Set directly on the ocean in a quiet residential stretch of Daytona Beach Shores, Sand Castle offers both privacy and luxury for your next gathering of family and friends. This 8,000 square foot oceanfront home has room for everyone to spread out, with a main house, a private guest house and an oceanfront deck with steps leading down to the beach. Less than a 5 minute walk away, Frank Rendon Park features a fun playground right on the beach for the kids. Just a 7 minute walk away, The Shores Resort and Spa offers a full-service spa along with multiple restaurants and lounges. The peaceful neighborhood keeps evenings quiet, and the rest of Daytona Beach's dining and attractions are just a short drive away.
As you approach the home and pass the detached garage, you'll wind along a bricked path into a lovely bricked courtyard surrounded by lush landscaping. You'll feel the weight of the world lift off your shoulders as you follow the courtyard and enter this luxurious mansion. The open floor plan lets the Atlantic Ocean greet you from the moment you walk in, with grand floor to ceiling windows lining the back of the home.
To the right of the entrance is a fun lounge space with a blue sofa and a large TV, perfect for gaming. A full bathroom sits between the lounge and the game room. The game room features fun décor, LED rope lighting along the ceiling, and a multi-functional game table that converts between pool and air hockey for hours of fun.
Walking forward from the front doors, you'll be greeted by a gorgeous open family room with a grand linen sectional, a large decorative telescope and an HD Smart TV. The family room also includes an office space overlooking the ocean and a queen sleeper sofa. To the left of the family room is a formal living room with cozy seating and ocean views, a lovely spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails.
Adjacent to the living room is the oceanfront dining room, where a sprawling, gorgeous dining table lets the entire group dine together. The fully remodeled kitchen sits next to the dining area, with all new appliances, bar stool seating, and everything you need for cooking. The laundry room and a half bathroom are just past the kitchen. Beyond the laundry room is the first guest bedroom, with a king bed, a Smart TV and a private entrance to the bricked courtyard. This is the only bedroom on the first floor.
Near the entrance, a grand staircase leads to the second floor. On the left is the oceanfront primary suite, a retreat within a retreat with a king bed, an HD Smart TV and a sitting area. The adjoining primary bathroom has two separate vanities, a spacious walk-in shower and a large walk-in closet.
Three more guest bedrooms and a full bathroom are also on the second floor of the main house. One guest bedroom has a queen bed and a Smart TV. Another has ocean views, a Smart TV and a king bed. The last guest bedroom on this level has ocean views, a Smart TV and two sets of twin over twin bunk beds. This bunk room has glass French doors instead of a traditional bedroom door, so it's best suited for tiny travelers. The full guest bathroom on this level includes a walk-in shower.
Stroll back across the bricked courtyard and up the exterior staircase to the private guest house above the detached garage. Its outdoor balcony and sitting area look out over the main house to the ocean waves beyond. Inside, the guest house has a large living room with a queen Murphy bed and a Smart TV, a full-size, fully stocked kitchen, and a dining area. It also has two identical bedrooms, each with a king bed, a Smart TV and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Grandparents have been known to seek refuge in this peaceful guest house!
Back through the bricked courtyard, an extended bricked path along the side of the home leads to your private oceanfront deck. The sprawling deck includes an outdoor dining area for oceanfront meals with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, and beach steps lead from the backyard down to the sand.
While this home has ample parking, we do not allow any trailers or recreational vehicles to be parked on-site. We can refer you to an off-site parking company upon request. Three vehicles, or the motorcycle equivalent, can park in the garage. Up to 2 additional vehicles can park in the driveway. This means guests can have up to 5 vehicles at the home, or the motorcycle equivalent.
Items of note: To reach the beach steps from the back patio, guests must walk across a sloped grassy area and then step up onto the beach steps. This may be somewhat challenging for those with limited mobility. There is also a decorative balcony on the second floor of the main house facing the ocean. It cannot be accessed because it is only decorative. We don't advertise an oceanfront balcony in the listing, but we like to make sure guests are aware since they may notice it when they arrive.

We had 4 small chidlren in our group. The property was in a great location and had a nice outdoor space for BBQ meals and out door activity. The beach was right out our door which made it so easy to run in for lunch and nap time. The facility had some normal wear and tear but was clean and comfortable. We had a great time.Virginia Myers

We had a great experience at this property. We had 15 in our party and could have slept a few more. We are already trying to come up with a date to do it again. We will be back. The place is in great shape. And clean.

It was the perfect amount of space for our large family and we loved waking up to the sound of the waves every morning. The home was beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds and sofas. The pool room and game room are great touches and provided entertainment for all. I loved that check-out wasn’t extensive as some we’ve stayed in. I do feel the home would really benefit from a hot tub on the deck, as it was very cold a few of the days of our stay and would have been nice to have. We would book again in the future for our family gatherings.

This place is fantastic !!! The house itself is amazing, lots of room for everyone. The furnishings are high quality and very comfortable. Everything was well thought out when they were designing the layout. There was 18 of us for a college graduation. Not one of us complained about the cleanliness- it was spotless. We had the best weather along with wonderful sunrises. We did not have any issues with the property - the kitchen was stocked with everything anyone would need on a trip. Check in/ out was very easy along with communication w / the owners. We will be back to place in the future - great location and great accommodations.

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The home was beautiful and well kept! We may never have to look for another beach house again. The host was extremely accommodating and kind! Aside from being gorgeous the home was right on the beach! 10/10!!!

We had a great time, the house is great for a large party. The unobstructed panoramic view off the back porch to the ocean is beautiful. But, this house could use those final touches which have to mentioned in pervious reviews. You'll definitely want to bring all of your toiletries especially important for those traveling with limited luggage. They only provide a bar of soap and thin towels.

We had a wonderful stay at the "Sand Castle". Right on the beach and the perfect setup for a large group. Communication was prompt and the property was well equipped. You can't go wrong with a rental here and we'd welcome the chance to stay again on a future visit

We came to Florida for our daughter’s wedding. We wanted to stay somewhere by the beach for a mini vacation as well. The house is beautiful, spacious and had plenty of room for our family and some friends. We would love to stay there again sometime.

We rented this property for our annual staff retreat. It exceeded our expectations with a patio and steps to the beach. We were beachfront and had a beautiful view from inside house and the spacious patio. We had 20 people and it worked great for us. Plan to visit again int he future.

The host was amazing and it was easy to communicate with them prior to check in! The beach view was beautiful. Kitchen was stocked and organized and the living room was nice and specious. Pool table and pong table provided hours of fun. Our only issue was the toilets periodically not flushing and due to it being a holiday, I chose not to put in an emergency call. Everyone used the master and downstairs bathrooms. The door handle in the in-law suite came apart and I again chose not to call because it was an easy fix for us to do. I am sure they would have fixed the problems but our booking was over a weekend and went into a holiday weekday. Overall it was a great house and location.

We wish we could have earned all 5 of your stars since it sounds like you all had a wonderful time! If we aren't made aware of a maintennace issue and given an opportunity to fix them, we don't find it fair to reduce your rating. A toilet clogged by a guest and not reported to us and a handle that happened to break but was an easy fix is not really a reason to give a poor rating.

A large house in a stellar location right on the beach — so convenient and desirable for our family reunion. Ample kitchen and seating. The reconstruction around the front door and walkway was unfortunate. When WiFi & AC broke down, repairs were made the same day.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to provide Oceans Luxury Realty with your honest feedback! I'm delighted to hear that you and your family had a great time at in this property! We wish we could have earned all 5 of your stars since it sounds like you all had a wonderful time! We do note the front door construction in the listing description and guests simply use the back door instead. I am so glad we were able to fix the AC and WiFi shortly after you reported it. Things can break, but we do our best to fix them as quickly as possible.
There were 15 of us staying at the house for 5days and we loved it! Being on the beach was definitely the highlight of our stay. The house was clean, the managers were in contact with us and very responsive to anything we needed. The house is older but they have done a pretty good job of remodeling and updating. And the decor is super cute. Thank you for such a great stay! It was a very relaxing vacation in much needed warmth!!!
