We loved our stay here! Shawn thought of everything one would need to have a home away from home. We loved the view and all the wonderful music, books, and games. Views are incredible and we hope to stay again!

The property was excellent. The property was tastefully furnished. Had everything we needed.
Could use more towels.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in March and the views were incredible! Communication was so easy with the owner and we made great memories! We felt so comfortable and the home is beautiful. I highly recommend his home!
Great spot and great host. The pictures do not do the views justice. Could have just stayed there for weeks and watched and listened to the ocean and waves. Really fantastic.
Our group of 11 had a wonderful stay. The veiw from the home is impressive to say the least. Short little walk dow to the beach to explore. Close to restaurants and the Redwoods. We would highly recommend staying to anyone. The host was very responsive and helpful. I hope we get to stay again someday.
This house was really cute & the covered outdoor deck was fabulous. The host sent a lot of information about the area and was very available during our visit. We only stayed 2 nights but wish we could have stayed longer. The personal attention and small touches makes this house a gem.
We spent most of our time on the deck while at the house. It was very cozy and homey. We had a group of 9 and had plenty of room. Property owner was very responsive and informative.
Such a gorgeous view! The porch and deck were great for all of us to hang out and enjoy the evening. Really appreciated that we were able to bring our dog and the little additional touches to help out dog owners (bags and hose to wash paws).
We stayed in this beautiful house with our small dog and practically lived on the covered back porch. It was spring so not too warm yet but the porch is so protected we were just fine spending time out there. In fact we ate out there every night. The pictures don't lie - the view is incredible and the house is very cute and well set-up. The owner checked in with us a few times but the house had everything we needed and we'd love to come back!
This is our second time staying at the Sunset Sanctuary, It’s wonderful!! It’s clean,Comfortable and the Views are amazing !! Upon our check in, There was a bottle of Wine, Chocolates and other little special things as it was Valentine’s Day! Was a wonderful surprise…. The Host Shawn is very friendly and is quick to make sure your stay is Perfect…
That back deck is amazing and saved us from the rain while still enjoying the great ocean views. Shawn was very pleasant to work with. Everything was extra clean. Only downfall is that the beach is rocky and not great for walking on with kids and dogs.
Great views, excellent location, and comfortable place.
Sunset Sanctuary is exactly as described. My wife and I spent 3 weeks there in Feb. '24. Loved watching the changing seas, whale watching from the deck or living room, and hiking in the Redwoods nearly every day. The location couldn't be better. Shawn was a great communicator and worked with me to accommodate a late change in booking dates due to a family emergency. Crescent City is one of our favorite locations and this was a perfect place to enjoy it. I hope to return again.
Loved the house! Nice big bedrooms. Two couches that folded out in the living so we all had plenty of space to sleep. Magnificent view of the ocean and a short walk or drive to the view that you can see from the house. The back porch has lots of seating and a gas grill too and of course this is a fantastic place to sit and visit while enjoying the look and sound of the ocean while it pounds on the rocks below!
We (2 couples and one child) had a wonderful stay at Sunset Sanctuary! The home was clean and bright with amazing views from the living room and upper bedrooms. It was well furnished and comfortable. The porch was a perfect spot to rest and spot whales out of the wind. The wood stove kept it very cozy. The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. We have stayed at several ocean front rentals in Crescent City over the years and are most likely to re-book this one with a group.
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
This was such a cute little cottage-like beach house on the older side but very functional and beautiful. The view of the beach was amazing! We all were very happy with choosing this home over a hotel.
Property is super easy to get to. Checking in and out is seamless and Shawn is super helpful to ensure it goes as such, too. Kitchen is well stocked. With everything the icing on the cake is the back patio. The views, the sounds, the peaceful nature of the ocean are amazing! Thank you Shawn for being an awesome host. A favorite for sure!
