Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: They need better beds, better pillows, and buy a new couch. The appliances were all state of the art but furniture and most importantly beds were hard and sheets were cheap, not soft. Location isn’t walkable to DT. I could never get anyone from Sanctuary to answer nor call me back. Disappointing.

Summary: I had a great experience at Driftwood last week. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, and it's a five minute walk to the beach. Driftwood is bright and sunny. I loved the outdoor spaces - both the front yard with the fire pit and backyard hot tub. I cooked every night in the lovely, well-equipped kitchen. It was a perfect stay and I look forward to returning soon!
