"Grateful I found my Happy Place to find peace after I lost my soul dog."

10.0

I had this trip booked as a bucket list resort to go with my dog, Chance. My dog passed away after 11 wonderful years with me before the trip. I decided to still go and brought his ashes. The staff went above and beyond making me feel at home and they were so kind and caring of my situation. They even placed my dog's name on the welcome board. The resort was everything I dreamed it would be and it was the perfect place to find peace and release my soul dogs ashes in the ocean. Thank you for helping me with my grief. I even got to see horses on the beach. Just a very magical experience that I hope anyone with a pet will have the opportunity to visit. [restaurant was excellant as well]

"Excellent and quiet retreat overall"

10.0

We selected the Sanctuary as our retreat for my spouses Birthday due to the location and overall 'vibe' of the Resort. To say that it blew all of our expectations out of the water is an understatement. The employees were attentive and thoughtful throughout our stay. The beach was well maintained and the area surrounding our Suite was quiet and relaxing despite there being other people in the adjoining rooms. The spa was excellent, the food was delicious and fresh, and the bed was very comfortable. Would absolutely recommend and will likely return ourselves in the future!

Very dog friendly, spacious ocean view suite!

Did not know it was mixed with timeshare residents. Needed more lawn or grass space for dogs, the timeshare area did not allow dogs but had grass.
