I had a delightful time at this resort. The peaceful beach setting allowed for a relaxing getaway, and the convenience of being close to local dining was a big plus. Although the accommodations were clean and modern, it was disappointing to find that some essential items were lacking during our stay. Overall, it’s a charming spot with a few areas for improvement.

This hotel offers a lovely beach environment and clean, spacious units, making it a solid choice for a getaway. However, some aspects like the need for room makeovers and the experience with maintenance work left much to be desired. The location provides easy access to the beach and nearby dining options, which is a plus, but a few service issues detracted from the overall experience.

I had a wonderful time staying at Beach Castle #15! The location is perfect, nestled between the beach and the bay, creating a serene atmosphere that's hard to beat. The accommodations were clean and comfortable, making for an enjoyable getaway. The staff, especially Shannon, was incredibly helpful and welcoming. While the pool was lovely, I did wish it offered more options for dining on-site. Overall, this place is a great find, and I can’t wait to return!
