The internet wasn't great when I was there. If someone thought - I could do some work while still taking time for a vacation, you might encounter some problems. Also, the window in my room had a crack in it. Other than that it was a very nice property with a lot to do around it.

Loud band first night. Property run down. Hole in window screen so bigs in room. Narrow beach. Oceanfront room not actually oceanfront, more ocean view so false advertising.

Great resort in OBX
The condition of the property is a little run down, but the service makes up for it. For the price, the property could do a little more in terms of cleaning cobwebs from the balconies, ensure lights in the room are dusted, and clean the mold off the bathroom ceiling. The room was clean, but there were some minor misses to take this to the next level. The room furnishings could use a minor makeover. Service was stellar from the front desk, bars, beach attendants, and restaurants. Do try the food at Kimball's Kitchen. It was amazing! We had a table reservation there, but opted to sit at the bar since we arrived early. I always find bar service to be more attentive than table service unless the bar is packed.

Really lovely resort in a lovely beach town. Great pools and beach access. Would recommend!

6/10 Good

Too many stairs for older people. Mediocre outdoor facilities, no ocean view from pools or restaurants. Restaurants (especially Life Saving Station) are extremely overpriced for the poor to mediocre food. The staff was very friendly and accommodating throughout the resort. The spa was nice but it was very hard to get appointments when you want them. I’ve been vacationing in the Outer Banks my whole life and have never been impressed with The Sanderling but just wanted a short last minute trip and decided to give it another try - will not go back.
