Firstly found it very frustrating we did not get code until 1600 as we traveled from Orlando and wanted to drop bags off. Parking was extremely tight in garage, there is ongoing work right next door so could not sit on balcony or by pool which was why we picked this apartment. Then Hurricane Helena hit no information of where to go and lost 3 days rental no offer of compensation even though we had to find somewhere to stay ourselves. Really not the restful vacation we wanted
- Posted: 9/28/2024
Thank you for your feedback, Michael. I apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the access code and parking situation. We understand how frustrating the construction noise and the unexpected Hurricane Helena were, especially when you're looking to relax. We're sorry for the loss of your rental days and the lack of support during that time. Your comments will be addressed internally as we strive to improve our communication and services. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Our stay at the Sand Castles resort was amazing. This is our second time here and it was equally as great as the first. The condo is extremely well stocked with linens, kitchen supplies, and beach toys/chairs/coolers. We flew to town and we're worried we would have nothing but ended up with everything we needed. The condo is beautiful and laid out well with comfy beds and furniture. HIGHLY recommend this booking and we will definitely be back. There was 1 minor maintenance issue during our stay that was fixed very promptly!

Thank you for your review, Jordan! We're glad to hear you had another wonderful stay at Sand Castles Resort. We appreciate your feedback on the amenities, and we're pleased that the minor issue was resolved promptly. Looking forward to your next visit!

Wonderful
This condo was wonderful! A huge porch that we sat out every morning and every evening. Beautiful views! Lots of space! This condo had more items in the condo then any place I have stayed at, like beach chairs, sand toys, coolers etc. restaurants are in walking distance and clear water is only a 19 min drive. We loved this condo!

Enjoyable trip from Michigan
Beautiful property, beach scenery beautiful, great restaurants and ice cream. The orange/white swirl cone was the best from Yellow banks grove. We would suggest a new coffee maker. Overall trip was amazing

This place was perfect for my family of 6 and 2 young children! The pool and hot tub were just what we needed once the kids got tired of the beach. Beautiful views! Quiet place. Caddy’s restaurant is across the street with good food drinks entertainment and also kid friendly. Not to much is in walking distance besides caddy’s though which was fine for us because we had a rental car! Would definitely stay here again!

Omg. The place itself was perfect for our family vacation with 6 adults and two kids. Beautiful balcony area with thee greatest view and sunsets. Plenty of towels. Kitchen amenities aplenty. Bring your own garbage bags, laundry and dishwasher pods. Uber/Lyft from the airport, don’t rent a car, save your money.
Use insta cart for groceries/ drinks and Uber/Lyft for anything you’d like to do outside of walking distance, you’ll be money ahead.

Perfect for our family of 8!!
We had a wonderful time staying at the condo. This is our 5th trip back to the area, and this stay was one of the best. So happy to see some of the essentials in the cupboard when we arrived. Plenty of space to spread out. Pool and hot tub were cleaned every day. Beach was beautiful and plenty to do in the area. Thanks for letting us stay!!!

Property Review
Property was very nice but door lock needs work. There were times when it was difficult to lock the door when leaving the condo. Elevators were questionable. One was not operating for most of the week.

fabulous stay
Everything was as described. Well stocked, comfortable beds, great location, spacious balcony with good seating options. The only issue was a shower clog that was easily remedied with a little drano. My only suggestion would be to provide a few more extra blankets for cooler weather. I'd stay here again.

Excellent property and enjoyed the stay. Only issue was getting the second guess parking. There are very few guest spots and very limited street parking. When you finally get a parking spot don’t move it.

Family and Friends Vacation
We loved the condo. It was very clean and modern. The only downside is it’s so new and light (white) colored that I was constantly worried about dirt staining something. The kitchen was well supplied. I do wish it had had a Keurig because we are spoiled, but made do with the traditional coffee pot. The elevators and trash disposal could not have been in a better location as they are right out the front door. The balcony offers a beautiful view of the marina with easy access when we rented a boat for the day. The beach is an easy walk and lots of stores and restaurants to choose from. We also rented a golf cart one day to access other areas so we didn’t have to take our rental car. All in all we loved our stay and would highly recommend it.

That is awesome Anonymous! glad you enjoyed your stay at Sand Castle 2601. Pleased you found the condo clean, modern with a well supplied kitchen.

We hope you relaxed and thank you for your recommendation we are hopeful you will join us again for a future stay.

Indian Shores is a 10!
This unit at Sand Castle II was excellent. Lovely decor and nice furniture. Kitchen was well stocked and updated. Bathrooms were updated with good showers. Master bed very comfortable. The grounds were well kept and the pool was cleaned every morning. We loved the corner unit providing western & southern ocean views. Outdoor shower was great right as you come off the beach. Caddy Pub directly across the street was really convenient. Communication with Resort Rentals was excellent. Worth every penny & we’ll be back for sure!
