Our stay at Castle in the Sand was great. The views were breathtaking. The house was not at spacious as the pics lead you to believe. It is unnecessarily cramped with very large furniture. The house has a pool, but found out once arriving we would only be able to use it for 2 days then it would be closed. Calls were made about issues with the house such as ice maker not working, faucet in kitchen broken, locks missing on doors. Someone came and took pics on our second day, but nothing was ever fixed.
All in all it was a great 2 weeks, but the house is not worth the price.

The house needs a good thorough cleaning. Bottom deck was dirty. Had to clean grill, dishwasher before we could use them. Home needs some TLC

Fabulous location. Kitchen not up to par for a house of this level. (Broken pits, not enough table knives, no blender). No master en suite bathroom which made it a bit awkward with other families in the house. Too much old style furniture around dining table made it really difficult to actually get around the table. Now if you can get past all this, the house is in a perfect location with amazing views and beach access. Which is after all why we came. But I think there are better managed homes.

Pros: great beach (quiet and recently replenished), nice neighborhood, plenty of air conditioning, well stocked kitchen, hot tub was good with all jets working, best Wi-Fi we’ve ever had on OBX, good towels, washer and dryer were great, pool table good with plenty of room around it.
Cons: pool was leaking so they told us to continuously feed water into it which made it too cold to use (no attempt to fix it), floors were dirty, kitchen was dirty, the only clean thing on the beds were the sheets so wash the comforter/bedspread and mattress cover when you get there (trust me I wish I had known this before the last day when we stripped the bed), grill was not usable, neighbors are very close, dining room was so small you could not get around the table and there were not enough chairs (including the bar) for our family of 12 anyways, game room pool table worked but none of the other games did (video game and slot machine), all but one of the bedrooms were very small. They left tubs of dirty linen and towels on our porch for days before someone picked them up
All in all this house was small and dirty but in a great location. I don’t think I will stay here again.

Pros - the management company was very professional, helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend and will return.
The home was very clean. Everything we needed was there and easy to find. Grocery store was in walking distance. Beach was very clean, we hardly saw other people on the beach the entire week. Firepit on the beach was awesome experience. Seashells galore if you are into shelling. Bedrooms were comfortable, we all slept well. Killer sunrise.
Cons - none of the gaming on the bottom floor works (slot machine, arcade machine, or pool table) when a leg is broken on a table and it's not level, you can't play. The pool is closed, hot tub was great but needed cut off instructions weren't included, so it ran non stop. The elevator is great, but it too needed instructions. It won't work unless all doors are completely closed. There are no street lights, so around 5 pm it was pitch black out walking my dog. Flashlight would be handy. Fishing seemed slow bc the cool Temps. Wifi speed was way slower then what we are accustomed too.
Other then that, we will be back. This home and location were great.

Nice house, had all we needed. Pros - Great pool & hot tub. Beach access is fantastic and good views of ocean. Cons - no view of soundside sunsets, needs new frying pans. Be careful of pool table - leg is broken and it can fall if moved, we learned the hard way.

Our family of nine enjoyed a fantastic week at Castle in the Sand. Beautiful and well-appointed property right on the beach. Prime, convenient location near a variety of shopping and dining outlets. Beautiful house in an ideal, beachfront location. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

One of our best vacations ever. Hope to return next year. We loved the location on the beach within walking distance to the pier and a great restaurant. The views were amazing. We spent a lot of time on the decks overlooking the water. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

Our stay was very comfortable. Egret Landing offers everything you could want. A nice size pool, hot tub and yard. A beautiful canal view where you can actually watch Egrets. All in a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of several eateries and the beach.
