Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

You'll fall in love with the contemporary, open floor plan of this top-floor condo, which boasts one of the few oversized balconies. It's also one of the only retreats offering full views of both the ocean and bay area, along with the outdoor pool courtyard.

This rare gem is filled with unique touches, from the multiple windows inviting natural light to the beautiful hardwood floors and ample comfortable seating for the whole family. The Mac Shack comes equipped with everything you need to enhance your stay, including games, books, DVDs, premium cable channels, a CD player with speakers, and a variety of movies for evening or rainy-day entertainment.

In the open-concept living and dining area, there’s comfortable seating for the entire family, a large TV with premium cable, a spacious dining table, and a separate desk area for computer use. One of the two private balcony entrances is just off the dining area. Next to the dining space is a full-sized kitchen, complete with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. You'll find everything you need to prepare family meals, from cookware to utensils and tableware.

The first main suite, located just off the kitchen, includes a king bed, dresser storage, closet space, a private bathroom, and the second access to the private balcony. Floor-to-ceiling windows let in natural light, so you can wake up to the sunrise over the ocean.

The second and third bedrooms are perfect for accommodating a large family, with a queen bed in the second bedroom and two twin beds in the third. The second suite also has a private bathroom, while both rooms feature ample closet space, dressers, and beach-themed decor.

You'll appreciate the convenience of the garage-level storage closet and two assigned parking spaces, located next to the elevator for easy access. At pool level, you'll find Viking-style outdoor grills and teak seating for the whole family.

The Sanctuary is a hidden gem in secluded Sandbridge, adjacent to False Cape State Park and the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. It’s Virginia’s only luxury oceanfront condominium complex, offering a quieter, less crowded experience than the main Virginia Beach oceanfront. Book today and don’t miss out on this beautiful vacation destination!

The use of condo amenities (with no additional resort fee) includes three swimming pools and two fitness centers.



Things to Know
The community pool is open annually from the beginning of June to the end of August for guest use. Pool dates are weather permitting and at the Condo Association's discretion.
The Sanctuary HOA schedules structural upkeep during the off-season, blocking off certain sides of the buildings, making it unsafe for our guests to be on the balcony. The balcony may not be available for guests from October to mid-May.
This property is managed by Vacasa Virginia LLC.

I loved the layout and location but the kitchen area was very dirty. Inside fridge wasn’t clean;,outside fridge and dishwasher were dirty; outside cabinets dirty. The kitchen sink faucet wasn’t working properly; unable to get any hot water. I did call Vacasa maintenance about these items, along with toilet running in master bathroom. Toilet was repaired and then a plumber came the next day to replace entire kitchen faucet. This unit needs a good thorough cleaning; my feet were black from walking barefoot inside. I have requested through Vacasa my cleaning fee be returned. In addition, the outside balcony was dirty and needs to be cleaned.

This home was spacious, beautiful, and exactly what our family of 5 needed. Off-season for our timing though - so no pools (if I had read carefully enough to see this, I would have chosen somewhere else), balcony railing was wrapped in plastic (new?) which was VERY loud in the wind. Construction outside happened every day and early morning. Because it was off-season, even half the boardwalk was closed. It was tough to find things to do since it was too chilly for beach time. Nobody seemed to care that there were actually people there - as opposed to the tourist-dazzling treatment you get during peak season. Otherwise, it was clean, had everything we needed for cooking. Locals are friendly and the on-site restaurant, while expensive, was to die for! It had my husband looking for beach homes :) Thanks for a great place to stay! I’d love to experience it when things are actually open! We had a great time, I’m just listing things I wish I had known ahead of time. It’s a nice place, nice area. We’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

While the condo is clean some things were left out of the description like some construction going on. The "ocean front" view describes the entire complex not the specific unit so the ocean was there from behind another building in a complex of four buildings. I was not happy about that. We watched movies at night with lights out but lights from outside I could not shut out. There was a light coming from the utility opening where the wall had been cut out and the light left on in the wall on the patio. All little things that added up to being one overall disappointment.

Description of condo was pretty accurate, and we anticipated the construction that was happening in the complex per description. We had an issue with the keys/entry, but Vacasa quickly fixed the issue. The reason why I gave a rating of 4 vs 5 for cleanliness...wasn't because the condo wasn't clean...it's because of the wear & tear of the carpet in the bedrooms, mainly the master bedroom. Layout of the condo is great and all the amenities are fine. Storage closet in the parking garage was important for us, we were able to fit our 4 bikes, beach toys and beach chairs in the closet.

The condo itself was nice and perfectly appropriate foe our family vacation. The owners have it nicely outfitted for a family. However, the experience with VACASA was atrocious to say the least. Condo was never cleaned. We finally cleaned it ourselves after several hours of being told someone was coming. The elevators were not working more than they were working throughout the week. The pool we were specifically told was open was, in fact, not open at all. I feel bad for the owners of these units that are relying on VACASA to market for them as VACASA simply seems to tell you what you want to hear rather than being straight with you.

The Mac Shack was very spacious, which was great! Nice place, fairly clean. Little things here and there that didn't ruin our trip at all - light bulbs out, screen doors hard to work or holes. Internet info provided was incorrect and it took multiple days to have someone help. One key set provided did not work and took multiple days to get corrected - this was very challenging with little kids who like to do different things... Pool did not open on time every day and was only heated some days and not others. I'm guessing all of these things were due to being short-staffed (like many places now), so maybe just temporary...
