“Redecorated Gulf Front Condo with Beach, Pool and Hot Tub. Includes Free Wi-Fi”

Excellent Location, Beautiful View of Beach & Pool Area
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Location was absolutely wonderful! Condo was very clean & stocked with everything you would need! We had a great time ! I would certainly love to return to this beautiful location!


Feb 2019

This is a very nice condo, clean and beautifully decorated with everything you would need. The building, pool area and grounds are well maintained. Located directly on the beach, we watched spectacular sunsets every evening.

We will definitely return!


Feb 2019

The enjoyable highlights of our stay were the long walks in both directions on the lovely beach, which stretches from the harbour wall at John's Pass (Madeira Beach) all the way north to Clearwater, the convenient BBQ area, where we cooked a few meals, the pub across the street for delicious meals on their patio and the access to nearby shopping areas for the evening hours.

The Condo itself was very clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable 7-week stay and the parking space under cover was a welcome feature. The pool and jacuzzi were a daily treat and complimented our beach walking, just yards away!

We all had a wonderful time during our stay and fully recommend this location to anyone seeking a relaxing holiday here at Indian Shores. We will certainly consider a return visit anytime we are coming back to the sunbelt in this part of Florida.

Wonderful vacation

Unit 307 of Sandcastle 1 was a beautifully decorated, clean, spacious condo. Everything we needed for a great vacation! Loved being able to rent a cabana right outside the complex. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Johns Pass also nearby. The electric shutters on the balcony were especially nice during those hot afternoons. Will definitely return to this condo!

Perfect getaway!

We had another great week in Dan’s condo!! Always love the view and easy access to the pool and ocean with many options close by for day trips. We relaxed, lots of walks on the beach, and also ventured out to places such as Honeymoon Island, Caladesi, Dunedin, Madeira beach, and paddle boarding in St Pete. Great food and shopping options close too. The condo is always clean and well supplied. Dan was easy to reach with a question and took care of our needs! Thanks again!

Perfect condo for comfort and a perfect ocean view!

We have been coming to Indian Shores for many years. This is by far one of the best well kept and supplied condos with an ideal ocean view. The owners are consistently friendly, personable and available for any need. The furnishings and decor are bright and pleasing to the eye and comfort. All are certain to enjoy the beautiful beaches and ideal location where every imaginable vacation activity is within easy walk, bike or drive. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Condo, exceptionally nice & clean, with a great ocean view !

We had a memorable time during our stay at this unit at Sand Castle I. This is a lovely condo with all the comforts of home with a wonderful decorum. We compared it with other units listed in the area and this one has the nicest ambiance that satisfied our personality. This felt like home, had plenty of room, loved the layout, and felt comfortable, Didn't want to leave when it came time to go! This unit is one of the nicest condos we have stayed in and it is nicely decorated and recently freshly painted. Loved spending everyday viewing the ocean and we enjoyed the well kept landscaping. The pool and hot tub area is well maintained, the deck is sprayed down every morning, and set up every day. We enjoyed that this area is close to Clearwater & St Petersburg. Something is always happening at the beach and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the activities and sunsets. OMG the sunsets there are breath taking and a photographers muse. Long walks along the beach in either direction provided interesting people to meet and and ample exercise. Someone did fireworks one night on the beach right outside the property and drew quite the crowd, You can’t be disappointed when you stay at this unit. Dan & Ruth have done a fantastic job with this place and it is just a sheer pleasure to be able stay there. Good place, good people, fantastic sunsets, good times!

Great condo!

It was our first stay at Sand Castle I and our first visit to Indian Rock Beach/Clearwater. The condo was very clean and well-equipped. There were beach chairs, sand toys, and a cooler in the balcony closet. The restroom off the pool area was very convenient and clean. We ate at Caddy's (across the street) twice. It was delicious and we sat at a table on the waterway. We will definitely be returning next summer! Thanks Dan and Ruth for a great condo!

Wonderful Stay!

We enjoyed our stay at this condo! Very clean and well stocked. Big balcony with beautiful sunsets. Parking was a little tricky with a big SUV since it is underneath the condo building with tight spaces, but that would not stop us from staying here again. We loved the convenience of the third floor (we used the stairs mostly) and how close the beach was.

Exceptional condo and vacation stay!

Sandcastle 1 unit 307...The condo was very clean and well kelp and decorated. I will say it was the best equipped condo that I have ever been in. Every detail had been considered and provided for. There was even an emergency first aid kit in one of the drawers. Knives, forks and spoons galore. The owner, Mr. McKinnon, had even provided 20 or 30 good movies to watch if you wished. We have stayed at Sandcastle 1 several times so we can say with out a doubt that the pool and grounds are kept extremely well and the beach is close in and uncrowded most of the time. Highly recommended!!

PERFECT & CLEANEST condo ever!!!

CLEAN.....COZY.....FULLY equipped with everything you will ever need while away from home. Def the cleanest condo I have ever stayed in and I've been in my share. Very updated and decorated pleasantly. Many extras and the pictures on this site do not do condo justice. It was actually BETTER in person! Nice surprise. Condo elevators are fast, plenty of luggage carts and buggies to haul groceries. Great parking. Very quiet relaxed neighborhood. Uncrowded beaches, clean beautiful landscaping, pool, hot tub and surroundings. Very nice bathroom by pool complete with shower. Extra sand chairs and beach toys by gate to beach, also hose to rinse off with. This place lacked NOTHING!! We will be staying again!!! 5 star for sure~ Thank you for a great stay!!!! Use local taxi to shuttle us across the bridge to get groceries and other needs. Very reasonable and close to EVERTHING, yet not commercialized. Nice visit to John's Pass for dinner on the water and plenty of unique shops!

Great Beach Condo

Loved the condo! Super view of the beach & all the comforts of home, right down to the decorations. I compared it to 3 other units, in two buildings, that friends rented. Those felt like rentals & needed some personality. Ours felt like home, didn't want to leave! Easy access to the beach & shops. Wonderful time had by all of us. Will rent from Dan again! A great guy, there when I called! Definitely recommend his condo!!

Wonderful Condo in Glorious Location

Our stay in January could not have been more delightful. The location is simply magnificent - looking to the west from the third-floor balcony are some of the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen. It is so comfortable, spacious, and perfectly outfitted, did not want to leave. We walked the beach in bare feet for almost 2 miles in either direction. The pool, hot tub and grounds are maintained to perfection so laying in the sun with a good book could be enjoyed from many different perspectives. Good restaurants are within walking distance or short drives and the seafood is what you would expect - excellent. Don’t miss the ice cream shop right across the street. This place is just heavenly - very comfortable, romantic, and let’s not forget warm in the winter with abundant sunshine.

Outstanding Vacation Venue!

Everything about this location made for the perfect girl’s trip vacation. The property and grounds were immaculate. The view from the patio of the gulf and the pool was exceptional. The proximity to the trolley stop and local restaurants and bars was so convenient. Our condo, unit 307 was absolutely perfect-well equipped with everything we needed and extremely comfortable. This location will definitely be one we return to again.

If you want Beach front!

We enjoyed our stay very much! Very nice accommodations in a great location. Just minutes to many great restaurants and to St Petersburg/ Clearwater airport.

Unit 307 Exceeded our Expectations

Unit 307 is a beautiful and well equipped condo in a perfect family friendly location and close to many attractions. The beach and gulf are steps away. The ocean view from the condo is second to none with breathtaking sunsets. I do recommend SandCastle 1 getting new gas grills. Folks were walking next door to use SandCastle 2 grills.

We appreciate the kind words and the fact that Dave and Cassie enjoyed their vactation. The grills are due for replacement along with some upgrade to the area later this year.

Very Relaxing Getaway

My wife and I really enjoyed our week in this condo. The condo was very well-maintained, well-equipped, and suitably decorated. The location was quiet and very close to the beach. The immediate surrounding area is not commercial or loud, but there are ample restaurants nearby -- one across the street. When we were not out on the beach or in the pool, we spent a lot of time each day on the balcony admiring the view and the sound of the waves. Very relaxing!

Great vacation condo

Location is great; parking spot under the building great; shopping carts and luggage carts available down by the elevators very convenient; balcony with sunsets view super; we were just 3 of us and had a lot of spare room; we'll come again.
