The pictures tell the correct story! The house is amazing. It is perfect for multiple families. We had 2 families with 7 children ages 4 - 18. The kids loved the theme bedrooms, the pool, toys in the garage, and the very short walk to the beach. We also loved walking to dinner and shopping. The house was amazing! Clean, comfortable beds, organized, and had everything we needed. We would recommend this house. We hope to return.

Nice short walk to the beach and a beautiful pool area to spend the afternoons. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Amazing Property

5 of 5
Submitted: April 15, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
We stayed for a week in Castle By The Sea in early April 2013 and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

We were a party of nine - 7 adults, a 6 year old and a 2 year old. The house was perfect. We've stayed in a lot of rental properties and have never seen one as well equipped as this. The kitchen especially has everything you'll ever need, including kids plates, cups, etc. It even has two dishwashers and a separate ice maker (as well as the one built in to the fridge) to make life easier. It's also very child friendly with stair gates fitted throughout and lots of toys and games to keep children entertained.

The pool was well designed for family use and proved to be a great hit with the kids as well as being big enough for the adults to enjoy. It's also well positioned catching the sun for most of the day. There were plenty of towels available.

Everything in the description is accurate and fair. It is very well positioned, less than a minutes stroll from the beach and a short walk to restaurants, bike hire and Coligny Place. Although close to all the amenities, the setting is very peaceful and apart from the occassional car or bike going past we felt like we were the only ones there.

The electronics in the house were also impressive and, with clear instructions provided, very easy to use whether you wanted to watch a DVD in the lounge or play your iTunes through the speakers by the pool.

The house was very well presented, clean throughout and had plenty of storage in every room.

In summary, we thought the house was fabulous. We'll probably go back to Hilton Head at some point as there's still lots there that we didn't get chance to do. If we do go back we'll certainly look to stay at Castle By The Sea.

I can't say enough about how wonderful Castle by the Sea is...the pictures do not do it justice. It is a beautiful home for sure, but the amenities make vacationing there effortless. If you are traveling with children, they have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and easy...from sippy cups to pool toys and absolutely everything in between! Our kids LOVED the themed bedrooms and felt so special sleeping in them. The master bedrooms are nicely furnished and our bathroom was luxurious! The walk to the beach took less than a minute, so it made going back and forth with kids a piece of cake. This private section of beach was awesome and not crowded at all. We enjoyed the short walk to Coligny and the walking trails close by as well. We feel so lucky to have found this gem of a house in Hilton Head and we'll definitely be back!!

Castle, Indeed!

Our family of 15 enjoyed everything about "the Castle." Location, very kid-friendly, wonderful pool, elevator, every utensil that could ever be needed, wonderful bed-rooms .. for kids and for adults, plenty of parking, TVs everywhere, very nice bathrooms, just a great property! The description provided on the web-site is very accurate and is not exaggerated at all. Not as close to Harbour Town as some might like --- but still close to shops, a wonderful beach, etc. About a 15 min. drive to Sea Pines, its restaurants, etc. This is a first class, well organized, thoughtfully planned, very nicely equipped and maintained ,,, Castle! We recommend it --- without any reservations.

We love staying at this house when we come to Hilton Head. It is perfect for family vacations with young children. The kids love the character themed rooms and the large outdoor pool. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

Our Vacation at the "Castle"

We had such a wonderful vacation!! The house was amazing, very comfortable for our group of 15 and of course, perfect for our grandchildren. While they loved playing in the sand at the beach, the pool was a huge hit. All the water toys and floating devices available were great and used a lot.

The bedrooms were just lovely, with VERY comfortable mattresses. The children's bedrooms...well, what can I say, Oliver, our grandson said it was like being in Disney World! The kids toys were much fun, but I personally loved the children's book collection, as I read to the kids quite often.

And now about the kitchen...I thought I had a pretty cool one myself, until seeing and cooking in the "Castle by the Sea" kitchen. Each couple in our family took turns cooking; one son-in-law is Executive Chef at a country club, and even he was impressed! It would be hard to find a better equipped home kitchen.

We rented several bikes for the week, along with kid seats and carts,which were delivered to the house, really fun and convenient.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home. You and Linda have been so kind. I'm sure we will try to do this again, hopefully next year!

Our favorite house in North Forest Beach!!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 26, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
This is our sixth year traveling to Hilton Head and staying in North Forest Beach. We had 17 people in our group and everyone agreed that this was the best house we have stayed in. The house had everything we needed, fully stocked kitchen, ice maker, two dishwashers, outside refrigerator, comfy beds, seating outside and inside for everyone, tons of bathrooms and it was clean, clean, clean! We live by the ocean at home and one of the families that was with us in the house lives on the ocean, so we tend to stay at the pool and not go to the beach that much. The pool area had a spot for everyone to sit and we had a hard time getting the kids out of the pool! The spa is connected to the pool which is something that we look for when renting a house. When the kids did get out of the pool, the huge garage was a hit and they would play chess or use the pool table. It also had plenty of room for all the bikes and golf clubs! The upstairs loft was another place they would hang out at night before they went to bed.

I would like to thank Debbie for everything, her attention to detail did not go unnoticed by our group!!

Best Family Vacation Spot -- EVER!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 9, 2012 Stayed: March 2012
We had a group of 18 family members between the ages of 17 to 81 stay at the Castle. We traveled from NY, FL, OH, IN, and WA. It was an absolutely amazing and wonderful vacation. Everybody (!!) thoroughly enjoyed the spacious home with all the amenities the owners could think of. All strongly agreed that this house plus it's proximity to the ocean, shopping, and restaurants was the best! The Castle By the Sea blew everybody away with the sheer size; the elevator to make the upstairs trips easier on my parents, the pool table, putting green, and even large chess board in the garage! The older kids (17 to 27) all loved the castle beds! The living room (wonderful couch and window seating) allowed everybody a prime spot for "movie night"! The easy walk and/or bike ride to Coligny was great for nightlife for the younger crowd too. The entire group is ready to book for next year! What great memories... Thanks for sharing this wonderful home!! We will soon be booking for next year.

The perfect vacation rental for multiple families!

I have stayed in this home three times and hope to stay there again. Each time I stayed with multiple families, all of which have young children. The home is fully equipped with everything you need to keep children and adults entertained. The kitchen is fully stocked and every little detail has been carefully considered. It really is a dream home! My children love to stay in the character themed rooms and I love that each room has a separate bath! If you have an infant or a toddler, you will be thrilled to not have to pack all those extras that you need to travel!

It is amazing and I HIGHLY recommend making this your next destination in Hilton Head!
