Overall the condo was adequate. It needs some updates. The mattresses are old and need replaced. The door lock was very hard to use. The maintenance man said he had asked multiple times to replace the locks because people have a hard time using them. The company will not allow them to be replaced. The main complaint was pulling dirty dishes out of the cupboard and a bowl that looked like it had dried cottage cheese all over it.

The home had a nice layout.

The Sanctuary is a distinct mix of fabulous and dreadful. Beautiful buildings in a spectacular location with the single worst parking garages I have ever experienced. No-one told us there were three buildings, A B & C, each with a garage. After spending 45 minutes driving around under buildings A&B – the parking spaces are not numbered consecutively – we couldn’t get into C garage because we had a kayak on the roof of the car. We ended up parking outside in a handicap spot next to the elevator for our rental, wanting to find our unit before shlepping our luggage inside. At this point we were more than a little frustrated to discover the key card scanner did not work to open the door to the elevator lobby. We trekked back to the main lobby where the scanner worked and so were able to access the elevator from there. We found our unit, opened by a key not a scannable card. The key was extremely tricky, requiring almost gymnastic manipulations to open the door. The key was a constant irritant throughout our stay. Happily, once inside the unit, we found a lovely apartment with a beautiful view of the Sound. The Condo was nicely decorated with comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen. The clothes dryer didn’t work, but a repairman appeared very quickly and solved the problem. After such a rocky start, we very well may return to the Sanctuary. The beach was lovely, we enjoyed the proximity of the wildlife refuge, and the local ambiance. On a return trip, we would understand how the garages work and hopefully the key card reader and the door key problems will have been rectified.

Overall a great trip. The few things that could be improved - TVs are quite old and only had Netflix. You couldn’t add Spotify Apple Disney etc. The music box had CD but no blue tooth. -The grills available are beautiful but out of the 14 that were available only 1 would light. -The condo needs a thorough cleaning.

Great experience nice and quiet and beautiful view

The condo was lovely, clean and just as you see in the photos. Our only complaint was we were given the incorrect condo number and the entry code would not work. We did contact the office but since it was after hours it took some time to get the correct information. My only complaint was we were not given the welcome package which consists of hand soap, additional TP, sponge, dish soap, extra garbage bags or dish washing detergent. We spoke with Vacasa office we were asked to stop by the office and pickup what we needed. The staff was very professional and did have all needed supplies. We did have a lovely stay however when we were leaving we had a small problem. Another tenants dog deficated on the front door mat and my husband did not see it and tracked it into the condo. I did clean the floors and we did mention this to the Vacasa staff. They explained they cannot do much but will mention this on going problem to the Condo management team. Its not fair that the maids should be cleaning the outside door mats after peoples animals deficate. We clean up after ours so no excuse for this.

The condo was great! Right across from the Baja! This is why I booked it! Everything was great but I never found the reserved parking lot. There were some hairs on the floor. Other than that great stay! Really comfortable beds!

Great location right in the middle to Sandbridge, has a restaurant on the bottom of the condo, but parking situation is a little confusing.
