Location of property was terrific...right on beach -- and while the property was once built to high specifications with nice appliances and new bathrooms etc, the issue of maintainance was sad indeed. Many of the items in the house did not work properly, outside furniture cushions etc were literally threadbare with the stuffing exposed on every single cushion. Patio furniture on the upper level was nearly non existent with the table not of a patio variety, but literally the kind of folding table you could buy at Staples for office use. Probably the most cringy thing looking back on our trip was the fact that the dishwasher while operational required a phone call to figure out how to make it actually work. A call to the property manager elicited a response including a text showing me how the panel should look for it to work....He also indicated he should probably have printed out instructions.....this means that the dishes that were washed by the previous guest (when we arrived, all of the dishwasher detergent remained in the dishwasher --- wet but unused and not dissolved) which means we were using utensils and dishes not thoroughly washed and not by people in our family, but by perfect strangers. Garage was filled with lots of items (some junk, some not working) almost to the detriment of being able to park. A careful editing of some of these items would make for a much nicer experience. Location unbeatable, but many factors in the stay could have been vastly improved.

The house was fantastic! It’s a great location and we enjoyed being able to just walk out our door to get to the beach. The house was well stocked with everything we needed, including beach toys. We particularly enjoyed the upstairs balcony, where we ate several of our meals while viewing the beautiful scenery.

Sand Castle is a great place to stay. Clean and well stocked. The host was very responsive to all our questions. 5 stars!

We had an amazing stay at this beach house with our family, including two teenagers. The location couldn’t be more perfect, right on the beach with incredible views from multiple windows. We loved relaxing on the patio and spending time upstairs, while the downstairs living area and bedrooms were ideal for the teens to have their own space.Check-in was a breeze, and communication with the property management company was seamless. They were super responsive to any questions we had.It was also a huge plus to have beach towels, chairs, and a couple of bikes available. We used them to ride to the store and down to the pier. A fantastic spot for a family getaway. Highly recommend!

This home was paradise on earth. We had a perfect spot right in front of the ocean and within walking or biking to distance to many amazing local spots. The views from the house are breathtaking. The home was gorgeous. We will be back!

We absolutely loved our stay. Fabulous location. Great views. Right on the sand but away from the chaos of the pier area. Not on the boardwalk but very close. Lovely home with great amenities. Bikes, toys, chairs, beach blankets all for guest use. Host is quick to respond and very helpful. We brought our niece and her BF. Master bedroom, kitchen and main living area is upstairs. Two beds and two baths downstairs. We all loved that we could hang out upstairs together and also have our private areas to go to. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Do bring your bathroom supplies and some extra TP as there is one roll supplied per bathroom.

This property was clean and had everything you would need to be at the beach. The location was great for my family as we have 3 kids under 3 and didn’t want to be right on the strand with a bunch of people walking by. The property backs right up to the sand and is only about a 15 minute walk from the pier and lots of places to eat. The balcony was huge (especially compared to the houses around it). Will definitely stay here again in the future!!

This home has it all! Beautiful, great location and has everything you would want for a great beach vacation. It isn’t a typical rental house… if feels like you are staying at your own vacation home! Jason was easy to work with and very quick to respond. Looking forward to coming back!

My husband and I stayed four nights at The Sandcastle with our son, two daughters, and two sons-in-law, all aged 20-30. We were in town for my nephew’s wedding, and extended the trip to include a mini family reunion on the beach!

10.0 / 10.0

We did a fair amount of research and talked to people who have vacationed in Newport and the Sand Castle met or exceeded our requirements. First of all the location is perfect - on the beach but far enough from the hub bub of the Newport Beach Pier as to not have constant traffic both foot and auto. Next, having a two car garage was great because parking on the street may be problematic in high season. Four bikes and other toys are a great addition. New and upgraded interior and appliances along with barbecue. Most important Jason was beyond responsive. Could not ask for a better host.

The house was great. It was in a great location. Jason was incredible with communication and help with anything we needed during our stay. The house has everything you need for your stay -- chairs, boogie boards, toys, bikes, etc. The A/C helped when it got hot. Would strongly recommend to anyone.

Everything was on point. Easy to book and easy to communicate with our manager/owners. Love these folks and their process. Very accommodating to a small change and was always making sure we were enjoying our stay. I look forward to booking again. In addition, excellent location. Can’t beat it.

This home is a perfect place to stay with a group of eight. Our kiddos enjoyed the beach daily and it was so nice to be right ON the beach! The home is clean, well done, and you feel right at home immediately. Jason is so easy and prompt to help with anything (not that we needed much), and we would surely stay here again! :) Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

This was our third or fourth stay at this property and it continues to be our favorite. Jason the manger is a great communicator and the location and setup of the house can't be beat! We can also fit our suburban in the garage which is an added bonus. You can't go wrong booking this home!

Great communication, hone was clean and the location is 100% perfect. Far enough from downtown to be quite, but close enough to be there in 5 minutes. The location on the beach would be hard to beat. Walk straight to the ocean through soft sand! Views are spectacular, we loved our time here!

We really enjoyed our stay at the end of October. The weather was amazing, and staying right on this amazing beach when it wasn't crowded was awesome. The Sand Castle had plenty of room and very open from the kitchen to the dining to the living to the deck. I'd go back there for sure.

Great house in a great location! The house is right on the sand but off the boardwalk (which we prefer). But you can still easily walk or ride bikes to restaurants and shops. The house was clean and exactly what we were looking for. We had a great week and would definitely stay here again! Also, Jason, the property manager, was super easy to communicate with.

Great beach house layout

Great beach house layout

This floorplan is great for families with teenagers. Teens had their own bathroom/bedrooms and living area downstairs to hang out in. Parents could enjoy the upstairs living area and upstairs patio. The beach patio is large enough for the whole family. Location is just a few streets north of the end of the boardwalk which gives lots of privacy but close proximity to hop on the boardwalk if you want to. Prop manager Jason was great to work with, very quick to respond to any questions. Check in/check out was very simple and clear. All towels, linens and beds were nice quality and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you'll need. Their cleaning crew does an excellent job, the house was spotless and ready to go when we arrived. Would definitely rent again.
