My new Ochi spot!

I really enjoyed my stay at this property! I used to stay at Sancastles all the time growing up, but this listing was definitely an UPGRADE. Frank (host) and Shelly (housekeeper) were fantastic, friendly, attentive, and easy to get in contact with during my stay. Everything was clean, modern, and felt “home-y.” I will be returning, for sure!

Idyllic Setting

We stayed at Frank’s property for three days with my husband and teenage daughter, and it was a wonderful experience. Upon arrival, we found that the property looked exactly like the pictures—modern, airy, bright, and impeccably clean. The apartment was well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including towels, blankets, a super cold A/C, kitchenware, and more. While I had read some complaints about evening noise in the courtyard, it wasn't an issue for us. Frank has no control over that area, but honestly, the noise was minimal and didn't bother us at all. The apartment is located on Main Street in a lively area, where you can enjoy the vibrant city sounds and soak in the great atmosphere. Ms. Shelly, the onsite property manager, was an absolute delight. She greeted us warmly, provided all the necessary information for our stay, and was quick to accommodate any requests we had. Overall, I would definitely book this property again!

Property was very modern, clean, fresh and absolutely spotless, with excellent, modern facilities. The location of the property within The Sandcastles complex is perfect, especially if like myself one has kids, as it is directly opposite the pool and the bar!!! Both the property owner - Frank, and the host - Shelly were very nice and ALWAYS easily contactable. I loved the property so much, I was able to extend for a few extra nights!!! I will definitely be staying there again!!!
