This is a well equipped 3 BR condo in the Sandridge section of VB. We enjoyed our stay spending most days on the beach. At night we mostly ventured to the main waterfront/boardwalk as there are more dining options there. However we found both nearby restaurants to be very good. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Great beach condo

We loved staying in this apartment, a literal minute away from the beach. Everything was clean and well looked after. Kids loved the beach and the pools throughout the complex. Two restaurants right outside were also very handy and delicious. We would definitely stay here again.

Sanctuary Condo

The host was very accommodating, and she had a great condo clean and ready for us! A short walk to the beach and restaurants made this a very easy place to stay. We will definitely stay here again if we make it back to Sandbridge. Thank you Karen!

Spacious and comfortable!

What a relaxing stay, lots of room for all of us to spread out and relax, and watching the sunsets at night was a treat. Karen was super helpful and responsive when we had an issue during our stay, she was a truly great host. The best part of sandbridge to stay, between the restaurant downstairs and across the street and the swim up bar for lunch you never have to drive once you arrive. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Amazing Sunset Views

We have stayed at the Sanctuary complex many times before, but this was by far the best view we’ve had over the bay. The sunsets were spectacular. The unit itself was clean and well-equipped steps from the elevator. We really enjoyed our home away from home for the week! Highly recommended

My family and I traveled from CT to VA for our niece's funeral. While this was an incredibly sad occasion for our family, this beautiful condo and location was true to it's name. Our stay at the Sanctuary at False Cape provided us the opportunity to find moments of sanctuary throughout our stay. The condo unit and the entire facility were beautiful! The location was perfect and the condo unit was absolutely perfect! It is clear that Karen takes incredible pride in her condo, tending to every detail and ensuring her guests have a wonderful stay. It is clean, well-appointed and beautifully decorated. The views of the bay from the balcony and the short walk to the beach provided the opportunity to watch a gorgeous sunset and walk the beach together. Karen is a wonderful hostess! She is incredibly responsive, and, imagine how we felt when we arrived to find a sympathy card and a supply of tissue packets for our family. Such a small gesture meant so much. I would highly recommend the Sanctuary at False Cape and especially Karen's unit. 10/10

Great place

The place looks just like the pictures. It was spacious, nicely decorated, and clean! We loved watching the sunsets over the bay every night. Our host was fabulous! We had to contact her and she answered us immediately. She was extremely nice! It was great having a choice of pools and we enjoyed 2 out of the 3. I would definitely stay here again!

Excellent place to stay

Condo was very nice and clean. The amenities were nice but unfortunately the one pool closest to our condo was closed and the elevator by our condo didn’t work for several days. Both were no fault of the owner. The beach was very close by and the swim up bar was awesome to have! There are lifeguards right there for added comfort.

Everything you need

We brought way more than we needed. This place was well stocked and convenient for hanging out at the beach. My husband thought the attached restaurant had the best tacos he's ever had (and ate there 3 times!). The owner, Karen was readily available when I had any questions. Everything was great!

Wonderful Stay

This condo is exactly how you see it on the VRBO site… and the sunsets are beautiful. This was the cleanest property that I have ever stayed in. I totally agree that if you are a cook, like me, you have just about everything you need to make your meals. I texted Karen a couple of times, and she responded immediately! I absolutely would stay here again, and would love to learn if Karen owns other properties! I cannot forget… the swim up cabana bar was closed, but the Mexican Restaurant made some very good drinks!
