Beautiful, comfortable house with gorgeous surroundings!
The unit was beautiful and we enjoyed very much! We had a problem initially getting in the door for check in. I’m not sure if we just didn’t know to turn the bolt to open the door. So we had to wait 30 minutes to get it at first. Maybe more clear instructions about the front door lock! Overall super cost and comfortable! Loved the Golf cart!

My family of 4 had a wonderful time at the Martinique - it's like being in a vacation bubble and The Sand Castle was the perfect house. Plenty of space, very clean, comfy beds. If we get to come back we'll definitely book it again. I would highly recommend this spot.

We were pleasantly surprised with the decor, beds, too light on towels for a week, we had 2 large towel for the master bathroom, kitchen very clean & plenty of dishes to prepare meals & store leftovers. Need to upgrade from dish TV there were outages during high winds a few nights. Roku is great! Loved the golf cart & pet friendly. We would book again.
