                                        We rented both floors here at Sandcastle and absolutely loved the spacious floorplans. We felt right at home and very comfortable here. The weather was fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We look forward to returning next year to keep up the tradition. Thanks for the memories! ------------ What a good time we had! This place is super! It was just so close to being at home. It seems that everything was thought of to make our stay as smooth as possible. If you are into the family vacation as we are, this house and this island are the place to spend it!

                                        We had a great time in this place. Hopefully, we can come back next year for some more beach fun. We had lots of space in the house with a great back porch. Thanks for everything!

                                        We had a great time. The beach was fun, and the water was really warm. The house was very convenient and we had a great family reunion.

                                        We rented both floors and it was perfect! Close to the beach, stores, and activities. We really enjoyed the Mote Aquarium in Sarasota--very educational and the hands-on tanks were fantastic for the kids. The dwelling was nice and spacious for our crowd. This was all of our's first trip to the Gulf except for 2 of us out of 16, I'd like to thank Shelina for providing the mixers. We definitely used them. We cooked every night and morning. Good to have a spacious kitchen (2 of them). Hope to be back next summer!

                                        Great place and location! Thoroughly enjoyed the beach, especially during the 4th!! Fireworks were fantastic. Ellenton shoppin outlet, 20 minutes away -- very nice!

                                        The place was great! The Anna Maria Pier restaurant was awesome. We will return again!

                                        I'm blessed that my son invited us to spend these days here. We had the best of times. I'm only sorry that the days flew by! Thanks for the fond memories!
