Perfect Location
The location of Sandcastle was perfect for our group! It seems this is the quiet end of the beach….lots of space on the beach! Also, close enough to main roads to go and explore the area. All of the Amenities were spot on. The pool was nice, everyone was friendly and the condo was very clean! Overall we were more than satisfied with our stay!

Perfect location
From the moment I booked Tom/manager was a fabulous communicator about questions I had before and during stay. My family enjoyed this perfect spot. All beds were very comfortable, kitchen was well supplied, and the view every day was spectacular. The heated pool was perfect, and the beach was gorgeous. We loved walking across the street to Caddy’s. Such a fun restaurant with live music and good food. Indian Shores is much better than Clearwater(in our opinion) due to less crowds. We will definitely be back.

We had an excellent stay at the condo. Everything was clean, and comfortable, with a great view and close to everything. The kids (11,9,5,3) enjoyed the beach, tons of shells, and pool. We are looking forward to booking again next year.

Pretty Perfect
Description was very accurate. Condo was immaculate. I’ve been traveling the area for 60 years and location is beautiful!!! Pool was amazing. A few items need a bit of updating like bathroom tub surrounds and moldings but did not detract from experience because of cleanliness. Tom responds to questions immediately.
