Great Vacation with Minor Issues
The property was just as described. It was very clean and very well stocked with many extras. It even included beach chairs and other various beach related items. The only reason I couldn’t give a perfect score was the bed in the master bedroom collapsed twice during our stay. After communicating with the owner found they were aware of the issue and planned to fix in the future.

Christmas 2023 - one week
Highlights: relatively quiet and relaxing, not crowded area of beach, stunning beach views and sunsets, fully stocked for enjoyment, family games, list of recommended restaurants from owners, walk to many sites nearby. Nice updated decorating and very comfortable to hang out at dining table and balcony. Parking was great, very near entrance and reserved spot. Would be nice to upgrade/improve: smaller beds were very squeaky and uncomfortable (others mentioned this too). Kids might be ok with this, but we had our adult children with us. No DVD player in family room, but awesome collection of DVDs. Would have been nice to pop in a couple movies.

Nice Place in The Narrows
I usually prefer a smaller property, but my husband now needs an elevator. It was not too crowded on the beach. The property owner had the place nicely stocked with essentials. Full size appliances. Plenty of beach towels, chairs and toys. Designated parking space, with luggage and grocery carts available. Pool and hot tub with age restrictions. Everyone was friendly.

Great Family Vacation Place
This is our 2nd year staying at this condo and we are already planning a 3rd. We love this place and it fits our extended family great. It is fully stocked from dishware to nice beach chairs to beach toys for the kids. It has something for everyone in extend family from our 1 year old to the older adults. We did contact the owner once due to an internet issue (which ended up being the entire island not just the condo) and she contacted us back quickly. We all enjoyed the views from the ocean front balcony (the sunsets are amazing) and the kids loved the pool after playing on the beach all day. We will be back.

A Beachy Christmas
We had a great time spending Christmas at Indian Shores beach. Even though it turned colder than expected, we still enjoyed the beautiful condo and the beach. Sand Castle 503 was immaculate and so well equipped. We had everything we needed for preparing Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas brunch. Amanda was great to work with and very responsive.

Lovely beach front property
Property was very clean and had all of the necessities needed for a week's stay. The pool was wonderful for the grandkids and the beach front was perfect for long walks and sunsets. It was nice having a restaurant right across the street and other places within walking distance. Would love to stay there again.
