Summary: This was the 2nd time we’ve stayed at Sandcastle with our family and it solidified our decision to make this an annual tradition. The beautiful rooms, cafe area, extremely helpful and friendly staff, beach amenities (chairs, towels, toys) and super easy walk to beach are what sell it. Next door is a large nice resort as well but we love Sandcastle much more because of its intimate and personal ambiance. Shyloh at the cafe was our favorite, so helpful and friendly - but everyone we encountered were welcoming and helpful. It’s rare to find this service and we will absolutely be back many times to come!
