We had a great time at The Sand Castle! It’s an older building that is well maintained, the beds were comfortable, the AC was very cold, water pressure and temps great! The pool was small but adequate it was nice having onsite dining options we loved the nightly live music and the oysters were fantastic! Overall a great short trip!

Decent option

The hotel is located on a quieter end of Virginia Beach, however the restaurant in the hotel has loud, live music at night so be prepared for that. It ends fairly early though, so that's good. The hotel was clean, right on the beach, and it looks like all rooms have a beach view. The beds weren't the nicest hotel beds I've ever experienced, but ok for the price.

not a good couples place to stay at all

the bed was hard as a rock and the 2nd bed was broken on one side. the pool area was not as inviting as was showen in the pictures they where doing work under us causing a bad oder to come into our room and i felt like we where treated like we where crazt till i insisted someone come to our room and smell it for them selfs only then did they agree to move if but only if i felt there was no way i would be able to stay in that room. the experance just was not what we had hoped so we even checked out a day early because we just did not enjoy the hotel. the breakfast was very poor too it was not enjoyable at all

I enjoyed the size of the property and that there was two restaurants attached. The view was great as well. Getting in and out the parkkng garage was a bit scary, the breakfast was not great at all. Definitely wish it was ab actual hot breakfast but we made due.

Worth the price and the service isn't bad!

The condition of our room was only okay at best- lots of cracks and hole within the bathroom and walls; we had a toss up with room service.. the first woman we had cleaned our room immaculately! The second, cleaned our bed, yet somehow it was covered in sand head to toe before we got into it.. making it seem like sheets were recycled, the third gentleman was great! We adored out time in the pool, AND got massive Clorine headaches from swimming in it. The woman running breakfast was BY FAR our favorite part. She is personable, great at her job, and my toddler adored her. She made our morning bright and cheerful. We would definitely return just to have that experience again. The continental breakfast was also fantastic! My only complaint is needing better creamer- but that's most hotels.

Thumbs down.. but BEAUTIFUL

There was leftover Chinese food in the refrigerator, dirty sheets on the pull out bed and the ones they did bring us had cigarette burns … but the view was beautiful and there was a lot of room for our family of 5 in the suite with two rooms two bathrooms. A pull out couch with a small bathroom and a king size bed with full size bathroom.

I think the person who cleaned my room might have gotten interrupted. The bed was made with clean sheets. The toilet hadn't finished being cleaned and the floor in the bedroom had not been swept or vacuumed. Also the balcony door was unlocked.
