I'm not a picky high maintenance person when it comes to hotels. I've stayed in everything from moderate 2 star motels to high end 4 star establishments but this was probably one of the most unpleasant places i've stayed so far. To put it simply the furnishings in my room were old and worn and the room just had a...i... more

Jamaica was GREAT but Sandcastles was not. The upkeep was awful--paint peeling, water damage, doors warped , old,broken, stained furniture, lights not working and a tarp still on the roof. We could not get towels because housekeeping was not finished with the washing. We paid for all inclusive but the menu and services were limited. You had to purchase a... more

Like all hotels you can always read good and bad reviews and like many I didn't expect much of Sandcastles. As it was I was more than pleasantly surprised.
