Great Jax Beach HQ

We had a nice time meeting family here, plenty of space, great backyard and pool. The games and activities were fun, especially the mini golf. Our only issue was A/C not keeping the upstairs cool in the afternoon/evening, however, the magmnt was very responsive and made some repairs that significantly improved temperature for our last couple days.

Thank you for the great stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this home. It was roomy, comfortable and VERY accommodating! The fact that the kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and the backyard were stocked full of everything we needed was absolutely amazing! The only complaint we had was that the floors needed an extra mop down. Other than that, we were completely impressed with this home! Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Who Dey

The sandcastle was the perfect place for our family to gather for a wonderful long weekend in Jax visiting St Augustine, Jax Beach and the Beautiful stadium for a Who Dey Monday night win! The hosts are very accommodating and everything in the home was perfect. It was a cloudy weekend so the pool, putting green, pool table and other amenities were perfect. I’d definitely rent from the Sandcastle again.

Awesome place

I will definitely stay there again. Beautiful location, safe for the whole family. Loved the bedrooms and bathroom. Fully stock kitchen. Amazing deck and pool. Yard games and house were a hit for the kids. The only thing I will recommend is to add a TV in the front bedroom and a shower to the half bathroom for the ones using the bedroom in the first floor, as they were the elderley the front bat

The property was absolutely beautiful and very roomy. We loved everything about it. Very accommodating. One snag, parking is limited to 4 cars but they have room for 7 cars. You have to shuttle people from a parking place blocks away. Not mentioned in listing or reviews.

We had an amazing time at this home! It was so clean! Very grateful for that. Well stocked in kitchen, bathrooms etc! We have a range from 3-14.5 years old, and all our kids enjoyed the home and there was plenty of room! The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The garage was a fun activity center for all of us! The turf and the pool were amazing and used for hours during the day! The house is also very private in a quiet neighborhood which was another huge plus. Thank you for sharing your home! We’ll be back!

Graduation Family Weekend

The property was perfect for us and everything about it was exactly as pictured. The neighborhood was beautiful with older homes and tall oaks covered in moss that canopy the roads. We walked in the evenings and jogged to beach in the mornings. We played pool and shuffleboard and swam in the pool and grilled. It was everything we wanted for our family gathering. The bedrooms were lovely and beds were comfortable- extra blankets for the couches would have been nice. They had all the extras that you wouldn’t have to bring, coolers and chairs and pool toys too. We really enjoyed our stay!
