Absolutely amazing accommodations. I would highly recommend Sandcastle. We had a one bedroom condo with an amazing view of the pool and the gulf. It was extremely clean and well appointed. There were his and her closets in the bedroom. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates and cups, coffee mugs, flatware, pots and pans, toaster, blender, and many other kitchen essentials. Our unit had a washer and dryer as well. They start you off with one roll of paper towels and some kitchen towels. They give you a fresh unopened, kitchen sponge, dishwashing soap, and dishwasher tablets. If we ran out of something, we just ask at the front desk, and they happily replenished. If you’re gonna wash clothes you will need to bring your own laundry soap. The staff and everyone we talk to that worked there was very, very friendly. All the restaurants and shops are close by. Everything is within a five minute drive time. We did not get a golf cart but purchased a $12 beach pass because you can drive right up on the beach. We will be back 😄
Absolutely magical! Right off the beach, has a boardwalk from the condos straight to the beach. The pool is huge, super clean and beautiful. The employees were super nice and our room had an incredible view with beautiful indoor accommodations.
Had a great time in unit #113! Very clean. Have a blocked view of the water due to the dunes, but still nice and you don't get the direct sun. The beach Tue-Fri wasn't crowded. Had an issue with the bed that maintenance was able to quickly fix. The legs for the middle support were half missing. They are stingy with towels so just pack your own shower towels. It's very much a hotel so no blanket for the couch. Thanks to previous guests who left their streaming apps logged into the TV. The dryer filter had 10 pounds of lint and sand in it and seems like a fire hazard. They need to have room service clean these out and not rely on guest.
Good location; right on the beach. The room was nice; we could hear the people in the room next door. Great AC! Far accommodation; expected a bit more for the price. The elevators were not working properly; we either had to walk to another elevator and hope it worked or take the stairs (our room was on the 4th floor). My daughter and I stayed for 5 days. There were only 2 towels in the room, and it took a day to get more. There were only 2 filters for the coffee pot and it wasn't even the right kind. No coffee or fixings available in the room.
I've been coming to sandcastle for a while. They were reasonably priced, have a decent pool, and direct access to the beach. The hurricane and then closing due to damage put a stop to that. I was happy to hear they finally remodeled and reopened. Of course, with the pandemic, we still stayed away but finally returned in 2023! The website needs to be updated. You still have to check in in person in the lobby. Get your key. The keys stopped working prior to our last day. Luckily, we always had a person available inside to open the door. The pool is nice, but the fountain needs an upgrade, and the pool walls need to be cleaned. There is a bit of black mold. There is nothing to give it less than 5 stars for the price.
