I will say that if you have not had the opportunity to stay at the Sanctuary put it on your list! It is beautiful hotel, location and great service! Hotel is right on the Atlantic Ocean and it is a 3 minute walk from the hotel and the sunrises and sunsets are beautiful. I could go on and on, just make it a place to go even if it is just for a couple of days, stunning!

Superior Hospitality
While this resort is beautiful, world-class, it is the staff- Kristan and Veronica at the restaurant and Charles (Charlie?) who gave us insights on the art there who truly made our brief stay memorable and exceptional.
