we didn’t feel safe having the patio open to the main road. There were people frantically knocking our door at 8pm then later during the night. We didn’t feel safe having the atio facing the mai. road and open to the public. Who on earth would like to have a hotel room like that? I would rather have patio facing the beach. Whoever designed that wasn’t thinking of the occupants’ safety. We chose the hotel coz it’s by the beach, and when I booked it says, ocean view, but we were given “street view”. I won’t book this hotel again.

Lovely hotel. The location is excellent and right on the beach, it is walking distance to the pier, restaurants, etc. We stayed in the main building. Staff was very friendly at check in, and they lend you beach chairs and towels and buckets to take to the beach. It is not a ‘resort’ so there is no pool or anything, only a front patio area-which is nice and comfortable with great views- and there is a small cafe offering some food and drink options. We stayed in the main building and were comfortable. We will likely be back soon!

Our room 100 was looking at first pretty awesome. However, it has a lack of maintenance, some things were almost falling apart, like the kitchen cabinet. The fan in the bathroom was pretty noisy. On the other side of the wall there is an office and we could understand everything since the walls seems so tiny and not insulated at all. Also, charging 25$ a night for the parking seems too much. For the pros, we appreciated the fireplaces on the deck, especially with the cold temperature we had.

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. Very nice hotel right on the beach … beautiful views, comfortable rooms and really friendly staff. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire pits at The Deck and loved the coffee and food offered there. Perfect spot to relax! We will definitely stay here again.

Just steps from the beach, we loved our stay at the Sandcastle Inn. The Deck (lounge restaurant onsite) had quick light bites available almost all day with great views. The hotel has bikes available to rent and an excellent location with a small parking lot for self park. The room was clean and had a comfy bed and a mini fridge, the bathroom was a tad small and the walls between rooms/hallways were super thin. I had a couple work conferences during the day and the people in my zoom call could hear the rowdy children thru the wall next door. I would stay again for a beach visit where I don't plan on having to work from the room most of the day!

Very nice. Clean, cozy, right on the beach and very close to pier. Everyone was so nice. The only bummer was the close the decks and turn off the fire pits early. Especially on a Friday night. It wouldve been nice to chill outside later on a beautiful night.

The room was smaller than the rest on our floor and there was stains of liquid all over the walls, drains were slow in shower and sink, and the carpet was gross... stained and sticky. More attention should be put into the room cleanliness.

Great location but the room wasn’t that great. The smell of mold and dampness was apparent. And while it seemed to have been renovated to a degree, you could tell it was poorly done.

I stayed in the King Suite, told this was a premium best room, but they did not tell me it was outside of the hotel while all the other rooms were indoors. The bar and restaurant stated in the descriptions and photos were nothing but a service counter for coffee or drinks. No bar to sit at, no restaurant to order and sit at a table. The fire pits were nice but one has to race to enjoy one as they weren’t as plentiful, as seen in the photos. We ordered food from a menu using a bar code but the food was less than the photo as well. I was very disappointed in the stay, but the service was excellent as was the bedding and pillows.
