This condo is excellent! The host was so easy to communicate with and went over and beyond our expectations. The view was absolutely amazing and just steps from the beach, which was what we were looking for. The sunset from the balcony was amazing! Great condo!!!

Indian Shores is a quiet family friendly vacation spot. Sand Castle Condo is perfectly situated between Clearwater and St. Petersburg making the activities and restaurants to choose from plentiful. The sunsets from the balcony were fantastic. The beach was beautiful, not crowded and umbrella rental was available. We enjoyed using the pool and it was kept very clean.

We like sand castle 1 and have stayed there many times. Couple of things though, both elevators are never working at the same time and this time we had a group a floor below us that smoked Marijuana constantly. One night and two different days both elevators stopped working. The unit itself was fine and the host was polite and responded to each email I sent about the issues.

Perfect Spot on the Beach!

We absolutely loved our stay here! We had everything we needed and we loved how convenient the walk to the beach was. We enjoyed our hot coffee on the balcony each morning while taking in the breathtaking view of the ocean. I would highly recommend staying at this property!
