The property was clean very noisy. The front desk staff were not overly friendly. The " continental breakfast" was a joke . They handed out the food always the sane hard boiled egg 2 slices of orange cheese and a roll. Everything was very badic. Same menu in restaurant all week.

We just returned yesterday from a perfect 5 day stay. We were continuously greeted by wonderful front desk staff who always made us feel welcome, and feel at home. From morning one, we started to meet other guests, some who come back every year, and it immediately starts to feel like a little community. Wonderful staff led by Ted, and Chris, who you would see circulating throughout the property daily, and who both stopped by to say a warm hello to us multiple times, and check in to ensure we were comfortable, and ask if we needed anything. This is a special touch of true hospitality that you will not get at just any hotel. Beautiful grounds where we always felt safe. The morning offerings of fruit, and juice were perfect for us. We always had a piece a fruit to put in our beach bag to start off the day. So convenient to Frederiksted, we were able to walk out to perfect beaches for snorkeling, and down the street to great restaurants, and dive shops where we rented gear, and walked out to, and dove some of our best dives ever, including the Frederiksted pier. Other great excursions nearby including horseback riding on the beach, and into the rain forest. All the activities we came to do were all right nearby. We couldn't have asked for a better first stay on St Croix. We have already talked about coming back again for more diving, and we can't think of anywhere else we would like to stay than Sand Castle on the Beach. Book this hotel!!!

The location was great. The room was nice and clean. Our favorite part was the restaurant. We ate there every night. Food was excellent and the staff was great. One of staff members who deals with the snorkel and beach equipment was a little snooty, maybe she was having a bad day. Overall it was a great experience and a nice boutique type hotel. One of the owners was very personable. Armas at the front desk was really nice and helpful. We would definitely recommend this place.

Beautiful property, absolutely incredible staff. I seriously can't say enough about how excellent every single staff member is. Really makes you feel welcome and like you belong here. The kitchen in our room had absolutely every pot, pan, dish and cutlery needed. Our room was missing an item when we checked in so we let the front desk know and it was replaced in minutes. Very comfortable rooms and beds. The pool deck and beach are fantastic. I would recommend the sandcastle in an instant to anyone considering staying here.
