What I DO like about a lot of the rooms of this place is the Ocean View, and the fact that you can go online and do a virtual tour by unit. You are not guaranteed your first choice, so have a couple of back up rooms selected in case your first choice is not available when you check in.... More

This is our favorite family friendly vacation destination. We have been visiting Port A every summer for 10+ years, and the Sancastle is such a nice, relaxing place; we never want to stay anywhere else. We always book the same room (unit 320), it's a 1 bedroom condo with a view of the pool and beach, and a nice big... More

We got there late at night, and we got a 3rd floor room over looking the pool and the turtle pond towards the ocean. There was not any room service, but close to all the good food shop. We stock the kitchen and went off to play The parking was limited. There was the room diary, which along with trip... More

Each room is owned by different owners. Some rooms are more updated than others. Some rooms have better views than others. #319 Is an efficiency with a small kitchenette. The room is clean and nice. The room is on the inside of the 'horseshoe' over looking the pool, hot tub, boardwalk, beach and ocean.

We stayed 3 nights in an 'efficiency' condo, which was actually quite spacious. Location of condo was very good as we faced south down the beach, which meant we got sun on the balcony in the afternoon. The place, including furniture, was a bit dated, but was nonetheless comfortable and clean (we got one with tiled floor throughout).

I have stayed at Sandcastle in the paste and had generally good experiences. However, this year I planned a trip with my girlfriend and was called 3 days later stating that my reservation was going to be canceled because she is under 25. I am in my 30's, have kids, multiple degrees (not to mention currently in law school), and... More

Entire staff extremely helpful and friendly. NOT The Ritz but a good family beach vacation. Dated and a little worn, they are upgrading and updating units constantly. Website makes room selection a challenge but just CALL and describe what you need. No rest or bar but close to many and only about a mile from main drags. Economical and best... More

Stayed here with my wife on vacation for a few days. Stayed in an efficiency overlooking the beach. Kitchen was set up a bit weird (no accessible outlet near kitchen counter), and the toilet didn't flush well, but other than that it was good. Easy walking distance to beach.
