This home is located in the perfect spot. A waterfront restaurant is right across the street in addition to boat & scooter or cart rentals.

This exclusive condo boasts direct breathtaking views of the beach & Gulf of Mexico to the West from the Master bedroom, living room, dining room & the kitchen. This 2nd floor condo is one of only a few that offer the premier location and interior features that surpass all expectations. Locals refer to this area of our beach as the Narrows since our island in this area is almost all beach with the intracoastal waterway just across the street.

The living area provides a large flat screen TV. The Master suite features a King size bed, flat screen TV & private bathroom fit for the most discriminating guests with a spacious updated shower and granite counter tops. This great condo offers a split bedroom plan with the larger guest room boasting 2 Full beds and a flat screen TV while the smaller bedroom has 2 Twin beds and currently a small flat screen TV.

The fine furnishings throughout this condo will please the most meticulous guests. For your convenience, the kitchen is fully equipped with top-of-the-line appliances in addition to the essentials such as a toaster, dishes, cooking utensils & lots more. The laundry closet in the condo offers a stackable washer & dryer for all those beach towels (6 of which we supply for your use) or swim suits you’ll be washing after your days of fun on the beach or by the pool.

Enjoy the magnificent sunset views relaxing on the private and direct Gulf front Balcony off the Living Room & Master Bedroom, overlooking the heated pool and hot tub area while listening to the Gulf of Mexico’s calming waves as they come ashore. This fantastic balcony boasts a spiral staircase for your short cut to the beach, pool, hot tub and grills with no need to use the elevator unless you want to.

After the day on the beach, it’s just a short walk or drive to some enjoyable restaurants. Our Pinellas County beaches also offer a Trolley Service that has a pickup right out front as well as stops along Gulf Boulevard furnishing you access to the many local treasures we have to offer all day and late into the evening for minimal costs.

Very nice condo

We enjoyed our stay at this condo. Everything was great. The only negative was no ceiling fan in the master and the one in the second bedroom didn’t work.

Fall Break 2023 at Sand Castle III Room 203

This property has a great location and very nicely equipped. Beds were comfortable and furnishings were more than what we needed. The best part is direct stair access to the pool and beach. We will stay here again.

Nice

The condo was nice room wise. Didn’t particularly like being on pool deck. Noisy all evening. Swimming until 1am. A lot of noise in surrounding units! The area was beautiful. Would go back, just to a different unit.

Upgrades needed...

We have stayed at Sand Castle 3 many times over the years, including this unit. It needs a deep clean...lots of dirt on walls and doors. The unit itself needs upgrading. We rented 3 units total this trip and they were all in need of cleaning and repairs. Overall, we were disappointed in the condition of the units. But the area and the beach were wonderful.
