I went to this resort in mid-May and this place was the best! They even have golf carts that transport you to your car and back.
Parking: This place has a big parking lot, and it is often that most of the spots are available. So the parking is good.
Customer Service: The staff are very nice, and they like chatting with the resort guests.
Best Part: The staff are friendly, lots of activities to do here, and also there are lots of good restaurants nearby! There is a long street nearby called Reservation Road and that street has lots of good restaurants.
Worst Part: There are a lot of crabs.
Tips/Recommendations: Try their hot chocolate with 2 Nestle Chocolate packets!
Return: I will!

While looking for a wedding venue we had the Sanctuary on the top of our list. We called them multiple times, discussed various options, and settled on a plan, date, and options that would fit our budget and needs. When we went to tour the property, the event manager was about 20 minutes late and never apologized. When we received our copy of the contract to sign, the resort added thousands of dollars of fees and services we had not discussed nor approved. When we asked them to call us so we could discuss the overall unapproved cost which had almost doubled, we did not hear from them for over a couple of months. When we did, we were asked if they could book another event in our place. They never asked what had happened with our concerns for the added non discussed fees in the contract, they never apologized for not calling us, and they showed how they just did not care. If I was looking to have a special/sentimental event in the area, I would not choose the sanctuary. I would think most people would want people who care or show they care while providing a service on their special day. In my opinion, my property, back yard, or the alley down the street is a more welcoming venue. I’d go anywhere but here.
Updated: Sanctuary, if you knew what a sincere apology was, someone from your organization would call to apologize which hasn’t happened. I shouldn’t have to call you to solicit an apology from you.

We've been coming here since 2015! It's our special place. You cannot beat the proximity to the beautiful beach. It's so close, like a 1-minute walk! I love the bonfires, falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, and the sunsets from your very own balcony. The rooms all have fireplaces and it's so cozy. The TVs have Chromecast, which is great! The staff is wonderful (shoutout to John, Stacey, and Danny!) and they remember you at Sanctuary.
The GM sent chocolate-covered strawberries and a bottle of bubbly to our room for our anniversary. The best part was the handwritten note. It was a personal touch. We felt so special. Thank you for your hospitality, Sylvain! And thank you for always saving us our favorite room.
And thank you Justin and Nesteor for a phenomenal dinner at Salt Wood. You guys took such good care of us and went the extra mile. The new head chef is awesome. Passionfruit hot sauce? What?! We really enjoyed the trout and the duck. Both were grilled right before our eyes. Sit at the bar! It smells so good because of the wood fire and Mariah makes a delicious espresso martini! It's a really pretty restaurant. Brunch here is also awesome. I love the breakfast burrito and the burger. And they have a puppy menu. SO CUTE!
The rooms do need to be updated, but I know they're planning a remodel soon. There's also a pool and a hot tub. AND THEY ALLOW DOGS! It really is the perfect Bay Area getaway.

Apparently people are hanging clothes from the Ceiling-Fire-Sprinklers (2 signs asking you Not too). However, I do see why, as there is no place to hang WET clothes...If only they could put lots more HOOKS, there is plenty of wall space! But super clean and awesome service!

Beautiful place location and comfortable room. We had a rental car to visit nearby places like Carmel by the Sea, Big Sur, Lobos Point Park, Nepenthe restaurant, Carmel Valley vineyards etc. Our room was facing the ocean and the dune. We checked out the binoculars from the front desk and were able to see a seal, a dolphin and a whale on various mornings. We were shocked by the beauty of Carmel and Big Sur areas.
Make sure to check the weather and bring appropriate clothing. Morning fog from the ocean often brings cooler air from the bay, but it does not detract from the experience.
