I have stayed at Beach Castle several times and was always happy with the stay overall. BUT, this time we paid for a beachfront room and were given a beachside room. There is a HUGE difference and I am very disappointed. No view of the beach unless you go outside on the patio and turn to the side. The beachfront rooms have direct access and a direct beautiful view.

There is easy and quick access to the beautiful beach on the gulf with chairs for guest use. There is also a nice fishing pier on the bay. Beautiful scenery, fully equipped condo, laundry facility and more.

Great Location
Very clean, well furnished and great location. Would have appreciated a kitchen sponge, a roll of paper towels and more outlets (w/ power strips) to plug in all my technology. Disappointed I never received a response back on two texts I sent via VRBO app. to owner/property manager, as I prepared for my trip.

We really enjoyed the location. It was easy to walk to beach and some shops and restaurants. The pool and hot tub were nice great temperature. Our unit had everything we needed and we loved the screen porch. We will definitely return in the future!

Completamente diferente a lo que decía en la publicidad del lugar, tenia un olor extraño el apartamento, pague por un deluxe con vista al mar y me entregaron uno sin ninguna vista, tiene un ruido muy fuerte la unidad de aire acondicionado,
