Condo was great. Philip was very responsive and helpful. Seen dolphins daily in the am on the balcony. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking. Plenty of space for the family. Close distance from legoland, Busch Gardens, John’s pass, and plenty of restaurants. caddy’s is directly across the street and food is great. Kids loved the pool. Would stay here again!

Nice unit. Entertainment system very confusing. Facility very family friendly. Beach very nice.

First time staying at Sandcastle II but hopefully not my last. Great communication with the owner before and during my stay. The condo is beautifully decorated and was very spacious. Very well stocked with starter items as well as some beach items, cooler and lots of kitchen cookware although we didn't cook much. Grouper sandwich at Caddys (across the street) was delicious! The grounds on site has a deluxe Weber grill setup that we really wanted to use one night but never got around to but maybe next trip. We also took our senior pet with us and she did really well and enjoyed her vacation as well. Looking forward to returning Philip!

We had the most wonderful time. The description was great! We loved our time and will be going back!

We really enjoyed our time in this condo. Views of the beach every morning and sunset every evening. The owner had great communication and was very responsive. Thanks for a great vacation!

Owner was nice but slightly repetitive on rules about the rental. Lots of texting & repeating which could be offensive to some renters. As a rental manager myself, I understand the chances taken renting your property out and damages that could result. On vacation I do not want to be texted daily! Other than that, property was very spacious & modern with amazing view of the beach & water. Dolphins daily and location was the best! Peaceful and very quiet! Definitely would highly recommend and will go back often!

Very easy

We had a great time! Our host Phil was very attentive and helpful and we had a beautiful view of the ocean and Florida sky! Very convenient location!

Way too many long, repetitive, patronizing, and unnecessary instruction texts and telephone calls from this extremely unprofessional owner, resulting with me having to tell him to never text or telephone me again and filing complaint with VRBO. Owner expects guests to fill out checklist, strip beds, wash linens and towels, and made requests throughout the week for other things around the unit to be done that should be handled by housekeeping staff, not guests. Owner was untruthful about automatic air conditioning system and wouldn't lower the thermostat below 78 degrees until I threatened to leave and take it up with VRBO. Owner called me a “knucklehead” because I hadn't booked directly through him after I had already booked online in April and couldn't cancel. Parking spaces under building are very tight and hard to locate due to a weird numbering system. All the larger vehicles were parked outside. Owner responded promptly to have issues with electrical outlet and balcony doors resolved. Unit and area are nice, but we booked our next visit with Plumlee Realty for this same building, different unit. Judging from his reaction to any negative comments on VRBO reviews, I expect that this owner will paint me as demanding and unreasonable and will make excuses and disagree with my comments in his reply to this review.

This condo was overall okay. The cleanliness was a 3/5 stars due to the staining on comforters in the queen beds room, the pool of water still under the kitchen rug (I’m assuming from mopping), the mildew of the washer, and unkeep/unclean kitchenware (scrubbed eggs off of spatulas). The condo only had 6 towels… this condo can sleep up to 8 guests. The utensils needs updating. The thermostat needed attention roughly every 2-3 hours as it has a “hold” option (that we could not cancel) which requires you to manually turn down the AC to lowest 71°, otherwise it would turn to 74°. The parking was tricky at first due to the appointed parking spot was only big enough for a Toyota Camry, not any bigger. Phil informed us of a spot we could could my in-laws suburban. Overall I gave this location a 4/5. Beautiful beach and fun area to visit!

We enjoyed ourselves at this location. The condo was clean and just as advertised. We would visit again.

We are annual Florida beachfront condo renters. The beach is of course beautiful but for the high price, the property was disappointing. The condo Parking spots are not in order so it’s extremely difficult to find the (1) assigned spot. There were 7 towels when the condo sleeps 8 and no beach towels. It could also have been cleaner, washing machine had gunk in it, dishes were not clean and so we washed them before use. Kitchen could be more well stocked. There were only 4 mismatched wine glasses, not a single large bowl and no baking dishes just cookie sheets. We also found the owner to be unprofessional.

Awesome owner; very involved with frequent communications before and during stay. The 3 Bedroom unit is nice / well equipped and furnished, but better suited for 6 people than 8 because of only having 2 bathrooms, but worth the space sacrifice for the location. Loved the balcony overlooking the pool and beach; beautiful sun sets. Family had a great time at the beach, pool, and local restaurants / activities.

It was one of the best trips we have had

Condo was clean, comfortable and in a great location. Owner was very helpful and responsive.

Condo was perfect and fit our needs. The view was amazing and the property owner kept us informed from start to finish. We will be back!

Location off condominium and rooms super good. and all experience been 100%. Will recommend and visit again.

We were very happy with the condo. It is as beautiful as the pictures show. The view is spectacular and we loved how close we were to restaurants, shopping and attractions. Phil was helpful and responded quickly to any questions. The beds were very comfortable and the condo was stocked with so many essentials. We would love to come back again in the future. Our only concern was packing our large van. It did not fit in the condo designated space but with Phil's help we resolved by using the guests spots.

This condo was perfect and exactly what we were looking for! The location cannot be beat and having the ocean right out the back was ideal. Phil was incredible to work with and very responsive, even having beach blankets sent to the condo when I asked if he had any. We will definitely be back! Thank you so very much!!

The nightly sunsets are gorgeous! The condo was as good as advertised and there were no disappointments. I would definitely stay again.

Great view, nice pool and hot tub. We enjoyed our stay and owner was very good at communicating.

We loved our stay. Wonderful view! There were issues with the bedding that were disappointing but the owner took care of it right away. The location is nice but we would have liked more things within walking distance. Stores and restaurants are a short drive or bike ride. Pool and hot tub were always the perfect temperature! We swam in 57 degree weather! They were very clean. Boat rental place was right across the street. Marine land rentals were the best! Highly recommend. Best coffee spot-Sweet Brewnettes in Madeira. Best cafe by far is Cafe de Paris in Indian Rocks. Aloha to Go was great just down the street. Condo was 10 minutes from Walmart and Publix. We loved our stay and will hopefully be back. Owner is great to work with!

This is a wonderful condo! We had a group of 8 adults and it was very spacious. The check in process was easy and Phil was extremely responsive. Our only issue was neither of our full sized, crew cab trucks fit in the assigned parking space, but Phil responded quickly, and we had no trouble parking in the guest spaces the entire week. The experience of New Years Eve on the beach was one of our best New Years ever. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

We had a great experience. The owner communicated clearly and made sure we had everything we needed. The condo was clean and comfortable and the views were incredible. Great for a family getaway.

Great location. Very clean. Easy checking. In. Beautiful view.

The property was beautiful, modern and clean. Well stocked, did not need to bring as much as we did. Sunsets are amazing from the balcony and we had a great time and the property was also pet friendly. Owners were great to work with.

We had a wonderful time. Condo was clean and comfortable. Phillip was wonderful to work with and very responsive. Great location and close to many restaurants.

Our family had an excellent stay at this condo. It’s very clean and has everything you need for a comfortable vacation. Beds and furniture were soft and cozy. The view is spectacular and the condo is in a great location with plenty to do within walking distance. We would definitely book again!

We very much enjoyed the beach, pool, and hot tub daily! Philip was very responsive to anything we needed.

Process was easy and secure!!

My family and I had a great visit at this condo. The place was updated, clean and close to the beach which made things easy for us. Phillip is very responsive and was always available to answer questions. He made the process easy. I highly recommend!!

Often the pictures/reviews do not match your experience and have rented many properties via VBRO. However the apartment was as advertised and owner did an excellent job setting up the condo. Great location and you will be able to relax as advertised!
