About this property

Beachfront • 2 King Primary Suites • Walk to Pier Park

  • 🌊 The Sandcastle at Calypso

    Some beach vacations feel like you're staying in a condo.

    The Sandcastle feels like you're moving into your own beachfront home for the week.

    Located directly on the beach at Calypso Resort, The Sandcastle was thoughtfully designed for couples, families, and friends who want a vacation that's comfortable, convenient, and wonderfully easy from the moment they arrive.

    No crossing busy streets.

    No packing up the car to get to the beach.

    No sacrificing space for location.

    Just unpack, stop by the grocery store, and let your vacation begin.

    Why We Love the Second Floor

    Many people assume the higher the floor, the better the vacation.

    After spending time here, many guests discover something different.

    Everything is simply... easier.

    Need one more item from the grocery store?

    An easy trip.

    Heading to dinner at Pier Park?

    You're back before you know it.

    Want to squeeze in a workout?

    The beachfront fitness center is just one floor above, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Gulf.

    Rather take the stairs than wait for an elevator?

    They're right beside the condo.

    When you're carrying beach chairs, groceries, sleepy children, or just ready to relax after a long day, those little conveniences become some of the things guests appreciate most.

    A Balcony You'll Actually Use

    Not every beachfront balcony feels the same.

    Ours is one of the longer balconies at Calypso, giving everyone room to spread out instead of feeling crowded.

    The mature palm trees below create something that's surprisingly rare—a feeling of privacy without taking away the view.

    Enjoy your morning coffee in the rocker.

    Read a book in the afternoon shade.

    Watch afternoon thunderstorms roll across the Gulf.

    End the evening with a sunset that never seems to look quite the same twice.

    This isn't just another balcony.

    For many guests, it becomes their favorite room.

    Designed to Feel Like Home

    One thing we hear over and over is...

    "It looks exactly like the pictures."

    That's intentional.

    We'd rather pleasantly surprise you with how spacious it feels than disappoint you with clever photography.

    The open living area invites everyone to gather together while still giving each person room to relax.

    The two recliners were chosen because vacation should actually be comfortable.

    The artwork was selected to make the condo feel warm rather than temporary.

    The crown molding adds a quiet touch of craftsmanship throughout the home.

    Even the televisions work the same way with Roku, so you're not learning a different remote in every room.

    Little things?

    Maybe.

    But those little things add up to a much better vacation.

    The Timeout Collections Difference

    We believe the best vacations aren't created by having the most amenities.

    They're created by removing the little frustrations that keep you from relaxing.

    When everything is easy...

    When everyone has space...

    When you can walk to dinner, step onto the beach, or simply sit on the balcony listening to the waves...

    Something changes.

    You stop thinking about the schedule.

    You stop thinking about work.

    You stop thinking about everything waiting for you back home.

    And that's what a Timeout is all about.

Better than pictured

Great space with ideal location. The space is perfect for a family; walking distance to so much and the beach & pool are right out the door. Even with the prime location, there wasn’t too much noise - with it being Spring Break that was a relief! We recommend and hope to be back!

Beautiful condo

This condo was perfect for my family. My husband and I traveled with our grown son and his girlfriend. The accommodations were perfect. Plenty of space. Beautifully decorated. The owners parking was a game changer. No more fighting for a good parking spot. Location is convenient to Pier Park. Penny was just a phone call away. Answered all my questions and was a true joy to work with. We can’t wait to stay with Penny in the future!

Beautiful Unit in a Great Location

A very nice unit and condo. Our kids appreciated the second King bed, since both are taller than us. With the unit being on the 2nd floor it's very easy to get out to the pool or the beach. It's right next to the elevator or the stairs, and there's a also a nice staircase on that floor where the business office is that takes you down a level to the pool and walkway to the beach. There's a trade-off being that low, with the balcony view somewhat obscured by palm trees and you're right above the pool. The included umbrella/chair service also makes it much easier to just go out to the beach and sit. No need to set up an umbrella or shelter. You can take the elevator or regular stairs down to the owner's garage. It's nice having a private garage knowing you always have a spot, and not much traffic coming through. Be aware that the space is tight, with two small spots bordered by concrete walls. We have a minivan and a huge SUV was next to us the 1st day, so my wife had to get out before I pulled in. A few days there was no other car, and a smaller sedan the last few. There's an elevator that only goes to the third floor. That limits wait time, although we only used it when we moved in and when we checked out. The stairs were easy. There's no official check in or check out process. Just text Penny to let her know when you arrive and when you leave. Very convenient compared to other places we've stayed. There could be more spoons (only a few teaspoons). We got by, though.
