Sandcastle Inn

We had to take our dirty towels to the front office and exchange them every single day We were told they were suppose to clean rooms every day. However we never had our room cleaned our entire 5 days there The hotel was great other than that

Had the best time. Love this little hotel. Very retro vibe but clean. Would recommend bringing some over the door hooks and or a drying rack. Also hangers. No hooks in the room for towels and or wet suits. Staff is very friendly and so were the other families staying. Safe location and walking distance to anything you could want on the island. Love the pool area and super easy/ fast walk to the beach. We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful experience! Good value for the money.

Location and the lack of access to the beaches

The rooms were clean and well equipped. The staff was very nice and helpful. We were able to rent beach chairs, which was an awesome bonus. The property is retro and as advertised. Not fancy and could use some upgrades, but perfect for a budget friendly beach getaway. Great location.

The stay started out well enough, our room was ready when we arrived and there was parking available. A quick review of the room was okay except of the mold on the caulking in the bathroom and peeling paint on the bathroom door. Later that evening we found that the bathroom sink drained very slowly - like hours. The first day we went to the beach most of the day (quick walk which was nice) and came back with no room service. Didn't make a big deal about it, got some towels and went on with our evening. The next day when we came back and our room wasn't touched again my friend went to discuss with the office. She was told that she should have complained the first day but they would be sure to get our room the next day. Our room now had 3 days worth of towels and sand from the beach. On the 3rd day we came back early (like 3ish) and our room still had not been touched. I went to the office and they said we were to get a "Full Service" but they had to get to the rooms with new reservations first. We went to dinner and come back to a room where we had new towels (old towels removed) and the bathroom had been cleaned and the floors mopped (although sand was still visible). The sheets had NOT been changed or the beds remade - so much for their "FULL SERVICE". I would not stay again.

The hotel room was fantastically clean. It was a quiet stay. The room was not as outdated as some. Our room did have some broken features, and there was next to no water pressure. It was a fair trade-off for a great price and a great location. I would stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Sand Castle. The pool was salt water and very clean. The walk to the beach was short. The location was excellent and in reach of many restaurants and shopping locations. The beds were okay but could use an upgrade. For the price compared to others we really enjoyed our stay.

The proximity to the beach

This place may have been one of the more heinous places I have ever stayed. Upon opening the door to the room, mold every where, a dead cockroach right by the bed, numerous live cockroaches strolling around, nothing at all had been cleaned and they had the audacity to ask for tips for housekeeping. Thankfully I always bring towels of my own because theirs were covered in hairs, I had to use their towels as rugs as to not collect cockroaches on my toes. This stay ought to be refunded.

The shower was hot, the staff was very friendly, the towels were very clean, and the location was about a 5 minute walk to the beach. The property could really use some updating. There was a huge creak in the shower (about the size of my hand), the faucet was hanging off the wall about an inch and a half, there were large chips in the sink, and the sheets felt extremely cheap. Also, when we were in the pool, there was a strong stench of garbage because the dumpster was right behind the pool.

It’s always a fun place

The Staff was wonderful. It was a good value, great location, clean and very comfortable. No complaints

Nothing. It was great!

This hotel was a very good value for the money and we will be staying there again on one of our future trips to Tybee. The beds were comfy and they actually gave you nice, fluffy, pillows that were actually large enough. The hotel is older, however, you are within 500 feet of the beach. The rooms were clean, the heat/air worked and kept the room at a comfortable temperature. We were really satisfied overall with everything about the hotel. We were at the beach to be at the beach not live in our hotel.

Parking need some work, short beds

We killed 3 baby roaches the day we were leaving

The room was very clean, staff was very friendly and proficient. Its not a luxury inn, it provides a place to sleep and shower. It needs a little maintenance like shower needed some caulking & sink surface was worn & chipped. Other than that, it was a good place to stay, 3 min walk to the ocean.

Parking is very tight fitting. Ice maker for back rooms doesn’t work have go to front of building to get ice. Toilet made loud running sound when other rooms used theirs. But was close to Shops and Beach. Would stay again. Just needs a little attention to some things.

Very good price. 3 minute walk to the beach. Quiet. Clean. Great staff.

Friendly staff and extremely close walk to the beach. AC/Fan was great and there was no smoke smell in the room, which is very rare nowadays. While the beds and overall room was clean, the rooms could use a type of remodeling as the sink and bathroom were older and slightly broken only temporarily fixed with sealant or new caulk. The door also had a half inch gap which let in alot of light and sounds from outside.
