Good to be back in the BVI
When I was looking for a place to stay and found Sandcastle I imagined my almost two year old granddaughter playing on that beach- and it lived up to all expectations. The house is beautiful and well appointed with kayaks, sand toys, floats and wonderful sunsets. Heather was very attentive.

Beautiful Setting
Beautiful home on the beach. Great setting! Close to restaurants and shopping. The property managers were very attentive. The internet was in and out and the oven didn’t work. I’m sure the owner is working on both now.
