Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Bay D. 22 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Loved the condo and location We loved the condo and the location however the property manager of Sandcastle was horrible. Me and my children were in the pool which stated that it closed at 10pm. It was 9:45 and we were well aware of the rules. However, he rushed us and stared at my teenage children and was very rude to them saying that he has to close the pool at 10pm even though it was not 10pm yet. I spoke up and told him that we were aware of the rules and that I was their parent he backed up and continued to stare over them until we were so uncomfortable we left. The following night he turned the lights off on them in the pool at 9:45 however did not come out there to them. He was also drinking the first night and had sat his beer down before rushing my children. He also did not put any cushions out on the chairs around the pool on any of the days. We went and got them out ourselves and put them on. Other than the property manager it was great. ##### Bay D. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Donna D. 6 Sept 2025 ##### Donna D.
