Couple, 50's, stayed off-season (April 2013), 3BR unit facing the bay. Location. We came for the birding and we glad to be next to Back Bay for early am and late pm hikes. It's centrally located to get to First Landing, MacKay Island and Great Dismal. The Food Lion is 8 miles out, but we were out every day anyway.... More

We have stayed at Sanctuary three times in two different units. We have always been very pleased and we've booked a longer stay each time. Important qualifiers: 1. We've always stayed in the spring; late April - early May. Cannot comment on the peak season when it is presumably much more fully-occupied, busy and noisy 2. We've always taken advantage... More

We stayed at The Sanctuary Resort Unit A117 “Island Times” and we were VERY pleased with the accommodations and the resort itself. It is on the bay side with a gorgeous view of the bay the sunsets were breath taking!!! The resort is beach front so we were just steps from the beach. The “Island Times” is great for anyone... More

Don't let the bad reviews discourage you. I guess everyone has a bad experience now and then. However, this place is wonderful. We stayed in B-107 Life Is Good. The balconies overlooking the ocean were amazing! We watched the dolphins play in the morning as the sun came up. We had never rented a condo before, but will most definately... More

Never been to Sandbridge Beach before. But were looking forward to staying at a beach that was supposed to be the opposite of the big resort towns - Virginia Beach, Myrtle Beach, etc. What did we get instead? Something worse. We have a unit that overlooks the pool area. No where in the contracts did it state that there would... More

We are truly sorry that your experience here at Sanctuary was not the best. Yes there is music out by the pools and it is provided by Sanctuary at False cape for everyone to enjoy. When you informed us about the music someone from the association (not the Realty Company) did politely explain about the music and how you could... More

We were 3 families who travelled together from Canada for a week long stay! We began the booking process in November 2011 and found it easy and convenient. There were a few hickups as we got closer to the date of our trip but the staff responded quickly and were able to alleviate all of our concerns. Check in was... More

Condo was really nice but pricey (although I have no idea of rental prices in Virginia Beach area). Pools were very nice, bbq was always available when we needed one and the fitness room was nice to have too. Great beach in front of the property and some nice waves. Everyone loved the stay.

We also stayed this past week and awoke to learn that our tent frame had been thrown into the ocean by a bunch of kids in the middle of the night. This account is from an eye-witness, Sanctuary's own security guard. Not only was the security guard aware of what happened (but chose to do nothing about it), it was... More

Our family has vacationed here for the past 5 summers and witnessed the decline in this property and value. Unfortunate since we had in past considered purchasing here. Perhaps they need to consider a criminal background check for renters, and counsel their security guard, who witnessed vandalism on the beach this week, and chose to address it or even notify...

We are truly sorry our guest had an unfortunate occurrence while staying at the Sanctuary, especially one that would eradicate the memories of four prior pleasant experiences. We strive to address any and all problems immediately when brought to our attention. We were quite surprised to read this review as we received no notification written or verbal to any Sanctuary...
