This little gem was right on the beach. They had beach chairs, toys and even a couple of boogie boards for us to use. Private beach meant we were never crowded. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

When we arrived, we were escorted to our room where the ac and tv were already on for us. The very pleasant woman at the front desk also offered to help us carry our luggage to the 3rd floor where our room was. Everything smelled and looked sparkling clean. I only wish we had realized ahead of time that our room was not on seaside. We still had some great views and loved the spot regardless. The only constructive criticism I could offer would be that they did not have travel sized shampoos and conditioners and other small toiletries available for guests to either be given or for purchase.

Relaxing in RI
The hotel was very accommodating to our needs during our stay. This was our first visit to Westerly and the Sandcastle Inn. The room, balcony, patio furniture were all extremely clean. The property was very well maintained and you can tell that this family run business takes much pride in their property. The location right on the beach and private beach access was ideal for us, as we do not love being crowded or amongst loud crowds while relaxing. We were thoroughly pleased with our stay and will definitely be back.

We had some trouble with the "longterm stay" homeless man who stays in Room 1 (below us), who is apparently "employed" at the hotel. The man pounded on our door at 6:30pm for "being too noisy" (we have a 4 year old) and despite our friendly assertion that it wouldn't happen again, he was unreasonably aggressive and threatened us that he "didn't want to have to come back up here again" as he walked away. The hotel is honestly in ruins. No shampoo provided, and homeless (drunk?) people as staff who will threaten you for using your room as intended, during daylight hours. Missing outlet covers, rotten water-damaged cabinets, nonfunctioning bath tub. Take your money elsewhere, or you'll regret it (we certainly did).
