Property was just as pictured and described. Beautiful home with lots of room and everything you could need. Host was absolutely fantastic and very responsive. We had an issue with the stove keeping temp and he responded right away and fixed it on the spot. We had some folks leave items behind and he reached out to find out if they belonged to us and agreed to ship them to us. Host is great and very honest!
The overall stay and property was great! There was plenty of room for our large family and the large kitchen was great for cooking. A couple of things we did notice was that some of the furniture in the living room and some of the beds could be replaced a few people did not sleep well due to the beds. Also the cleanliness could have been better. It appeared the cleaners just did a quick surface clean and there was mold in the some of the bathrooms. Overall though would stay there again.
Celebrating or 50th wedding anniversary with our family
It was a perfect home for our children and grandchildren to gather- each family had their own room and bathroom, the bunk room was a bonus for the kids.We have a grandson who has cerebral palsy the elevator and large spaces helped him to be more independent. The weather that week was extremely hot and humid which made the pool and ocean a hit! There was a special feel to the home, we loved it and will cherish the memories made. Interesting thing, 8 years ago we gathered as a family in a large home on the beach in Oregon, its name was also Sand Castle- the name must be good luck for our family! Thank you Larry and Rose for sharing your home
It was as good as advertised, plenty of room to relax after a long day at the beach. Very good kitchen with the double refrigeratorâs & microwaveâs extra large stove. Just a great place for our group.
We enjoyed the large spaces and neighborhood! We took full advantage of the lovely decks!!!Some of the TVs are not working. In the kitchen need more pots pans(not rusted) and pool needs cleaning! We would return here!! Thank you for making the process so easy.
We rented this beautiful home for our family to stay in during our sonâs wedding. It was a wonderful experience being able to have parents, grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins under the same roof. We had a lovely visit. It was large enough to accommodate us very comfortably with room to spare. Incredibly responsive hosts! Would highly recommend!
We brought down a group of runners and their families for the BAM Oak Island Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1 mile. This was the PERFECT house to accommodate our group. Very clean and pretty. The hot tub was a huge hit! The kitchen and dining spaces were great for preparing and serving large meals. The bedrooms and living spaces were very comfortable! The owners were great and quick to respond. Will definitely stay at the Sandcastle house again!
There was so much space for people to be doing different activities in several areas of the house. Enough rooms and bathrooms that there was never any issues with any cramping of style. Highly recommend
We had a family reunion here and it was a blast! The house had everything we needed, and the location was amazing. So close to the ocean, great beach town. We will definitely stay again!
The house is amazing! There is so much room and everything is absolutely perfect! We had 23 people stay for a long weekend and had no issues! Larry and Rose are great to work with! We would definitely stay there again if we are in the area!
Our trip at oak island beach with family was so enjoyable. However, our rental was unacceptable âŠ.. The house itself was big and spacious and well stocked.
However, it is roach infested, very dirty mold in the bathrooms and showers many of the appliances were not working or broken and very unclean. The ice maker not working, one side of oven was broken, hot tub and pool needed attention, outside grill not cleaned rusted out.
Though the owner responded to our concerns the problems were unresolved.
I have stayed and rented many properties. This is the first time Iâve had issues of these concerns and so I would not stay here again or Recommend this home to anyone.
Great property with loads of bedrooms, plenty of space for gathering, huge kitchen, and ample decks for stretching out and enjoying the area. Just a short walk to the beach and pier to boot!
We had 12 people and were all comfortable, managed yoga by the pool one day, and a few other practices on the upstairs deck area - with birds chirping and breeze blowing. Being in a neighborhood was a nice touch, for sure.
Excellent communication with the owner and had everything we needed for a successful gathering. Would have liked to have a bit more large service ware for serving meals, but we were able to manage.
There is some ceiling damage in the main level living room but nothing that took away from being able to enjoy the house and the space. We did have a few people in the pool but did not venture into the hottub this trip.
Excellent source for seafood is a few blocks away and local provisions under 2 miles - a great spot and a relaxing weekend gathering. Would definitely stay again!
This property is a short walk to the beach and has tons of space for gathering together or for having space to yourself. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds are comfortable. Thanks to the owners for clear communication and quick responses for any questions.
We moved to the area nearly 20 years ago, and we love Oak Island. We have been watching this home for a while as we already had two additional rentals on the Island (Wine and Roses- 6 bedrooms and Rhapsody in Blue - 7 bedrooms). We saw this beautiful property was available and couldn't pass it up.
As this home typically accommodates larger groups, we are happy to offer you role playing kits, upon request. This includes murder mysteries for the adults and other mysteries to solve for the younger group.
