Summary:

Sandcastle 97



The Space:

Located in a gated beachside community, Sandcastle by the Sea is a family-friendly 6BR/4BA retreat that promises an elevated vacation experience. This brand-new home boasts high-end finishes paired with amazing outdoor space. A private elevator adds convenience to your luxurious stay. Folly Field Beach is three blocks away with rubber pathway access (convenient for wagons, wheelchairs, etc.), bathrooms, and outdoor showers. Rent bikes nearby and explore the beach boardwalk. You also have access to 12 pickleball courts and six tennis courts.



Kick back and relax on the spacious patio, outfitted with an ultra-private pool (heated and covered). Sunbathe on lounge chairs between refreshing swims. Twinkling string lights hang above patio tables; fire up the gas grill and dine alfresco. Stretch out on cushioned furniture and watch shows on the outdoor TV. Enjoy the lush treetop vistas from a second balcony, located off the living area.



Head back inside to unwind in the beautifully-appointed living room, and enjoy comfortable furnishings and a 70' smart TV. Huge 12' sliding glass doors offer abundant natural light. The gourmet kitchen showcases sleek granite countertops, a roomy island, and stainless steel appliances -- including a double oven! A lovely chandelier illuminates the dining table, perfect for great meals and even greater conversation. Kid-friendly extras include a Pack 'n Play with a 3' mattress, high chair, booster seat, umbrella stroller, ping-pong table, and kids' beach gear (toys, cart, chairs, umbrella). Complimentary WiFi and a washer/dryer are provided.



This home sleeps 18 guests in six bedrooms, each with a smart TV. Sweet dreams await in the primary suite, detailed with a king bed and a private balcony. The spa-like en-suite bath boasts a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, a double vanity, and plush robes. The second suite includes a king bed and en-suite bath with a walk-in shower.

Fantastic vacation rental!

We stayed at this property for 5 days and enjoyed every moment. The wifi worked great as our daughter was still taking classes remotely, and the owner has thought of every detail; including pool and beach accessories! Wish we could has stayed longer, but looking forward to another stay in the future. 🥰

Perfect Accommodations

THANK you for the elevator. We loved the short, direct walking trail to the beach, restaurant and children activities (arcade and mini golf just next door). Appreciate the FULLY equiped kitchen and televisions in every room, including poolside. Loved the covered pool area and an operating grill. The home was clean and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Family Vacation

This home was great for our family vacation. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cooking utensils and small appliances. The bathrooms were great; they provided plenty of towels and travel sized toiletries. No beach towels so bring your own. Overall this home was a perfect fit for our needs and it was even a little above our expectations on what was provided to make our vacation enjoyable.

The house is gorgeous! Family had a great time. The construction going on in the neighborhood would have been nice to know. The location is not as close to the beach as we thought. But overall a fun time for our family.

Inaccurate Amenities

Home is beautiful but the broken appliances made for a delayed stay. Once the appliances are repaired or replaced, it will make for a perfect quick stay. Everything is in walking distance and the kids were able to roam safely in the area and the beach was a short walk.
Response from VrboOwner on 11 May 2024
Thank you for your feedback, Kirklyn. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered with some of the appliances in the home. Our property manager confirms all of the appliances are now functional. Compensation has been provided for the inconvenience this caused to your group. We hope for a chance to host you for a much-improved experience in the future.
