Perfectly fine renovated king bed room. Nice balcony. Beware - no central air, no a/c. Great location on the beach level - no need to climb stairs. Area is a bit low rent. 1/2 price of Inn at spanish head for better beach experience.

Clean room with a fantastic view, great location. One minute walk to beach, a balcony that was great (so long as the neighbors weren’t smoking on theirs, they are close) Comfortable, clean room close to grocery stores and restaurants.

The location was perfect and directly on the beach! Beautiful room with balcony that appears to be recently updated. LOVED the electric fireplace feature, updated bathroom, fridge and microwave. The view was incredible and you can hear the waves from the bed. Also, had a nice warm hot tub and pool that was indoors. Plenty of parking too. Awesome location I would come back again and again!

I stayed at different places on my trip, but Sandcastle Inn was by far my favorite!!! I mean, you really can't get any closer to the water!! Beach access was a breeze, and loved the beach. I had a balcony room and kept the slider open, the air, the view and the sounds of the ocean were incredible!!!
