The Sanctuary Beach Resort

3295 Dunes Dr, Marina, CA 93933

The Sanctuary Beach Resort invites you to experience a luxurious seaside escape in Monterey Bay. Nestled between the Carmel Valley's rolling hills and the Marina Dunes' ocean tides, this tranquil retreat is marked by natural beauty, thoughtful amenities, and world-class area attractions. The resort is ideal for romantic escapes, family vacations, group getaways, and weddings.

Staying here, you'll have near-endless options for relaxation and adventure. When you're not taking advantage of the private beach access or lounging by the pool, you can enjoy beach yoga, fitness classes, hikes along the dunes, bocce ball, and sunset bonfires.

The Sanctuary Beach Resort is also home to Salt Wood Kitchen & Oysterette, the award-winning Monterey Bay destination for experiencing coastal California cuisine. Immerse yourself in a unique seaside atmosphere, where an oyster bar acts as the centerpiece and a live-fire kitchen showcases grilled masterpieces. Guests can dine in the full-service dining room, lively bar and lounge, or open-air patio.

From intimate gatherings to grand ceremonies for up to 150 guests, The Sanctuary Beach Resort is the perfect setting for special events in Monterey Bay. Here you'll find elegant indoor and outdoor venues, contemporary design, state-of-the-art technology, and convenient services that will create memorable moments for you and your guests.

The Sanctuary Beach Resort is a short drive from attractions in Monterey and Carmel. Our Guest Experience Team will happily arrange whale-watching excursions, Moss Landing foodie tours, Big Sur hikes, and more.
