Our room was in a detached building in the back which was a little disappointing. The room we got was comparable to any motel in the area for triple the price. Unless you’re paying for ocean front this place isn’t worth it.

I stayed at the Sandcastle with beach front view and it was the best vacation ever because we were right there on the beach. We had a second story patio, got carry out at a new Mediterranean Cusine up the street. Brought it home with a glass of wine and watched the sun set just about every night. Got up and was out on the beach walking in the water for hours. It was great exercise. They also have great appetizers and wine, breakfast foods that are really good. And the staff are about and about checking to make sure the guests are well taken care of. I liked all of the staff, but superlatives were Brigette and Issac. Just calm happy people who listen to what you need with a friendly smile. A great staff of approachable people. 5 out 5 stars from me.
