Fantastic view and location but serious issues. I booked a 3 night stay after my wife and I renewed our wedding vows. We wanted peace and quiet and a few romantic days. However........ 1. We left the first morning for the day and came back early afternoon. Before I could unlock the door to our suite, the door just pushed... more

I read the reviews before we booked this hotel, and it is a beautiful place. The staff was very friendly. We had a great trip, the bed was comfy,the view amazing, the room service food from the Kula Ranch was good too! The only bummer was they are working on the pool until November sometime, so if you're looking to... more

I recently stayed at this resort for three days in early October. The location is quite convenient to Monterey and Carmel while the resort itself is very private, quiet and provides a great break from the "every day". The rooms are tastefully decorated and have the amenities customary at most resorts, minus the microwave! Would have enjoyed having that in... more

You'll enjoy not just the beautiful ocean & dunes here, but the room itself as well. It's perfectly designed to view the ocean, t.v. , & fireplace. And the staff is attentive and helpful. We definitely plan to return. more

The room was small and lacked basic amenities such as a bedside table and lack of storage space, i felt i was living out of my suitcase as there was no where to put things.It looked dated and the... more

I had been searching for a hotel in Sausalito, CA but didn't want to pay $ 360.00 for a hotel room. I found the Sanctuary Beach Resort on the internet and decided to give it a try. All I can say is that we will come back again and again. Two friends of ours have already booked reservations for this... more

Without a doubt, the most unique, enjoyable hotel experience I've ever had. Location? Right on the beach. I mean, literally. You step out of your door, and you're on the sand. In fact, since the hotel is located amongst the dunes of a marine sanctuary, there are no cars allowed within the resort itself, so each room comes equipped with... more

Mostly great

The staff was helpful and freindly. The room was as advertised--right on the beach and easy walking to the pool. Using a golf cart to get around the resort was fun and someting the child loved. Getting into the pool required a special key which did not work. The first day, we asked for, but did not receive , a... more
