Recently, the Soggy Dollar Bar was reviewed as one of the 7 best party places in the Caribbean, especially on Sunday when noisy motor boats come over from St Thomas. For those of us who have loved the place for a decade or more, it has a become a nightmare. Mornings are still idyllic and evenings occasionally provide the quiet... More

Great setting on one of the most beautiful beaches in the caribbean. Rooms are clean, the staff is very friendly. They have water toys just for the guests. Food at dinner time was out of this world. Can't wait to come back. Capt. Don More

Sometimes when people stay at the same place year after year they find it not as wonderful as they first thought it to be. NOT the case at Sandcastle. We have been back in Maine for 3 weeks following our 5th yearly stay. We are tan, rested, relaxed and happy. Another great vacation. We stayed in Garden Cottage # 3... More

We rented the 2 air conditioned cabins for a week over Halloween so that we could go to Foxy's Halloween party. The staff was excellent and couldn't have been nicer. The rooms are immaculate and have everything that you need. You sign up for dinner in the morning and then go to the outdoor dining room at 7 to be... More

So here's how you can tell if a place is truly good. Whip up a hurricane. Call her Irene. Knock out the power all over the BVI. And leave it off for 4 days. Now, sit back and see what happens. If you try this at the Soggy Dollar Bar/Sandcastle Hotel you'll discover how a first class establishment is run.... More

When we arrived, Tina set us up in our rooms and we were off to the beach and bar. When it was crowded at the bar Mic would still get us what we needed and put it on our tab. We just put every thing on our tab and paid the bill at the end of our stay(how easy is... More

Wow, I cannot believe how rude the owners/managers of this hotel are. It is very expensive and hard to get to, yet when you arrive at this "luxury" resort you are treated like an intruder. I have never before felt like such a nuisance to someone I was paying. If you speak above a whisper after 7pm, they yell at... More

This hotel is in a great spot, the beach is quaintly beautiful, etc. However, my experience was completely ruined by the hosts. The scene during the day is boisterous and rowdy (often a bit much), but everything shuts down around 6. After that, you had better be willing to be silent or the owners literally yell at you. I've travelled... More

Our stay at Sandcastle was incredibly disappointing, for several reasons. Before I explain the details of our uncomfortable experience last year, I have to be fair--my family arrived with two more guests than we'd expected. Upon arrival, we assured our hosts that we would be happy to pay for our extra guests and apologized for the change of plans. In... More

This hands down was the best part of our trip. Visited jost for two days and stayed at the sandcastle. By far exceeded every expectation my family had. The rooms were simple, BUT CLEAN, the garden room was the most relaxing nights I have had. The open air feeling of the room was great. Stayed in july and we were... More
