Sanctuary beach resort
The location is beautiful and it’s a dog friendly hotel which is why I chose it. The staff was friendly and generally helpful. The Salt Wood restaurant was delicious and they had a menu for my dog. The room was spacious, designed well and had drink and snack offerings included. I loved that it had a fireplace, large soaking tub and shower. Unfortunately, the shower didn’t drain well and the bed mattress had very little support. It was way too soft and I woke up with back pain. 1 of the 2 reading lights and an electric plug next to the bed didn’t work. I was in a bottom level suite and could hear quite a bit of noise from the people above me, as well as when the room next to me opened and closed their door. Lastly, the EV charging was misleading. The app said the rates were set by the hotel and offered free overstay charging from 12am-9am, with a 1 hr grace period. When I unplugged my car at 9:30am, after charging overnight, I was charged for a 30 min overstay. The front desk receptionist stated that the EV company set the rates and I would have to contact them to dispute the charge. I explained that the app said the hotel set the rates. She seemed confused and said she would relay the info to the manager. The lobby is very welcoming with a spacious seating area, fireplace, coffee, hot chocolate, tea and fruit available 24h. The issues I had were manageable, I would be happy to stay there again.

Zen Getaway
I just wanted to get away to a peaceful place & rest. This hotel was exactly what I dreamed of. Beautiful location. The staff members were friendly and helpful. They are very pet friendly even providing your pet with their own bowls and menus! I had an Ocean View Suite. Fireplace, comfy bed, room service, delicious food, yoga, jacuzzi and the room was cleaned daily which was nice. I will definitely come back for more!

Lovely, tranquil hotel in a great location!
Such a tranquil well appointed hotel with fantastic views of the sunset over the water. We loved that they lit up several fire pits at Sunset every night. Such a treat! We definitely plan to return.

Almost perfect
It is a lovely hotel for a weekend getaway with your dog. The room and the service were excellent. Onsite Restaurant is delicious. Free bonfires on the beach every night, walkable to the beach with many happy dogs! The only negative thing is that the walls are thin, and if you are on the bottom floor, you'll hear everything above you, especially the happy paws in the early morning hours.

This is my go to place when traveling in the area. They have just recently done some renovations and absolutely love what they’ve done. Very clean, comfortable and dog friendly. Wonderful ocean view with beach, bonfires and chairs to enjoy sunsets. The restaurant there Saltwood is great too.
