Sand Castle - True Oceanfront Home!
Set directly on the ocean, this 8000 square foot home offers both privacy and luxury for your next gathering of family and friends. As you approach the home and pass the detached garage, you'll wind around a bricked bath to enter a lovely, bricked courtyard surrounded by lush landscaping. You'll feel the weight of the world lift off your shoulders as you follow the courtyard and enter this luxurious mansion. The open floor plans allows the Atlantic Ocean to greet you from the moment you walk into the home with floor to ceiling grand windows strung along the back of the home.
To the right of the entrance is a fun lounge space completed by a blue sofa and large TV perfect for gaming. An adjacent full bathroom is located between the lounge and game room. Just past the bathroom is game room which includes a multi-functional game table, fun décor, and ceiling LED rope lights. The game table is both a pool table and air hockey table for hours of fun!
Walking forward from the front doors you'll be greeted with a gorgeous, open family room with a grand linen sectional and a large, decorative telescope, HD Smart TV. The family room includes an office space that overlooks the ocean as well as a queen sleeper sofa. To the left of the family room is a formal living room with cozy seating while overlooking the ocean. A lovely spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails.
Adjacent to the living room is the oceanfront dining room. A sprawling, gorgeous dining table allows the entire group to dine together. The fully remodeled kitchen is adjacent to the dining area and includes bar stools for additional seating. The kitchen comes fully stocked for all of your cooking needs and includes all new appliances. The laundry room and half bathroom are located just past the kitchen. Just past the laundry room is the first guest bedroom containing a king bed, Smart TV, and a private entrance to the bricked courtyard. This is the only bedroom located on the first floor.
Near the entrance of the home lies a grand staircase leading you to the second floor. Located on the left is the oceanfront primary suite. A king bed, HD, Smart TV, and sitting enable this room to become a retreat within a retreat. The adjoining primary bathroom contains a two separate vanities, a spacious walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet.
There are three other guest bedrooms and one additional full bathroom located on the second floor of the main house. One of the guest bedrooms includes a queen bed and a Smart TV. An additional guest bedroom includes ocean views, a Smart TV, and a king bed. The last guest bedroom on this level includes ocean views, a Smart TV, and 2 twin/twin bunk beds. Please note that bunk bedroom has glass French doors instead of a traditional bedroom door so this is a better room for tiny travelers. The full guest bathroom includes a walk-in shower.
Stroll back across the bricked courtyard and up the exterior staircase which takes you above the detached garage and into a private guest house. The guest house boasts an outdoor balcony and sitting space that allows you to look over the main house and gaze upon the ocean waves. The guest house holds a large living room complete with a queen murphy bed and a Smart TV, a full-sized kitchen that comes fully stocked, and a dining area. The guest house also contains not one but two identical bedrooms with 2 ensuite identical bathrooms. Each bedroom hosts a king bed, Smart TV, and ensuite bathrooms with walk-in showers. Grandparents have been known to seek refuge in this peaceful guest house!
Back through the bricked courtyard lies an extended bricked path along the side of the home leading you to your private, oceanfront deck. The sprawling deck includes an outdoor dining area to enjoy oceanfront meals and breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. To access the beach steps from the back patio, guests must walk through the grass which is on a slope. Then, you must step up into the beach steps. This may be somewhat challenging for those with limited mobility.

While this home has ample parking, we do not allow any trailers or recreational vehicles to be parked on-site. We can refer you to an off-site parking company upon request. One vehicle, or the motorcycle equivalent, can park in the garage. Up to 3 additional vehicles can park in the driveway. This means guests can have up to 4 vehicles at the home or the motorcycle equivalent.
Items of note: The outdoor table was previously a firepit but is now just used as a table. There is a decorative only balcony on the second floor of the main house facing the ocean. There's no way to access it because it is only decorative. We do not advertise a firepit or oceanfront balcony in the listing but we like to make a point to ensure guests are aware as they may notice these items when they arrive. The front door path is paved with pavers and currently inaccessible due to safety reasons. It cannot be redone until the Fall due to guests occupying the property continously until then. Guests simply go on the pathway to the back of the house which is coded as well.
To ensure you receive the best possible cleaning experience, we do not allow Saturday departures during Spring and Summer school breaks and Bike Week. Simply enter any departure date other than Saturday in those seasons to see a quote and book online instantly.

We had a great experience at this property. We had 15 in our party and could have slept a few more. We are already trying to come up with a date to do it again. We will be back. The place is in great shape. And clean.
We had an incredible experience at the Sand Castle. Absolutely perfect for our big family. Stunning views. Easy to check in and out. Everything worked. Everything we needed was there. Host very accommodating. It is a beautiful property.
Overall we enjoyed the property - the views were awesome and the access to the beach was great. Everyone from all ages enjoyed the stay and the loaction of the home is in the perfect spot so if you need anything it was a quick ride. Any issues that were had were solved quickly and in a timely manner.
We rented this property for our annual staff retreat. It exceeded our expectations with a patio and steps to the beach. We were beachfront and had a beautiful view from inside house and the spacious patio. We had 20 people and it worked great for us. Plan to visit again int he future.
We came to Florida for our daughter’s wedding. We wanted to stay somewhere by the beach for a mini vacation as well. The house is beautiful, spacious and had plenty of room for our family and some friends. We would love to stay there again sometime.
We had a family reunion and had a great stay. Kitchen was well stocked to make meals for 14-20 people. The view was spectacular. There’s some external repairs going on but inside the house was impecable. The beds were all nicely decorated and ver comfortable. Will likely try to return every year.
There were 15 of us staying at the house for 5days and we loved it! Being on the beach was definitely the highlight of our stay. The house was clean, the managers were in contact with us and very responsive to anything we needed. The house is older but they have done a pretty good job of remodeling and updating. And the decor is super cute. Thank you for such a great stay! It was a very relaxing vacation in much needed warmth!!!
The house was a perfect choice for our family reunion. There were a few minor issues but they were resolved almost immediately. The best location, the best beaches, and the amenities are abundant. The only thing we wish for is direct access to the beach, but we managed. Would definitely return to this house for our next reunion.

Perfect to get away with family and friends.
The view and location were perfect, has enough space, bedrooms, and bathrooms, towels. Only the game table was not working. There were only small details about cleaning, but everything else was perfect.
Great property right on the water for larger groups. The open concept first floor is amazing - guests can hang out together or break up into smaller groups as desired. The game room was very popular as well. Conveniently located, the property is five minutes from grocery stores, pharmacies, etc.. While there wasn't much sun during our visit, the views of the ocean were still amazing. Access to the beach was easy as well. Thanks in large part to this property, we had a great time during our visit!
The property was exactly as pictured. The beach and location was near perfection. The home was clean and well appointed. We had a great time. The propane tank was empty and they sent someone immediately with a refill. We will be back.
Great home and awesome time. We just misssed the hurricane but our weather was awesome. It's such a fun area and great to be able to put on your trunks and walk the beach or go in for a nice morning wake me up. We did have a plane delay and the host was gracious enough to give us a few more hours at the home as we waited for our flights to get unscrambled. Thank you.
The 4 star rating was because there were spiderwebs and dust on the cabinet against the wall in the living room. Who builds a beach house with no towel bars in the master bathroom? Your online listing picture showed the level beach right up to the patio. It did NOT show the big drop-off to get to the beach--very disappointing for elderly guests and transporting beach gear. We did like the long dining table. We did enjoy our family stay.

Family Birthday Celebration
We rented this property to celebrate my mother in law’s 80th birthday. The inside pictures of the house in the listing are accurate. The beach is gorgeous. The back of the house was a construction site. The deck was in the middle of being replaced, half of it was finished while the other half was bare. This made it uneven and easy to trip. There were also pavers lined up on both sides of the deck. The path down to the beach IS NOT a gentle slope, it is steep, and difficult to navigate up and down. Certainly not easy or safe for an 80 year old. The A/C was also not working, which we unfortunately found out our last night when the temperature outside warmed up. The fire pit is also unusable and unfixable. Although the location is beautiful this house needs many repairs and updates.
Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The home was beautiful and well kept! We may never have to look for another beach house again. The host was extremely accommodating and kind! Aside from being gorgeous the home was right on the beach! 10/10!!!
Excellent experience. Would consider staying there again.

A large house in a stellar location right on the beach — so convenient and desirable for our family reunion. Ample kitchen and seating. The reconstruction around the front door and walkway was unfortunate. When WiFi & AC broke down, repairs were made the same day.
