About this property
Sand Castle - True Oceanfront Home!
Set directly on the ocean, this 8000 square foot home offers both privacy and luxury for your next gathering of family and friends. As you approach the home and pass the detached garage, you'll wind around a bricked bath to enter a lovely, bricked courtyard surrounded by lush landscaping. You'll feel the weight of the world lift off your shoulders as you follow the courtyard and enter this luxurious mansion. The open floor plans allows the Atlantic Ocean to greet you from the moment you walk into the home with floor to ceiling grand windows strung along the back of the home.
To the right of the entrance is a fun lounge space completed by a blue sofa and large TV perfect for gaming. An adjacent full bathroom is located between the lounge and game room. Just past the bathroom is game room which includes a multi-functional game table, fun décor, and ceiling LED rope lights. The game table is both a pool table and air hockey table for hours of fun!
Walking forward from the front doors you'll be greeted with a gorgeous, open family room with a grand linen sectional and a large, decorative telescope, HD Smart TV. The family room includes an office space that overlooks the ocean as well as a queen sleeper sofa. To the left of the family room is a formal living room with cozy seating while overlooking the ocean. A lovely spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails.
Adjacent to the living room is the oceanfront dining room. A sprawling, gorgeous dining table allows the entire group to dine together. The fully remodeled kitchen is adjacent to the dining area and includes bar stools for additional seating. The kitchen comes fully stocked for all of your cooking needs and includes all new appliances. The laundry room and half bathroom are located just past the kitchen. Just past the laundry room is the first guest bedroom containing a king bed, Smart TV, and a private entrance to the bricked courtyard. This is the only bedroom located on the first floor.
Near the entrance of the home lies a grand staircase leading you to the second floor. Located on the left is the oceanfront primary suite. A king bed, HD, Smart TV, and sitting enable this room to become a retreat within a retreat. The adjoining primary bathroom contains a two separate vanities, a spacious walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet.
There are three other guest bedrooms and one additional full bathroom located on the second floor of the main house. One of the guest bedrooms includes a queen bed and a Smart TV. An additional guest bedroom includes ocean views, a Smart TV, and a king bed. The last guest bedroom on this level includes ocean views, a Smart TV, and 2 twin/twin bunk beds. Please note that bunk bedroom has glass French doors instead of a traditional bedroom door so this is a better room for tiny travelers. The full guest bathroom includes a walk-in shower.
Stroll back across the bricked courtyard and up the exterior staircase which takes you above the detached garage and into a private guest house. The guest house boasts an outdoor balcony and sitting space that allows you to look over the main house and gaze upon the ocean waves. The guest house holds a large living room complete with a queen murphy bed and a Smart TV, a full-sized kitchen that comes fully stocked, and a dining area. The guest house also contains not one but two identical bedrooms with 2 ensuite identical bathrooms. Each bedroom hosts a king bed, Smart TV, and ensuite bathrooms with walk-in showers. Grandparents have been known to seek refuge in this peaceful guest house!
Back through the bricked courtyard lies an extended bricked path along the side of the home leading you to your private, oceanfront deck. The sprawling deck includes an outdoor dining area to enjoy oceanfront meals and breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. To access the beach steps from the back patio, guests must walk through the grass which is on a slope. Then, you must step up into the beach steps. This may be somewhat challenging for those with limited mobility.

The majority of adult guests must be at least 25 years of age to book. After booking, Oceans Luxury Vacations will reach out to you via email in order to obtain a photo ID and an e-sign rental agreement. If you book a reservation anywhere other than AirBNB and your arrival date is 14 days away or less at booking, we do also need a photo of you holding your ID in order to verify your identity and prevent fraud.
Please note that unless you are booking on AirBNB, that even if you cancel outside of the cancellation window and receive a full refund, the "Administrative Fee" is never refundable.
While this home has ample parking, we do not allow any trailers or recreational vehicles to be parked on-site. We can refer you to an off-site parking company upon request. One vehicle, or the motorcycle equivalent, can park in the garage. Up to 3 additional vehicles can park in the driveway. This means guests can have up to 4 vehicles at the home or the motorcycle equivalent.
Items of note: The outdoor table was previously a firepit but is now just used as a table. There is a decorative only balcony on the second floor of the main house facing the ocean. There's no way to access it because it is only decorative. We do not advertise a firepit or oceanfront balcony in the listing but we like to make a point to ensure guests are aware as they may notice these items when they arrive. The front door path is paved with pavers and currently inaccessible due to safety reasons. It cannot be redone until the Fall due to guests occupying the property continously until then. Guests simply go on the pathway to the back of the house which is coded as well.
To ensure you receive the best possible cleaning experience, we do not allow Saturday departures during Spring and Summer school breaks and Bike Week. Simply enter any departure date other than Saturday in those seasons to see a quote and book online instantly.

It was the perfect amount of space for our large family and we loved waking up to the sound of the waves every morning. The home was beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds and sofas. The pool room and game room are great touches and provided entertainment for all. I loved that check-out wasn’t extensive as some we’ve stayed in. I do feel the home would really benefit from a hot tub on the deck, as it was very cold a few of the days of our stay and would have been nice to have. We would book again in the future for our family gatherings.

We had a great experience at this property. We had 15 in our party and could have slept a few more. We are already trying to come up with a date to do it again. We will be back. The place is in great shape. And clean.

We had a great time, the house is great for a large party. The unobstructed panoramic view off the back porch to the ocean is beautiful. But, this house could use those final touches which have to mentioned in pervious reviews. You'll definitely want to bring all of your toiletries especially important for those traveling with limited luggage. They only provide a bar of soap and thin towels.

The host was very responsive before our stay. We had no issues while we were there. They even had spices in the cabinet and most vacation rentals never have that. We had plenty of dishwasher pods, washing pods for clothes. Plenty of paper towels. Only need your own shampoo and conditioner along with more trash bags. But other than that lets talk about the view from this beach house! It was AMAZING! We really enjoyed staying here. There was plenty of room for all of us, and we had a good size group! Also relaly enjoyed hearing the waves at all times. If your looking for a great location with unimaginable views this is the place! We were here for bike week 2026 and it wasnt loud staying here even though there were motorcycles everywhere. Great location! We will definitely be staying here again! I highly recommend.

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The home was beautiful and well kept! We may never have to look for another beach house again. The host was extremely accommodating and kind! Aside from being gorgeous the home was right on the beach! 10/10!!!

We rented this property for our annual staff retreat. It exceeded our expectations with a patio and steps to the beach. We were beachfront and had a beautiful view from inside house and the spacious patio. We had 20 people and it worked great for us. Plan to visit again int he future.

A large house in a stellar location right on the beach — so convenient and desirable for our family reunion. Ample kitchen and seating. The reconstruction around the front door and walkway was unfortunate. When WiFi & AC broke down, repairs were made the same day.

We wish we could have earned all 5 of your stars since it sounds like you all had a wonderful time! We do note the front door construction in the listing description and guests simply use the back door instead. I am so glad we were able to fix the AC and WiFi shortly after you reported it. Things can break, but we do our best to fix them as quickly as possible.

We came to Florida for our daughter’s wedding. We wanted to stay somewhere by the beach for a mini vacation as well. The house is beautiful, spacious and had plenty of room for our family and some friends. We would love to stay there again sometime.

Great views! Amazing location!! But house is giving Moble home vibes, ceilings are extremely low on bottom floor. Also, the house is kind of slapstick together. The fire pit outside does not work. The worst part is there was no Internet for our entire stay. They claimed it was because they were working in the area but four days without Internet is a little extreme. The house just lacked general maintenance.

I'm sorry to see your categorization of this home. It's an oceanfront mansion and couldn't be more dissimilar from a manufactured home. We are very clear in the listing description that the table outside is just a table and not a firepit. We also did explain this to you as well and showed you where this information was in the listing and that there is no firepit amenity included in the listing. Spectrum was indeed doing a huge upgrade product in our area during your stay. Wifi did work at times during your stay, you did not explain that honestly, and it did just also go out for an hour or two hours at a time when they were shutting it down for the upgrades. We did apologize that this was happening during your stay but also explained it was affecting the entire city and outside of any host's control. You did not report any maintenance concerns to us during your stay so we are unsure what you are referring to in your review in that regard.
Great location. Great property. 5 stars. Directly on the ocean.

We had a wonderful stay at the "Sand Castle". Right on the beach and the perfect setup for a large group. Communication was prompt and the property was well equipped. You can't go wrong with a rental here and we'd welcome the chance to stay again on a future visit

We had a family reunion and had a great stay. Kitchen was well stocked to make meals for 14-20 people. The view was spectacular. There’s some external repairs going on but inside the house was impecable. The beds were all nicely decorated and ver comfortable. Will likely try to return every year.

There were 15 of us staying at the house for 5days and we loved it! Being on the beach was definitely the highlight of our stay. The house was clean, the managers were in contact with us and very responsive to anything we needed. The house is older but they have done a pretty good job of remodeling and updating. And the decor is super cute. Thank you for such a great stay! It was a very relaxing vacation in much needed warmth!!!

The house was a perfect choice for our family reunion. There were a few minor issues but they were resolved almost immediately. The best location, the best beaches, and the amenities are abundant. The only thing we wish for is direct access to the beach, but we managed. Would definitely return to this house for our next reunion.
