The rooms were clean and well equipped. The staff was very nice and helpful. We were able to rent beach chairs, which was an awesome bonus. The property is retro and as advertised. Not fancy and could use some upgrades, but perfect for a budget friendly beach getaway. Great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Sand Castle. The pool was salt water and very clean. The walk to the beach was short. The location was excellent and in reach of many restaurants and shopping locations. The beds were okay but could use an upgrade. For the price compared to others we really enjoyed our stay.

Parking is very tight fitting. Ice maker for back rooms doesn’t work have go to front of building to get ice. Toilet made loud running sound when other rooms used theirs. But was close to Shops and Beach. Would stay again. Just needs a little attention to some things.

We always stay here when we travel to Tybee. We have tried the other hotel behind Tybee (Hotel Tybee) and we prefer Sandcastle Inn much more. It’s an older hotel as they all are there but it is clean and the staff is top notch. They don’t have an elevator so if you require one definitely ask for handicap accessible room. It’s about a 3 min walk to the beach and it’s very conveniently located walking distance to Tybrisa street. They have an outdoor pool that is well kept as well.

Pro's: okay price compaired to nearby competitors, location was nice and close to the beach without needing to cross a mainroad, staff were friendly and parking lot felt safe, had a microwave and fridge, room smelled okay, was across the street from a cute dog friendly restaurant <3 Potential areas of improvement: AC unit kept shutting off and the room got hot overnight, bathrooms are incredibly small- may want to be cautious if traveling with burly gentlemen

Clean beautiful room big bed fluffy bedding. Quite nice indeed. Friendly staff who treated us so kindly and accommodated our need for a late check in. We were able to have ease of access to all the things near by. Park you car for the weekend in the hotels lot and walk it's no more three blocks either direction to find things to do and food to eat. The local famous breakfast club is right beside this hotel. It's amazing. We loved everything about our stay and will be back soon.

First and foremost, the front office staff is absolutely amazing! Pleasant and happy with a smile every time I saw them. Thanks, ladies! As for the room, it was super clean and fresh, including the floors, the fridge and microwave. Hot water with good pressure in the shower. Bed was comfy. and best of all, a super short walk to the beach! This is my new favorite place. Thank you Sandcastle! See you guys next week.
