Pros : Beautiful view from our balcony. Very clean rooms, very clean pool. Great communication with host. Parking was good. Near many options for food and play. Cons : AC unit right next to balcony, which was very loud. Only 1 working elevator and it broke our second day there. 8 flights of stairs not fun. It got fixed later that day. The only elevator working is tiny.

We have been coming to Sand Castle 1 on Indian Shores for the past 3 years. This was our first time in this unit. It was the best by far. We have already booked for next year in this unit. The appliances are all new and wonderful! I usually don’t do much laundry on vacation due to the machines not being nice, but this was top notch. The kitchen is fully stocked. Amazing patio and outside furniture. Can’t wait until next year! Counting down the days. Thanks for allowing us use of your condo.

About the host

Hosted by Carole Wissman

Host profile image

Our family is currently living in Ohio. We lived in Florida for several years and missed Florida so much we purchased this unit. As we are still raising children and can't use our condo as much as we would like, we thought is would be nice to share the condo with other families. We try very hard to keep our unit in excellent shape so you can enjoy your vacation time.

What makes this property unique

We think one of the nicest benefits of this area is that it's very quiet and peaceful. If we want nightlife it's just a few minutes drive.
