The house was absolutely perfect for my self, my husband and our grown up children to celebrate our youngest daughterâs 18th. The many activities and the variety of spaces catered for everyoneâs needs. Everything we needed was at our fingertips - a home away from home
We had a lovely long weekend stay at The Sandcastle. The house was spotlessly clean, very well appointed with nothing else needed, with very comfortable beds and couches. We had a relaxing time- even our fur babies enjoyed the yard. The host was very attentive, responding to our queries quickly. We highly recommend staying at The Sandcastle - plenty of room for everyone. 5
The property had everything we could ever need as a family including space for everyone and plenty of games and things to do.. We even made use of some of the wetsuits at the property for our teens.. Clear instruction's on how to use anything and everything throughout the property and what to do if anything went wrong.. Beds were so comfy and all linen and towels provided which helped with space in our car when packing.. We really did feel very spoilt compared to other properties we have stayed in. The only negative was a cranky neighbour complaining when our teenage girls were playing an excited game of table tennis and listening to music between 2030-2100pm one night and unfortunately it did dampen the rest of the night and in turn kept us from using the shed for the rest of the holiday.. Lucinda was very apologetic and we totally understand they are stuck in between a rock and a hard place, but plans to line the shed should solve the problem for all.. Overall The Sandcastle was the perfect holiday home.. !
We had such a lovely family stay here. The personal touches from the host, Lucinda, were so appreciated and she is so accommodating. And great communication. So much to do. Kids loved the games room plus the upstairs area. Beds were comfortable, great fire pit. Just wonderful and would stay again. Everything you could need and definitely felt like a home rather than a house. Thank you.
We chose The Sandcastle for our annual family getaway with our daughters and their partners and one 10 year old granddaughter. Everyone appreciated the space, comfort and activities available to enjoy in this lovely clean, spacious, bright and welcoming home. Communication with the host was easy and very helpful.
Stayed for 3 nights in this great house, lots of space and perfect location , in walking distance to shops, cafes and horse shoe bay. Games room to entertain all ages. Thanks Lucinda, you have thought of everything, with all the extra homely touches. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!
Excellent property. Exceptionally clean and tidy. Our host Lucinda was so lovely and replied quickly to any questions. There is nothing you need to bring except food and clothing as the home has absolutely all you need even down to the finest details - they have thought of everything. Very close to shops and cafes/hotels.
Would highly recommend as we will look forward to staying again .
.........."The Sand Castle" at Port Elliot........Amazing!!
This place is spot on - what you see, and what's promised is exactly what you get - very well appointed in every aspect - we've stayed in other (very nice) accommodation along that stretch of coast over the years, however "The Sand Castle" was at the next level - we'd definitely go back!!........and our host Lucinda made certain that the process from booking through to departure was seamless - great communication...five stars from us!!
Oh my goodness the hostess with the mostest Is Lucinda! She simply could not do enough for us!
The sandcastle has absolutely EVERYTHING and more that you would want for a gorgeous weekend away with girlfriends
Walking distance to the beach and the main st for coffee
Thankyou Lucinda- we would love to come back! Xxxx
Our stay was exceptional from the little touches that were there for the two year old fun games for the young adults & the just relaxing time for the older adults, just what we all needed.
Beautiful house and the best location (short walk to Main Street) Communication was excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
We have just spent a wonderful Christmas week at The Sandcastle. Excellent holiday home with everything you need. Great communication with host. Good location with easy walk into main area of Pt Elliot. Beach access up the hill but an easy walk. Home is well laid out with good areas upstairs and down. Third toilet an extra bonus! Great kitchen with ample crockery/cutlery, pantry cupboard and two door fridge/freezer.
Facilities were easy to manage for a disabled and visually impaired adult and her dog. Can highly recommend this holiday home. Thankyou Lucinda for giving us a wonderful Christmas week........the Christmas Tree and lights another bonus!!
Sandcastle is a wonderful property, with lots of space for family and things to explore. We loved the modern decor. We can even play a game of snooker, and there are lots of books to read. The bed and pillow was very comfortable and clean and I could sleep without any problem (I usually have problem sleeping in strange bed). initially, there had been some issues with lighting in some areas but it had been fixed. Lucinda was very helpful and communication was easy. We decided to book in again in December for our families to come in to enjoy the place.
Our stay at Sandcastles was fantastic. The home has everything you could want for a weekend getaway. There are cute little instructions for everything, so you're not left wondering where things are or how they work! There's plenty of space, well equipped kitchen, comfy beds & quality linen & furnishings. The pool table & outdoor area were perfect for relaxing. Lucinda was great to communicate with & explained everything. We were lucky to get a late check-out too. A beautifully presented home away from home đ
Lucinda was extremely obliging, quick to respond and did all in her power to ensure a pleasant stay. Our teens who were initially reluctant to come, want us to book it again as they had so much healthy fun ( away from screens đ). But then watched a classic movie later on ,on one of the multiple big screens. Lots of laughs playing Fussball and pool and so good that it's walking distance to the shops and pubs! I have never stayed in such a well equipped place and we've been to many!! It seriously caters from babies to oldies and all in between. Cannot recommend highly enough and already checking the diary to book a stay early next year. Thank you!
Stayed here with a few friends for a weekend getaway. The place was lovely and bright, and even though it was large and spacious it had a real homely feel to it. Kitchen was functional and had all the necessary utensils etc. Very generous dining table and a great lounge area with a lot of seating. The upstairs family area was a surprise with a pool table and lots of games and jigsaws to relax with.
The place is walking distance to the main strip in Port Elliot and is a nice stroll to the beach. Would definitely stay again!
We had a wonderful time staying here. Lucinda is a wonderful host and the house had everything we could have asked for.
The look of excitement on our boys face when we entered the house was enough to tell me it was going to be a very enjoyable stay.
There is so much within the house to entertain everyone and so much space.
A great house for giving everyone a bit of space, but also multiple wonderful areas for everyone to come together for eating, games, entertainment, etc.
Our three days here was a highlight of our South Australia road trip.
Sandcastles was a fantastic house only a 5-10 minute walk from the main street of Pt Elliot. Very clean and well appointed with high quality linen and towels. The kitchen had everything and more we needed.
Great kitchen and dining area and 2 large living areas. Perfect for 2 families or 4 women on a girls weekend, like us! Lucinda was lovely to deal with and very responsive to messages.
Highly recommend.
It is right on the main road between Victor to Goolwa though so there is some traffic noise but it didn't bother us.
Beautifully appointed property in a great location. Perfect for walks along the beaches (saw dolphins and whales!), delicious local food and coffee, and strolling the picturesque town and shops. Comfy beds, cozy heating, lots of games and books, and a well stocked kitchen. Lovely views across to the hills. Lucinda was super friendly and helpful!! Weâve already decided this is the perfect house for our annual girls trip. Canât wait to visit in summer too.
This house is fabulous- particularly for a family with teens with free Wifi, two living areas, 4 TVs, pool table, foosball & table tennis- even scooters, bodyboards and wetsuits for the warmer months. It would work just as well for up to 3 couples or a family with young children. So well equipped- more glassware in the kitchen than at our own home!
Although on the main road in Port Elliot we were not bothered by traffic noise and ducted heating/cooling makes for a comfortable house all year round.
The communication from our host Lucinda was exceptional. The check in and out process was seamless and she was quickly responsive to any questions- not that we needed to ask any during the stay as the hosts had really thought of everything. Added bonus was it was a pet friendly destination complete with a doggy door to the back patio!
