Fabulous location, great facilities, wonderful restaurant - we’ll be back. The only downside was that the access to the beach was closed for renovations so we had to walk the long way around to get to the beach

All in all a very nice property with good facilities and beach access. Small things let it down like dripping taps, flat batteries in AC remote, blinds that don't open properly, floor not cleaned very well and no place to wash dishes other than bathroom sink Also hot water not quite hot enough.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Sandcastles 1770 is in a great location - right on the beach. Unfortunately, my room wasn't clean - satay sauce spilt on the floor in front of the fridge and dead bugs on the floor and window sills. The bathroom smelt musty. I mentioned these things to the receptionist when I checked out, but her only response was to say I should have complained earlier.
