We really enjoyed our stay. For a holiday weekend the price was reasonable for ocean front and ourselves and our teenager felt very comfortable and agreed we would definitely stay here again.- Kimberly , Posted: 05/26/2025
We enjoyed our stay! The condo is as pictured and we will return on a future trip.- Gwen F , Posted: 08/22/2024
Great stay!- Vicki , Posted: 08/09/2024
Beautiful ocean views on the back deck with access from the master bedroom and from the living area. There is beach access from the back deck as well, which was super convenient. The pool is small and behind the unit (also no hot tub), and we didn’t use it at all.
Our kids loved the bunk beds with the tv in their room, though the bunk bed mattresses were more comfortable than the master mattress. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies, but we were glad we brought dishwashing supplies and there was no extra toilet paper. Overall, it was just about perfect for what we wanted; I’d recommend this stay!- Meghan , Posted: 06/14/2024
Everything was great! We had an awesome vacation!- Kenneth H , Posted: 06/08/2024
Perfect spot for our weekend trip!- Daniel , Posted: 05/27/2024
Incredible view and reasonably priced- Matthew R , Posted: 05/19/2024
Beyond our expectations. We checked on the same day we booked. It was very last minute. Very comfortable and cozy. Great views . The most important thing, it was very quiet.- Jim , Posted: 04/09/2024
Beautiful place, great location, nice decor- Carolyn M , Posted: 10/19/2023
Perfect spot for ocean views and the entire beach experience.- Virginia P , Posted: 10/17/2023
Wish we had known there wasn’t an elevator but that was probably my fault for not looking as close as I Should. The ceiling in kitchen and small bathroom needs attention.- Sheila , Posted: 10/06/2023
Very nice unit and proximity to the beach can't be beat! Check in and out process was very easy and well communicated ahead of time.- Nancy F , Posted: 05/23/2023
We loved beautiful ocean view and being right on the beach location. Plenty of good restaurants close by and access to several grocery stores as well as activities. Definitely planning another stay hopefully soon.- Cecelia , Posted: 04/28/2023
A lovely condo with a beautiful deck looking at the ocean and lots of windows that had great ocean views. Easy access to beach. You can hear the ocean with the windows open. A wonderful and relaxing place to stay.- Mary , Posted: 04/23/2023
Great location and view of the beach! The condo had everything we needed for our stay. They provided us a list of restaurants and everywhere went that they recommended was delicious! Would definitely stay here again!- Katie , Posted: 12/28/2022
We had a great time! Perfect location right on the beach! Loved sitting out on the deck looking out at the ocean!- Jordan , Posted: 10/12/2022
This was the perfect spot to stay. You are close to the beach and far away from the hustle and bustle of downtown.- Lee A , Posted: 10/08/2022
We loved this condo! The most beautiful view that you can ask for from almost every room!! The deck is awesome and large. It was nice to sit there and watch the sunrises and sunsets, and the moon over the ocean at night. We also loved the Sand Castle condo building complex and it's proximity to the beach and easy parking.- William , Posted: 08/19/2022
We really loved this condo. The proximity to the beach, hearing the waves; the deck overlooking the water; it really feels like you're soaking up the beach. That being said, it's worth listing the pros and cons of the place.
Pros: So close to the beach, private walkway to the beach, pool, foot and body sand washing station, totally fine beds, showers, bathrooms, kitchen, and Kees was super quick and responsive to questions and issues.
Cons: I wish they didn't nickel and dime with the "starter pack" of cleaning supplies(!), our neighbors above were a bit loud as the sound insulation between condos isn't great, the pool seemed like it could be cleaned a little more often.
Overall, a great place for a beach vacation and we would stay here again.- Peter , Posted: 08/06/2022
Lovely condo. Awesome location.- Tobi Jane , Posted: 07/10/2022
We loved this condo and would definitely stay here again! It was super clean and spacious. The location and view were amazing!- Caroline , Posted: 06/18/2022
Great location right on the beach, with parking, close to plenty of dining spots, clean and has everything you need.- Kimberly , Posted: 06/04/2022
It was wonderful sitting on the porch watching the dolphins and pelicans and hearing the surf. The beach was clean. Our fellow guests in the building were nice and quiet. The unit was cleaner than most hotels I’ve stayed in, and nicely appointed and accommodating.- Donna , Posted: 05/23/2022
Lovely accommodations. Two roomy bedrooms and lots of space for several people. The deck has a gorgeous view and you can hear the waves crashing 24/7!- Stacey , Posted: 05/03/2022
Perfect location and great ocean views all around!- Stephen , Posted: 04/07/2022
Very nice 3rd level condo with direct beach access and centrally located to shops & restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!- Deanne , Posted: 03/18/2022
Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Great location!- Aimee , Posted: 12/29/2021
Great location to explore up and down the OBX. Close proximity to restaurants and tourist attractions. Super easy access to the beach.- Brittany , Posted: 12/06/2021
The morning sun on the deck is lovely.- Allison , Posted: 11/16/2021
This place is a gem. Location on the beach is perfect. The unit is lovely and as nice as described or maybe even better. The balcony makes for beautiful ocean and sunrise views. It is very clean and well appointed. There are several nice restaurants nearby. We will want to come back! If you want a beautiful unit on the beach, you cannot go wrong with this one.- Cindy , Posted: 11/13/2021
The deck overlooking the ocean, plus the great views from inside really made this house a dream, especially since we were there off-season and so it was a little too chilly to be on the beach all day. The house was well-appointed for cooking (as beach houses go) and comfortable. The beach is nice and wide right out front (compared with some areas just a bit further south where it's more narrow). Because it is right next to a public beach access and a motel, it's probably pretty crowded in the summertime, but we had it all to ourselves :) I would definitely come back to this house.- Chelsea , Posted: 10/29/2021
We loved the unit and the location. The perfect spot!- Dereck , Posted: 10/23/2021
Wonderful stay! The apartment was clean and well furnished, with an electric cooktop and large fridge. The apartment also has a great view of the ocean and the beach is just steps away. Location in Kill Devil Hills is also very convenient, with restaurants and a grocery store all within just a mile. Would highly recommend and stay again.- Randy , Posted: 10/11/2021
Perfect for the 3 of us. Great location, easy beach access. Stunning ocean view!- Jennee , Posted: 10/08/2021
This was our first trip to OBX and we were thrilled to be on the beach. Waking up and walking on the beach at sunrise and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean were heavenly. We loved this place so much we booked it for the remainder of our vacation.- Jennee , Posted: 10/05/2021

Spectacular view! Clean,cozy and efficient for a family beach vacation!- Connie J , Posted: 08/03/2021
The Wave Watcher at Sandcastle Village was perfect for my family. The proximity to the beach and the pool was great for us. We were at a great location to enjoy the monuments, and other activities that the Outer Banks had to offer. My daughters loved the bunk beds, and we loved that the master bedroom had such a beautiful view of the beach. This was the first time we even cooked in a condo on vacation, and it was very easy with all the items in the kitchen. We would highly recommend.- Quinn M , Posted: 07/19/2021
Great location, just steps away from the beach. Was spacious and clean. The deck view of the ocean is awesome and still allows you to see ocean during inclement weather. Would stay here again.- Morgan , Posted: 06/25/2021
Second time staying at this home. Works out great for our family of four. Great location, access to the beach, views and amenities. We'll be back again!- Joshua H , Posted: 06/19/2021
Great place in a great little town. Perfect location and had everything you could need. Will definitely be back again.- Kelly , Posted: 04/30/2021
Amazing place to stay with an awesome view and easy access to the beach!- Melissa , Posted: 04/26/2021
Spacious condo overlooking the beach. Perfect for our family of 4!- Cynthia , Posted: 04/11/2021
We had a great time at Wave Watcher at Sand Castle Village. The communication was super easy and quick and the place looks exactly like it does on the pictures. It was clean, comfortable and very stylish.
It is a perfect location to enjoy the ocean. I especially loved the porch and enjoying a relaxing cup of coffee while watching the amazing sunrise.
I would absolutely recommend to stay there. Kee’s was very helpful since the beginning, available at all times whenever I had any questions.- Melissa , Posted: 04/04/2021
You cannot beat the view and all the amenities offered in this condo! We watched the sunrise every morning from our balcony and it was glorious! Amazing location close to everything! Easiest check in and check out ever!- Jennifer , Posted: 03/29/2021
Great view!- Nicole , Posted: 03/19/2021
We really enjoyed our stay here. Location is amazing. I loved waking up and watching sunrise from bedroom. The condo has all the amenities you need for a home away from home. We were doing a work/vacation and the wifi was great for that. I would stay here again.- Emily , Posted: 03/06/2021
We had a blast staying here. The views make the place really magical. This was a great location, close to the beach, especially with two young kids. Kees were quick to respond when needed.- Margee , Posted: 01/22/2021
Really nice! Great location. Beautiful view of the ocean. Decoration simple, elegant, and beach themed. Fully equipped with nice touches. Good communication. Could not have been better!- Barry , Posted: 01/06/2021
It was an awesome place to stay. I would love to stay in the summer!- Blain , Posted: 11/29/2020
Fantastic accommodation, outstanding view, spotlessly clean. Will definitely plan to come back.- Brenda , Posted: 10/22/2020
The place is very pretty.- Terrie , Posted: 09/13/2020
LOVED: the gorgeous ocean view, the beach decor and coordinated furnishings and pub tables on the deck AND in the condo (perfect for playing card/board games/puzzles and enjoying view inside and out), comfy adirondack chairs, great comfy seating in living room and comfy beds, enjoyed having Netflix, appreciated the many hooks and drawers in bathrooms and bedrooms to hang and store clothes, well equipped kitchen with new appliances, very easy short walk to beach
The screen door to the deck was off the frame upon arrival, so we were unable to have the deck door open and enjoy the ocean sounds while inside condo. Kees told us two times that maintenance would check it out, but they never came:(- Veena , Posted: 08/14/2020
Very nice place...we will go back- James , Posted: 06/21/2020
Gorgeous little condo, loved the decorations, the amenities. Everything was up to date and well stocked. Owners were responsive to questions. And OMG the view was everything I wanted it to be. I didn't want to leave, haha.- Sheree , Posted: 06/17/2020
Loved it!- Eve , Posted: 07/14/2019
