This property is a place to leave your worries behind... very tranquil. The heated pool is heavenly, the bolón is the best I have ever had, the staff is friendly, attentive and accommodating and the beach is phenomenal... I have never seen so many different colored rocks in one place. The rooms are clean, the shower is hot, and the beer is cold. This is my second stay at the Sanctuary, and I'm looking forward to the next.

The hotel was absolutely perfect! It was very clean and safe. The manager of the hotel is always at the hotel to answer any questions and gave us a prime service. We ate the majority of our meals at the hotel because of how delicious and fresh they were. The property has its own private beach and is steps from the pool. We have fallen in love with this perfect hotel and look forward to returning next holiday season!
