It was quiet, comfortable... more

I had to post another review...people beware. I stayed at Sand Castle hotel in February of 2009. I must say the time we spent there (9 days) was great. We occupied 3 rooms on the second floor. Room service was not available but that was not an issue because it's located next to everything. I went back with my mom... more

just got back from my 2nd trip to jamaica. Sandcastles is ideally located if you like to be in the real environment of jamaica. I did like the restaurant and food. The hotel itself looks quite good from the outside. Considering where it is situated it was quite peaceful. At first i didnt like my room but i soon adjusted... 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. I booked an apartment at the resort (D15) direct through Holiday-rentals (http://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk/p220117). I can't comment therefore on the rooms you get with the hotel generally however I couldn't fault this particular... more

With Mr. Hugh Wint, Hotelier, at the helm...this resort is poised for great things... the recently refurbished Castle Restaurant.. is creating waves...the food is now an infusion of international and Jamaican cuisine that will leave you breathless...A great Resort for business conferences or leisure vacation. Why wait? more

I stayed at this Resort in June of 2009 and I had a flawless stay. The staff were very helpful and courteous. I am seeing some unfair reviews of this resort and it makes me think that people are just exaggerating. My room was clean and the food was great! I would reccomend this hotel to anyone who likes simplicity,... more

I had to request a room change due to the poorly maintained apartment style accomodations, which were spacious but in need of improvement and repair. The 2nd room C!3 was well maintained, new airconditioning units, nicely tiled bathroom. The only thing lacking was a view of the beach. But I'll gladly give up the view for clean and comfortable accomodations.... more
