About this property
Castaways 4B- Location x3! Park & Walk! New Flooring! Beach Front! OMG View!
Castaways 4B — your front-row seat to the Gulf of Mexico — where the horizon is your morning call time and every sunset is a private screening from your own Gulf-front balcony.
Pull in, park, and forget the car. From here, you’re strolling the sugar-white sands to Gulf Place Beach Access, next to The Famous Hangout — where a star-studded stage for local headliners like the National Shrimp Festival and the Hangout Music Festival are located, The Pink Pony, Alvin's Island, and many other hot spots. Coffee in hand, ocean breeze in hair, and the beach as your red carpet.
Inside, the vibe is fresh and polished with brand-new flooring (completed April 2026) and room for your whole entourage — up to 6 guests. The primary suite is your personal sanctuary with a king bed, smart TV, and a private full bath featuring double sinks and a shower/tub combo. The guest bedroom brings flexibility with a queen bed, twin-over-twin bunks, and a wall-mounted smart TV; the guest bath (just outside the door) adds another shower/tub combo to keep everyone tour-ready.
Hungry? The chef’s-ready kitchen is fully stocked with cooking basics plus a K-cup coffee maker — gather at the dining area or step onto the balcony for an al fresco feast with a soundscape of rolling waves. Prefer to play it like a headliner? Order in and let the Gulf do the entertaining.
Resort-style perks keep the good times rolling: a beachfront pool, expansive sun deck with loungers, grilling area, and private beach access — your own VIP lane to the shoreline.
Good-to-know details (the fine print, but make it chic):
Beach gear: Guests sometimes leave clean, gently used chairs and toys — help yourself if available. Or pick up affordable options nearby. Prefer service? On-beach vendors rent plush chairs and umbrellas daily or weekly. Linens: All bed linens and bath towels provided. A detailed what’s-included list and packing tips arrive after booking. Fees: Admin and credit card processing fees are non-refundable after booking. Winter monthly stays: Snowbird rates (Nov–Feb) available by request; month-long reservations preferred (1st to 1st). House rules: No pets. No smoking/vaping. Primary guest must be 25+ to book and stay (strictly enforced). Parking: Guest Registration Certificates (parking passes) are required and included in booking; $45 each, max two per reservation. Passes will be waiting in the home on arrival. The lot is cozy — large vehicles may not fit. Ask about overflow options.
Castaways 4B isn’t just a place to stay — it’s your beachfront backdrop for sun-soaked mornings, festival nights, and effortless in-between moments. Step in, slow down, and let the Gulf set the tempo.

Overall property was wonderful. Few nitpicks were no patio table on awesome beach overlooking patio and no hair dryer for female guests.

I will let the owner know we need a table out there! Unfortunately, when we provide hair dryers, they end up being taken by the guests. Therefore, we mention to bring this with you in your get ready email. Thank you and come again soon!!

Reviewer Comments:
The goodBeds are very comfortable.Great water pressure in showers.View is Amazing. It really doesn't get much better. Beach access & rinse station are great.Nicely stocked kitchen. Bonus on the air fryer that was not mentioned. I would suggest some plastic dishes for kids. The badParking-small lot, spaces are extra skinny, can barley drive up/down due to skinny isle & vehicles not fitting in small spaces. I witnessed someone not be able to back their SUV out. Eating seats not designed for larger people.Entire unit was not clean to expectations. The grim on things. The dust build up on the bathroom fans. Dishes in cabinets were dirty. Floor was SO dirty our feet were black after just a couple minutes. We mopped 3x & the water was black each time - we gave up. No outside tables to eat at like picture shows only 5 Adirondack Chairs. Which are very hard for people with bad knees to get in & out of. Washer gasket has mold on it.Pool has mold all around the edges.Trash cans at pool smelled really bad.Towels were stained. The railing on the balcony is very dirty. You wont wanna hang your beach towels to dry on it. No games to play or movies to watch - the do have cable though. Celebrity was very prompt when I called after hours on Friday night to ask them to contact someone to fix the broken elevator. It was fixed by morning.I would use Celebrity Vacation Rentals again but I would never stay at this complex again.
This unit was perfect for our family and had everything we needed. The balcony was great for relaxing overlooking the beach. The pool was fun for the kids and partially covered which they loved on our one rainy day. Host was very receptive with 1 minor issue. Would recommend this unit to other families.

The property was beautiful! It was wonderful location right on the beach. It was close to everything. There was a few quirks though. The outside seating was not properly shown as in the photos. Couple of dishes were not clean when trying to cook. The fan in the room with 3 beds was not working. The outlet by the bed closest to the window was glitchy. We also had two guys come in and spray and was not notified they were coming. It would also be a good idea to have a summer quilt on the king bed as they are on the other beds. Lastly, the dining chair were extremely heavy to move. Other than that my family and I enjoyed our time.
