About Sanctuary Beach Resort
Sanctuary Beach Resort sits on the coast at Marina, California, with the sea as a backdrop for outdoor ceremonies and elegant, modern interiors for the reception.
The resort offers 14 room categories, from the Deluxe Room with Ocean Front View for two to Panoramic Oceanfront Suites and Junior Suites sleeping up to four, so both sides of the guest list can stay on site.
A meeting and banquet space handles seated dinners, in-house catering covers the food and drink, and the property is accessible with on-site parking.
Wedding services and packages are published directly by the resort, and the nearest airport is Monterey Regional (MRY), which we estimate is around a 20 minute transfer.

What a gem of a place. We stayed in one of the suites by the bonfires and absolutely loved it. Literally right by the ocean!!! we fell asleep every night listening to the waves and honestly didn't want to leave.
