About this property

Oceanfront Private Beach Access Fenced Yard Dog OK

The Sand Castle


You’ll love this oceanfront palace in Rockaway Beach on so many levels—and it has so many levels that you’ll love its versatile nature! Originally a classic beach cottage, this home has evolved into a fantastic, modern home that takes full advantage of its location, a stone’s throw to the beach. The magical upper level holds a spacious great room with a wall of windows to the sea. Not only does it sport a leather sectional circling an entertainment bay with a 75” TV—it also has an alcove with seating encircled with windows facing the ocean, perfect for whale-spotting or enjoying the nightly sunset show. You’ll enjoy meals with an ocean view from the dining table or a marble breakfast bar. And the kitchen? Beautifully updated and fit for a chef, with stainless steel appliances, a stainless farmhouse sink, a wine-chiller and so much more. Once it’s time to retreat for the day, five bedrooms give your guests private spaces to relax. Three bedrooms, one a spacious ocean-view master suite including a gorgeous, updated bath with a soaking tub and double-headed walk-in shower, provide luxury and beauty. The entry-level bedrooms share a bath and a bonus room with sofas, sink, refrigerator and a vintage pinball machine—it’s the perfect place for the kids to retreat and have their own space. Outside you’ll enjoy the sound of surf and spectacular ocean views from the deck, with a gas grill and a picnic table down on the fenced-in sand. It’s a brief walk through dune grass to seven miles of level sand, views of Twin Rocks and the endless sky and ocean. When you have lots of guests who want a front-row seat to the sea, The Sand Castle is fit for a king!

Ocean views
This house was perfect for our family. A lot of space and comfortable beds. The view could not be any better. Fenced yard for dogs with private path to the beach. The house could be a problem for people with mobility issues- there are a lot of stairs. But the climb up is well worth the amazing view.

Family weekend at the beach
We stayed with some extended family from out of town and had a wonderful time. The renovated portion of the house is beautiful and easily slept the group of us. Easy beach access and a short walk to shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable home with a beautiful view
We absolutely loved this home. Great view, easy beach access, enclosed yard. One thing in the online listing that didn’t seem to be described well is that the back half of the home is original and unimproved; the front is well updated. It was a bit of a surprise when we walked in but really fell in the love with the house.

Perfect for our gathering
We loved our stay at Sand Castle. The home was the perfect setup for our family. The views and beach were beautiful. My family asked is I’d already booked another stay for next year. The kitchen was well stock. I wish there was a way to recycle but that may not be available in that community.

The property was perfect for our family reunion. My only suggestion is that the kitchen needed more regular sized coffee mugs. There were only a few mugs and they were oversized. Thanks.

Great location!
The home has a great location, with a fenced yard for children and dogs. The location is a short walk to downtown shopping, and immediate beach access just past the fence gate. Views from the living space and both balconies were unending. We wish that we had known about the abundance of stairs inside the home prior to booking, but otherwise it was well represented by the description. Having hot water from the outdoor hose was loved by all to rinse off from the sandy salty beach.

Lovely home, great location
Great property. Old "cabin" feel in the front and newly renovated in the back. Comfortable furniture and well stocked kitchen. If your dog is smarter than ours, you may want to bring a lead for the backyard. Since it's only sand, a pup who figured out digging under the fence would have a short hop to the ocean! Luckily, our dog is an idiot and just waited for us to open the gate. :)

Location, location, location
The location will not disappoint, nor will the view. There were a few items that I communicated to the property manager regarding cleanliness and working condition (specifically ice maker didn't work), but not until after we left. I'm sure given the opportunity to fix, they would have. Oh and the trash cans in the kitchen didn't have lids. Thankfully my family member had a very well behaved dog so it was not an issue. If I had been traveling with mine, that would have been a constant distraction to deal with. Might suggest for a dog friendly property, they have lids on those cans.

Family Trip
Great property, lots of space! Check-in was delayed 3 hours due to "housekeeping emergency." This text message was received 1 hour prior to our check-in time. Meredith Lodging dealt with a difficult situation ineffectively. They promised "dinner" the night of arrival, but required I provide a receipt. I provided the receipt prior to departing 6 August, but have yet to receive reimbursement. My request for information about the reimbursement, or any credit, have gone unanswered. Great house (though the kitchen definitely needs more coffee cups and flatware!), but your mileage definitely may vary with Meredith Lodging.

Location, location, location
This is a prime location, right on the beach with a fenced yard, and a short walk to the (somewhat limited) shops and restaurants of Rockaway Beach. Clearly, this is a property consisting of two very different generations. The old house, to which a nice addition has been appended on the beach side, consists of two bedrooms, a living room/kitchen, and (on a lower level) a bathroom and entry hall. The old part is dark and uninviting, artificially brightened in the online photographs. No one wanted to spend much time in that part of the house—except to play foosball, and we put two of the older children in those bedrooms. They’re wonderful kids and didn’t complain. The new part is wonderful: bright, open, well designed and appointed. That’s where we all gathered. If you rent this house, go around to the surf (west) side to enter it for the first time because entering at the lower level on the southeast corner of the old house is startling and off-putting. I hope the owners have plans to gut and refurbish the old section. Would I recommend this property? Maybe. Would I rent it again? Probably not. Not at that price.
