedding and booking the rooms for the wedding party and events. When someone else took over, the bookings were complete but it was obvious that she did not care about my event at all. I did not receive a bill for anything, they simply charged my credit card about 5 times for various items, with no paper to back any of it up. Food is wonderful but be very careful about booking.....GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING!

Robin Camp, the current coordinator, was extremely professional. It was the preceding two coordinators over our 12 month engagement that were rigid and inconsistent. Overall, however, beautiful location, excellent service, delicious food, and a fun environment for a wedding reception!

Staff was very friendly, upbeat and tried to compensate for their shortfalls. The hotel was going through renovations. This was just our Reception venue, not our ceremony also... though they do those too.
We didn't get what we were promised (gift basket in the room, etc) and for the money spent, I could've done better... but, it was alright.

Robin did a great job! Super-flexible, organized, and accommodating. She did not deliver the unity candle dome, and lighting our candle during the ceremony (embarrassing because the wind kept blowing out the candle). Make sure Bridal suite has enough lighting to do makeup!
