This is our second time staying in the RVA resorts, the experience has been great both times. The rooms have been comfortable and clean with good amenities. Being close to the beach while also having a heated pool and hot tub is a must for us!

Love, love the Beach Castle Inn. We have been coming there for the last 7 years. We enjoy the location, private and quiet beach, great amenities, units are well equipped and clean. Ted, the mgr is great. Realize everything is more expensive these days, however with the new price increase we will be looking for a different place to stay next year.

We were very happy with this condo. It was very well stocked in the kitchen, many towels for bathroom and the beach,along with items to help keep everything clean. The condo was very clean and had books, games and puzzles to pass the time when it was raining and cold out. The patio area was nice and private but still had the beautiful view so you didn't miss a thing. We always enjoy our stay at beach castle. The staff is always helpful and friendly. <br/>

We have been visiting Beach Castle for 25 years, and my wife's family has been coming here for 46 years. The rooms were as comfortable as ever, and the unit was nicely updated and very comfortable. The exterior looked well maintained - however there were some messy and loud neighbors - several large families using multiple units. They tended to not be as aware that there were other guests - but this was the only time that this has occurred in all of the years that we have been visiting. <br/> <br/> The location is perfectly positioned to enjoy the Beach and Bay. On the Bay side - the dock was not as well maintained as other years though.<br/><br/> Boat renatals from Cannon's Marina are a great way to enjoy the water. You can even pull up to the Beach castle Dock to load your gear and family!<br/><br/> Oma's Pizza delivers delicious Pizza - even the Fried Calmari arrives hot and tasty!<br/><br/> St. Armands Circle was as busy as ever!<br/><br/>We have always looked forward to our visits, and we cannot wait to go back!<br/><br/>

We enjoyed our stay at this unit very much. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. It was large and had a great proximity to the beach. From the master bedroom you could see the ocean. We were eaten up by sand fleas on the beach so be sure to take bug spray.
