A truly special place to stay - great memories
Marketed differently, the Sandcastle could be a tourism attraction on it's own right - an architectural passion project of an eccentric millionaire.
Let me just say that the photos - which are great - simply don't do the actual property justice. This is a place you need to actually see to believe.
For starters, they don't begin to capture the scale of the building and the grounds. It's huge. We were at guest capacity and never felt crowded. Between gazebos, nooks and patios there were plenty of places to get away. The grounds themselves were huge and wonderfully maintained.
Secondly, the photos don't give a sense of the functionality. For a unique property like this, form can often come at the expense of usability, but here everything from the kitchen to the stairs and pool deck just made sense.
Third, the staff and crew were great. We were welcomed with a bottle of tequila (a great surprise after a long day of travel), and our property manager. At all times there was on-site security at the gatehouse and walking the grounds. Maintenance and hospitality were also present at various times to turn things over and make sure everything was working. Even with them there, we always felt private.
Overall, a great experience. Everyone felt very safe and really loved the Sandcastle. Wonderful memories. If there was one nitpick, the cost difference for additional guests is pretty high - the difference between, say 14 guests and 16 or 18 shouldn't add as much as it does.
