We had a great view of the ocean & the whole back of the property (pool, spas, etc) on the 4th floor! About 25 feet from our room was a rooftop patio overlooking the ocean & surrounding area. We loved the whole back area where the pool and spas, and little fire pit areas are. Great area to sit and eat the complimentary breakfast in the mornings and watch the waves! Breakfast was scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon, pancakes, waffles, bagles, fruit, juice, pasteries, and hot drinks. Room was good size, bed was large & comfortable. Coffee with kcups in the morning. Bath/shower combo. (My husband loves baths!) There is a restaurant that shares the parking lot on the property. They were good and delivered to your room, if you wanted.😊

Sanctuary Beach Resort was and absolute highlight of our trip! The location is stunning, right on the beach with breathtaking ocean views and direct access to the sand. Our bungalow-style room was beautifully designed, spacious, and had a private balcony where we could relax and watch the waves. The resort’s peaceful atmosphere made it the perfect place to unwind. We loved the fire pits in the evening, creating a cozy and romantic setting. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. The on-site restaurant served delicious meals with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. If you’re looking for a serene and luxurious escape along the California coast, Sanctuary Beach Resort is a must-visit!

This hotel was one of the greatest surprises of our road trip, we booked it very last minute mainly due to the very interesting price and we got an incredible room/small apartment, with bath robes, separate dining/living and bedroom, super comfy beds in a warm and nice atmosphere where everything was spotlessly clean. It was very well located to explore the incredible surroundings of Lake Tahoe and it suited our family of 4 very well. The café next to the hotel had also incredible nachos that they would also bring to the room! All in all we enjoyed it very much.

The employees were very kind and friendly. When we arrived late at night, she realized that we had made a reservation for the next day and helped us to correct this. The lady on duty was very helpful. Thank you once again.

Checking in was a bit of a problem, had to wait a bit after check in time to get our room. Other than that, it was great. Beautiful views of the mountain. Nice big deck. Great place. We loved it.

We loved the vibe of this place. Beautifully designed and decorated. Not your usual run of the mill place by any means. Peaceful, classy place. Would highly recommend.
