Pool was great fun after a day on the beach! Location was great. Walking distance from Florabama and plenty of attractions for things to do! Would highly recommend this place if you have a large group! Our host was very easy to work with! When we thought we had a problem with the clothes dryer and called maintenance, they were there in fifteen minutes! Only to find out that we didn’t have the door shut tight! LOL! Again, would highly recommend and hope to return. Of note…this was our second stay in this house and looking to stay again sometime in the future! ##### Cynthia B. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Always a winner We have stayed at this property 5 times now, with the first time being when it was first built. It is very well maintained and clean, never a disappointment. We are a very picky renter with a list of requirements for places we rent. One cannot go wrong with any of this owners' properties. We have also rented another of their properties, and it was the same quality. Castle in the Sands is well appointed with high end furnishings, comfortable and the layout is perfect. The deck has a lot of seating while enjoying the pool or watching the dolphins in the ocean. There is nothing better than renting a property that is oceanfront with private beach. It's one's own private piece of paradise while renting this home. The added benefit of this property is that the owners manage their rentals and live in the area. They check their rentals between stays and are quick responders throughout the entire process and stay. I have always dealt with Greg who is just amazing. Anyone renting this property, or another one, can do so with confidence. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David L., Yorba Linda May 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Golfers getaway 16 guys traveling the world to play golf. Orange Bch AL came up on the list and CastleInTheSand became our home base for a week. What a great place in a great location. The house had a lot of space for 16 guys! We enjoyed all of the amenities described and the communication with the Host was great. I highly recommend this place. Thanks for having us! Team Old Guys Rule ##### David L.

CASTLE IN THE SAND- East was an amazing property that left our family of 17 with full hearts. The house was large enough to hold us all but also allowed for us to have plenty of “our own space”. I would highly recommend this house to others. ##### Paige R. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary W.

The house was absolutely magnificent! Exceeded all our expectations, every room was perfect. Loved having two stoves, two refrigerators, and two dishwashers. Access to the beach was excellent and we loved having all of the beach umbrellas and chairs. Thank you for a wonderful, wonderful vacation. ##### Thomas W.

The kitchen was well appointed with 2 fridges, 2 dishwashers and plenty of plates and utensils. We had a group of people and had plenty of space for all of us to spread out and have our own space. The biggest bonus for us was the short walk down the boardwalk to the beach. It was 1 minute to the sand. We spent many hours on the beautiful beach. The house is close to restaurants and grocery stores and the area is not overcrowded. It is just as described and is a great vacation home option. ##### Mark S.

Plenty of room for our large family, loved that all the bedrooms with king size beds had their own bathroom. Lots of memories were made here and I would definitely rent this home again! All communication with the property owner was seamless. Thank you so much! ##### Pamela F. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George P.

We had 7 couples that stayed on the East side and everyone was so very happy with the layout of the house. The bedrooms with the walk in showers are awesome. Very spacious house for large groups of people. The pool is definitely a plus. ##### George P. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vicki S. Sep 19, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing house! As family seems more precious now that my mom is no longer here since she passed away in June, my twin sister, and 3 cousins along with spouses and significant others and I decided to rent this awesome house. This house greatly exceeded all of our expectations. We only cooked twice while there, but the kitchen had everything you need which is rarely the case when renting. We loved that there were multiple appliances. We loved the privacy that this house provided. No crowds and noise to deal with. We are all kind of over staying in high rise condos that you have to wait on an elevator and steak out chairs at the pool and beach. This house was spectacular in every way and we are already making plans for a 2nd annual "cousins beach trip" for next year. ##### Vicki S.

Great location, close to everything, but you have a private beach. The pool and gas grill are an added bonus on the deck overlooking the beautiful beach. The property owners are amazing and readily available. We will be back! ##### Tina G.
