Excellent location

We’ve enjoyed coming to Sandbridge beach for 15+ yrs, always staying in the Sanctuary Condos. This penthouse unit was one of the best units we’ve stayed in for a variety of reasons- size of the condo, kitchen well equipped, bay side view, and reasonably priced. We would stay here again. Now that being noted, the rental agency needs to do better as the condo was not well cleaned before our arrival - we swept and vacuumed immediately upon arrival the crumbs left behind. Also there was an ant issue that was annoying - but the maintenance did come and install ant traps once we called. While the agency was very responsive to our call, I hope they took our feedback and sought out better cleaners. Unfortunate that the hot tub at the Sanctuary Condos remains closed and they haven’t been able to get the pool bar/ restaurant opened, but the unit owners do not control that. Overalll a good stay and would still return to same unit as the amenities were one of the best we’ve had while coming there.

Great place!

The place was everything we could have wanted for our vacation! We had a group of 9 of us and we had plenty of space and then some. The kitchen was nicely stocked with everything you could need to cook. We loved the pool and grill area. It was so great to be right on the beach. The location was great right next to 2 restaurants. The only downfall was the swim up bar was not open during our entire stay. We loved this place! Highly recommend for large families!

Nice place

Overall, good vacation. Things to improve, 1) provide instructions on AC, which thermostat controls what, 2) provide instructions on tv, 3) improve Wi-Fi, service was slow and tv did not work consistently, 4) need luggage carts for move in/move out, 5) revise parking spot numbering

Amazing condo

We love Sandbridge and return ever summer. This condo was spacious, clean and well decorated. The view over the bay was beautiful, especially to watch the sunset. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of dishes, pans and utensils and had so much space. The parking spots and storage locker were very conveniently located right off the elevator which made going to the beach each day easy. We already booked the same condo for next year.

Great property

This is a great place to bring your family. It is big and has plenty of rooms. The penthouse suite is amazing. They thought of everything even a baby monitor and playpen. I would definitely recommend this place. The only drawback was that two out of the four lights in the bathroom were burnt out and when we walked out to the different balconies we walk through spiderwebs.

Very nice apartment

The penthouse was very nice. It had enough space for everyone without feeling crowded. It's on the bay side of the building, and I enjoyed the view much more than a beach view. However, we were in building A, which is advertised as having a pool, but it was closed, and it looked like it had been closed for at a least a couple of seasons. You can use the other two pools, but the one near the beach is always crowded (and full of little kids) and the one in building A was not convenient. Also, since these are large beach-side buildings, that means LOTS of people, so the beach is very crowded. Same as if we had stayed in a VA Beach Hotel. Something to keep in mind. Still a wonderful vacation overall.
