This was our second stay at Sandcastle. Great location and place to stay! Missed some amenities like a TV in bedrooms at night and a simple hair dryer. Could not have been much better though all and all!
great stay
Nice cottage, private back yard, tastefully decorated, on-street parking, so quiet, very close to the beach. Walkable town, but a golf cart is fun! Hope to visit again!
The property was perfect for our group of three couples. Our family had a great time being so close to the beach and 'into town'. A great place to stay and will stay here again when we come back to Cape Charles.
Beautiful house and absolutely perfect location. Very responsive owners. If you have young kids you can’t beat the house location and layout. Thank you!
Return guest to this perfect home. New outdoor shower was perfect for post beach clean ups. We enjoyed the enclosed porch one rainy evening. Can’t beat the location. Will be back next year!!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location is awesome. The beach is just across the road. The beds are comfortable. The house has a nice fenced in back yard. The outdoor shower is very nice. Only hitch for us was the coffee maker carafe was broken when we arrived so we had to go out to get coffee all week. Excellent house all around, would definitely recommend.
The house was beautiful and well appointed, comfortable, and clean. Excellent location even closer to the beach than it looks on a map. Great host communication.
We looked forward to our return stay and it didn’t disappoint! Beautiful, comfortable home - plus the screened porch, back yard, and being only steps away from the beach and downtown area are must haves.
We've spent several summers at Sand Castle — both before and after the renovation a couple years ago. The renovation was really well done, and made an already great house even better. The hosts are very kind and easy to work with. We hope to stay again next year!
This is a lovely property on a wonderful street in Cape Charles. Easy access to the beach and town. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back to stay again!
We had a short but delightful visit. Undoubtedly, the highlight of the property was its front porch. The updated kitchen and bathrooms added modern charm, while the open floor plan was perfect for social gatherings and cooking.
We had a great time playing cornhole in the fenced backyard, and the outdoor shower made clean-up easy. And best of all, the beach was just steps away.
This was our first stay at this location. Loved being so close to the beach and being able to bring our furbabies. The house was nice and spacious. We hope to return again next year.
Our second stay in Cape Charles at Sandcastle. Even better than the first! We had perfect beach weather, no rain, hot, humid, & warm bay water. We enjoyed cooking on the grill in the backyard, & especially liked the outdoor shower after a day on the beach.
Thanks, Bobby & Voe, we will be back!
Voe and Bobby have done a fantastic job in remodeling their home. Beautiful beach cottage just a few steps away from beach. Well appointed! We had a great stay!
Great location. Kitchen was great and central with plenty of stools to hang out there. Beds were comftorable. Fenced in back yard was nice to have with plenty of chairs to hang out. Out door shower was beneficial. Very up to date and clean.
House is perfect. Layout and location are wonderful. The outside shower was so appreciated after a day at the beach. My husband commented how clean the grill was and started right up. Beds were comfy. Definitely planning our next visit.
We liked our stay at the Sandcastle so much that we grabbed a last minute opening for a second trip this summer! Our second stay did not disappoint! In fact, in the month between our stays, the owners even upgraded a few things! It was hot when we were in town and the proximity to the beach couldn’t be beat! We again enjoyed the breezes on the front porch and relaxing showers in the outdoor shower! Looking forward to our next trip!!!
We absolutely loved this little slice of paradise. The house is very practical yet cozy and private, and you can’t beat the location. The sunsets from here are stellar too. Lastly, the hosts were super friendly and helpful. We hope to be able to stay again here in the future!
Our stay at the Sandcastle was, in a word, perfect! We’ve stayed in many houses in Cape Charles over the years and this was one of our favorites!!! The house itself was newly updated, with all of the amenities you need for a week at the beach. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked, and having three bathrooms is a huge bonus. The house is larger than it seems in the photos, allowing for plenty of space for us to spread out! Our favorite part of the house was the screened-in front porch - we enjoyed nearly every meal at the big table and loved spending our rainy afternoons there! The location of the house could not be any better - it’s less than a minute to the beach and a short walk to town and the park. We actually could hear the Saturday summer concert from the porch! We just returned home and we are already checking our calendar to book a stay for next year!
Nice cottage right across the street from the beach. Was great to cook on the grill & eat in the backyard, very private & fenced. Quiet neighborhood, except when the food trucks park across the street & run a generator all day. Loved going everywhere on the golf cart! Hosts are quick to respond to messages, and address any issues in a timely manner. Enjoyed our vacation, will be back! Thank you, Voe & Bobby!
