The beach at the resort was an absolute dream for a honeymoon! We toured around the entire island during our honeymoon and kept saying that Sand Castles was the best choice! The drinks onsite were fantastic as well as the restaurant. The continental breakfast was a great way to start the day. We appreciated the snorkeling gear and the ability to take the kayaks out at no additional charge. The resort was so clean and everyone was so nice! We will absolutely be back again soon!

Amazing! We had the best time. Super clean and nicely decorated rooms with plenty of hot water and AC that works wonderful and actually had to turn up because it got a little cold (and I’m hot all the time). The beach is one of the best on the island. Food, drinks, service are fantastic. Already planning our trip for next year!

This was our second year staying here. Again no disappointments. Josh at the front desk was so helpful in telling us other options on where to eat and also things to do. It is quiet on the beach here and relaxing. They do a great job at catering to your needs. We will definitely staying here again. The owners are also wonderful and always making sure you have everything you need. Make sure you try the white chocolate bread pudding.

This is my second year in a row staying at Sand castles. I really do enjoy going the month of July. It’s quiet it’s warm and the ocean is calm. The staff and amenities are great. I plan on staying here every year.

Best stay in St Croix!

This must be one of the best stays in the island. Really cute property, great restaurant, very nice employees and good service, and the beach front is fabulous. We could have stayed there the whole weekend!! Highly recommend.

It was all wonderful, but the thing that stood out most was the incredible staff. Josh, in particular, went so far out of his way to be kind and helpful to a couple of newbies (us) who had entirely too many questions and had done far too little research about the island before arriving. Thanks, Josh! Oh, and the food! If you try nothing else, have the seafood chowder. The best I've had anywhere, and I'm a chowder fanatic. We will definitely be back once we get a few other bucket list trips out of the way. Highly recommended if you want a truly laid-back vacation without all the hype and crowds found at other resorts on other islands.

We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was great! My loved the drink options. Although the food could use a little more seasoning it was very relaxing to eat & drink beach side. The only thing I didn't like is that because our initial stay attempt was cancelled by the airline due to weather conditions (which, of course, was out of our control,) Sand Castle only refunded us 50% and charged us the full room rental amount when we rebooked. Sand Castle made an extra $500+ on us.
