DESCRIPTION:
The name says it all! Sanctuary offers wonderful ocean views with a private pool and easy ocean access, located in Sea Dunes. This 3rd Row home is located just up the hill from the public beach access, only a short walk, and you will have your toes in the sand!

Upon entering the ground floor, you are welcomed into a tiled foyer, and just to the right, you will find the rec room. This room is furnished with a foosball table, a sitting area with a TV, a full bath, and 2 bedrooms. One room is home to a bunk bed, while the other has just 2 twins. Both rooms are brightly decorated to ensure a cheery beach attitude! This floor is the perfect hangout for the kids!
As you head up the stairs to the 2nd floor, you will discover the "bedroom" floor. There is a King master suite with deck access, a separate vanity and private toilet and shower, a room with a Queen bed with deck access that shares a bath with another room with a King bed. All of these rooms are delightfully decorated and make it easy for everyone to enjoy their own space. As part of the Spinnaker’s Fresh Bed Promise, all bed linens are laundered between guests, even the comforters.
The 3rd floor is the main living area, where the view of the Atlantic Ocean is what makes this home a hidden gem! Enjoy the view and the breeze from one of the rockers offered, a sure stress reliever! The open layout of this floor creates a spacious living space so the whole family can enjoy. From relaxing in the living area or dining area to sitting at the bar in the well-stocked kitchen, you are sure to be comfortable! Also on this floor, you will find a den area with a daybed and trundle. This room can be made private by shutting the doors, and a half bath is offered as well.
If you would like to bring your pup on vacation, please do! There is a $150 non-refundable pet fee, so please be sure to choose the option upon booking.

The home is as pictured and described. The main living space is the perfect gathering place after a day at the beach, which is a short walk away. The kitchen is fully stocked. The surroundings make it feel very private and secluded. The pool and hot tub are well maintained. Beach accessories (towels, chairs) should be brought as they are not provided.

Our family had a blast at this beautiful, well-stocked home! We appreciated the ability to communicate with Spinnakers who responded promptly with answers to questions or concerns! Thanks for a great week!

The only issue was we had no AC for the first 3 days. Once they installed a new unit, things were great. The pool was nasty by weeks end and feel it should have been cleaned mid week, but it wasn’t. The house was perfect other than those issues and we’ve already referred people to the Sanctuary

Pros: House was beautiful and well equipped. The check in was simple. A text to give you the house code, check on how things are going, reminders about exiting duties and farewell wishes. We needed a new gas tank for the grill and the realty company responded right away. The house has a well stocked kitchen has many pots, pans, utensils, glasses, plates, etc… Loved the decks and deck seating with the ocean views. You can really see and hear the ocean from the house too! Very close to the beach access. The beach is not in a crowded area. Maybe a con for some, but you will definitely get your stair climbing exercise in;). Located in a nice quiet neighborhood very close to the main bike paths and Emerald Isle Woods park just across Coast Guard Road. They provide 2 beach style bikes, but we ended up bringing our own. The park is great for viewing the sunsets.Con’s: The “pet friendly” amenity is misleading as there are no pets signs posted the fenced in backyard/pool area. Loved the privacy and seating of the backyard, but the many uncut hanging vines produced lots of pollen bits in the pool and hot tub that we ended up scooping and splashing away often. Also, there were ant hills in the backyard and in the patio pavers especially near the table. You have to be careful to watch for ants if eating outside. The outdoor shower’s hot water didn’t produce any water, so sadly, we didn’t use it. Lots of stairs.

First off this place had the best hot tub. It was comfortable and the jets hit just right. It matters to me. The pool was great as well. Place is less than 5 minute walk to the beach. Nice neighborhood to go for a night walk. This place was equipped with several items that other places have not have. From paper plates to board games to books to all you need to cook and eat with. The inside was wonderful. The top deck has a spectacular view with comfortable outdoor chairs. Just go. Book it. I’m done trying to convince you.

This house was great for our family beach trip. The location was super close to the beach and the walk was short even for little kids. The house was very nice and everything was very clean and tidy.
Our only small note is that the first floor got a little hot during the day and the dryer took a while to dry our clothes.
Would highly recommend for other families wishing to visit Emerald Isle.
