Short trip

The Sandcastles condo was perfect. We are an older couple and it was the perfect size for us. My husband enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the waves while I took the dog for beach walks. The pool and lobby area were spotless. Sandcastles is next door to the Omni Hotel so we walked over for dinner. The resort itself is perfect with lots of trails and walks. We would definitely stay there again.

It’s the reason you go to the Beach!

It’s the Beach, silly! You see when you wake up in the morning and look out from the balcony over coffee and breakfast. The walk to the shore, it’s very close and it goes on for miles! Finally after dinner you leave the door to the balcony open and listen to the waves hit the shore! Wake up the next morning and repeat!

Beds from hell

The beds are horrible, but when i voiced that, they offered to move us in another unit which was very nice and really turned our vacation around. The elevator wasn’t working when we arrived either but no fault to the owners of the unit. Would not stay here again.

Good... could have been great

Overall, this is a nice condo. Lots of light, easy access to the beach and pool, wonderful neighborhood, and gorgeous view. There were several issues. The keypad to enter the condo was broken and it took some time to figure out how to access the key to get us into the condo. Once we got the key, it only worked on one of the two doors into the condo. The keypad was never fixed during our stay, so we only had one key the entire stay. The other issue was the bathtub. In the pictures it had both a shower head and bath faucet. Once we got there, there was no bath faucet, just a capped roughed-in pipe sticking out of the wall, so my daughter was unable to take a bath during our stay. The living room fan also did not work. The property manager was helpful when we arrived in getting us access to the condo via the key box, but the property manager did not respond to us when we contacted them about other issues.
