Amazing!
We were a group of 7 girlfriends staying for a long weekend. The property was perfect for us. We each had our own bedroom and only 2 had to share a bathroom. The house is well equipped inside and out. There is beach gear available including chairs, umbrellas, toys, and everything you might need in the kitchen. They even had a karaoke machine! We truly had the best time, despite the cold weather. We even had a campfire on the beach. Lovely house, lovely weekend!! We will most definitely consider coming back again.

Family Beach Getaway
Very nice house and amazing views of the beach and ocean. Was not crowded at all - and most days we were pretty much the only people on the beach. The host has definitely thought of everything! Can't wait to come back again.

Best house we've ever had
It has become a tradition for my family to do a yearly weekend at the beach we have come across many homes but this house is by far the best one. Communication with Natalie was great. House was so spacious, clean, AC works great, water doesnt have a nasty smell. Anything we forgot this house had. You can tell Natalie and her husband actually care about their guests experience. I will definitely be booking in the future. The only thing I can complain about is the beach; it was a little dirty there was some type of black material in the sand/beach so we had to move up a little. There was alot of jelly fish but its not like Natalie has control over this. Also the house moves.

Family getaway
We took a family trip to celebrate a wedding nearby and it was the perfect location! Not only was the scenery beautiful but the house itself was maintained extremely well. One of the cleanest stays I’ve had in a long time and communication with Natalie went very smooth. She was always ready to help and helped us solve any WiFi problems. It fit 8 adult couples comfortably as well! Would 100% stay here again

Beautiful House with Great Location
This home is just beautiful and it had everything we ever needed and more. They also had beach chairs and sand toys for us to use. The location was amazing! It was really right on the beach! My parents were with us and they could make the walk to the beach everyday with ease. We loved this house so much!

Amazing Beach Front
We were extremely pleased with our stay at the Seaside Sanctuary. The Hostess went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. They quickly answered any questions we had or needed. The rental process was so quick and easy. The hostess helped us with local information and links to see the activities in the area. All amenities we needed were there. It has Spectacular ocean views from the top floor, dinning area and a great outdoor patios. The beach itself was peaceful and we felt very safe. We truly enjoyed the ocean and loved our entire stay. Every bedroom is uniquely decorated. So comfortable made me feel at home. The best Vrbo we have ever stayed in. Luxurious yet comfy. We will make this a yearly family affair for sure. I liked this time of year, weather was perfect for us.

The Seaside Sanctuary was absolutely perfect!
I recently stayed at the Seaside Sanctuary. As soon as you enter the house, you're greeted with beautiful decor that truly makes it feel like a peaceful sanctuary. If you're looking for a place to relax and feel pampered, this is it. The furnishings were elegant, cozy, and plentiful enough to accommodate large groups. Plus, the location right on the beach provided breathtaking views.
I've stayed in rentals all over the world, and this is easily one of my new favorites. Michael and Natalie have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and convenient. The house can comfortably sleep up to 28 people, with ample seating for meals. The two refrigerators were particularly impressive - they easily stored all the food we needed to feed our group.
The beds were incredibly comfortable, and every room had a ceiling fan to keep things cool. They even had extra fans available in the closets for those who needed them. Plus, the house had a highchair and other baby gear, as well as a dog gate to block off the stairs. Hooks on the back of every door made it easy to hang up towels, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you'd need to cook a lavish meal.
The real highlight for us was the variety of beach gear available for use. Chairs, wagons, boogie boards, umbrellas - they had it all. The outdoor areas were perfect for cooking out or enjoying a cup of coffee while taking in the ocean views. We are already planning on making the Seaside Sanctuary an annual trip.

Great Place for larger groups
The bedrooms just keep showing up! The house is right on the beach with plenty of room. The kitchen was well furnished with 2 refrigerators, silverware, plates, etc. All of the bedrooms and bathrooms were amazing to have as well. I will be booking again the next time we need to put up a large group of family & friends.
