Property was nice but needs some minor upgrades. New pots and pans, a kitchen sized garbage can, and more toiletry items.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Castle in the Sand and appreciate your helpful suggestions. Noting the need for updated pots and pans, a full-size kitchen garbage can, and additional toiletry supplies is valuable. Your insights will help us provide a better experience for all our guests, and we hope to welcome you back soon.

Very nice condo! It was beautifully decorated, spacious, and had a wrap around balcony for great beach views! Good location in the middle of all the beach towns along 30A.

The property was very clean and well stocked. We didn’t cook but the kitchen seemed to have everything you’d need. The 3 bedrooms with 3 baths was perfect for a girl’s trip. The property needs a few touch ups but for the price is a great deal.
Thank you for staying with us at Castle in The Sand! We're so happy to hear you had a good experience and thanks for taking time to leave a 5-Star review! Please come back and stay with us again soon!

Property was as described in reviews and photos. Easy beach access. Recommend renting chairs and umbrella thru Jake's service.

This condo has a beautiful view!!! We had 7 adults and it was tight- the bunks aren’t really great for adults. I had some trouble communicating with 30a Escapes and some miscommunication about the door code (Airbnb said 48 hours before checkin, I had to ask for it). In general responses were not super helpful and I had to ask for LOTS of clarification. However, the surrounding neighborhoods are fun with great shops and restaurants.
Thank you for choosing Castle in the Sand and for taking the time to share your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that you loved the view and enjoyed the local shops and restaurants—it really is a vibrant area. We’re sorry to hear that communication didn’t meet your expectations. We truly value clear and timely information, and we’ll revisit our processes around guest access and response clarity to ensure a smoother experience for future visitors. Your insights help us improve, and we hope to have the chance to host you again—with an even better experience next time!

We had a wonderful time in this spacious 3 bedroom condo. Plenty of room for all 10 of us! Close to restaurants and Publix food store. The beach was not crowded and beautiful! Great family vacation. Property manager was very responsive!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had a wonderful time at Castle in the Sand. It's great that there was plenty of room for all 10 of you, allowing everyone to have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. We're glad that the condo's proximity to restaurants and Publix made it convenient for you to access amenities and fulfill your needs during your vacation. We appreciate your compliments on our responsive property manager. We strive to provide excellent service and promptly address any needs or concerns our guests may have.
