We had a great week at Sandcastle! The house had everything you could need for a week at the beach - sand toys, beach equipment, towels, games, puzzles, etc. The home was very clean too. And easy to get to the beach! We would definitely book again!

Beautiful well-stocked home

The house was beautiful and came with all the necessities (pots, pans, spices) and some of what are typically nice-to-haves (additional paper products, trash bags, etc.). The house had many games, which provided lots of entertainment for the kids. We enjoyed our stay!

Absolutely perfect!

This home was perfect! Super clean, amazing location, classically and beautifully decorated. We packed light for the ferry ride, but the home had everything we needed after a trip to the Maritime Market to get some groceries. This home is well cared for and I can tell well loved. Thank you for the great stay!

Another awesome BHI family beach trip

We loved our stay at Sandcastle by the Sea! The location is perfect, with boardwalk access to the beach. The golf cart is in great condition and we appreciated the bikes, boards and beach chairs!! The cottage was perfect for our family. Our college-age kids loved having the upstairs to themselves and the primary suite downstairs was perfect for my husband and I. The kitchen is compact, but well stocked. This was our 8th time on BHI and one of our favorite rentals. Thanks!

Fabulous beach house!

My family of four spent a week at Sandcastle by the Sea. The house was lovely and in a great location. It is centrally located on the island and just a short golf cart ride to the market, shops and several restaurants. We could easily walk to the beach. The kitchen is well stocked. There are lovely views from every room in the house. The decor is current and beautiful. Kim, the host, was super responsive and made the entire rental process easy. We will be back!!

Great BHI home

What a great rental property! Everything was so clean, the kitchen was well appointed, the beds were comfortable, and the access to the beach was amazing! We really enjoyed walking on the beach every single night. The porch was relaxing and the golf cart was the fastest on the island. The garage was filled with bikes, shibumi shades, chairs and beach toys. Thank you Kim for such a great stay! Would rent here again.

Wonderful Home. Wonderful Host!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was clean, spacious and decorated tastefully. The beach a short walk out the front door. The host, Kim, was quick to respond and very helpful in every way. When we asked, a day before our arrival, if there was a blender at the house, she replied that the previous occupants had broken it, but that she would have a new one sent asap. It arrived on our first morning in the house. Very highly recommended!

Beautiful, relaxing vacation

My husband and I, our two small kids and my dad all enjoyed our week staying at Sandcastle by the Sea. The house was spotless and provided the perfect place to relax and enjoy each others company. Our kids loves all of the toys and art supplies, not to mention zipping around on the golf cart. The location to the beach could not have been more ideal, just a few steps away on a fairly new walkway. We also appreciated the nicely appointed appliances, i.e. the coffee maker and washer/dryer…….both a must have with small kids 😀. We will definitely be coming back to Bald Head Island and hopefully Sandcastle by the Sea.

Wonderful anniversary trip

We have been to BHI many times with a big group of family, but my wife and I decided to just get away for 5 days to celebrate our anniversary. There aren’t a lot of rental properties at BHI for just 2 people, but this house was perfect for the 2 of us (and we didn’t even use the 2 upstairs bedrooms). Everything was very clean and well maintained. Fast golf cart. We got lots of use out of the bikes, beach chairs, and Shibumi. Kim was very responsive when we couldn’t figure out how to operate the dishwasher. We would happily stay here again!
