My Mum and I spent 9 days with Katie and Jim at the Sandcastle Inn, what a nice family environment. Katie looked after everything for us and I think we will become life long friends. At the beach, close to amenites and great breakfasts. Katie took care of us and made sure we were not wanting for anything. more

We were very pleased with our choice. My husband wanted a place to unwind, and relax. I wanted somewhere warm. We found everything and more at the Sand Castle Inn. Our hosts, Katie and Jim, were most gracious and accommodating.. The rooms are traditional Mexican style, clean, well equipped and roomy.. The view of the Gulf and the crashing of... more

The Inn keeper picked us up at the airport and catered to our every need during our stay. The Inn was very clean and the rooms were nicely furnished and air conditioned. The pool is... more

Katie and Jim are the owner-operators and they provide great hospitality. Our objective... more

We stayed at the Sand Castle for eight days during February 2008 and enjoyed every minute. Katie is a great hostess who was always available to provide information and/or suggestions ... without making a pest of herself. We stayed on the lower level and were very comfortable. Our room had bottle water, a refrigerator, microwave and TV ... but we... more

Three of us stayed in the sand castle inn and Katie was very accommodating. It was better than staying with a friend. As an example we arrived late and Katie had a meat and cheese plate waiting for us when we arrived. Breakfast every morning was very nice and really tasty. Katie even made everything with soy for us.
