We ended up leaving early (late last night 9/22/23) when I discovered mold in all the air conditioners and a colony fuzzy mold under the cabinet in the first floor bathroom/laundry room. Myself and my youngest became very ill while staying here with sinus issues, asthma attacks and sore throats. I am sure the owner of the house has no idea this is going on as the property is managed by an Asian company called Vacasa. I took MANY photos. Other issues include: 1) The house was impossible to find as Vacasa provided the wrong address. They said it was on Onondaga Street in a non-existent zip code. They then proceeded to send me down a variety of dead end dirt roads until we’re inadvertently found the house on Onondaga Road in a different zip code…in the pitch black darkness no less! 2) There were live roaches in the lighting fixtures. 3) There was a composting bin on the countertop filled with recently discarded food, which attracted ants. 4) While the kitchen was outfitted with all the necessary accoutrements to cook all our meals, the dishes in the cabinets were dirty and it looked like roach droppings on the silverware. All-in-all, it was just gross. We stayed five of our six nights because the Vineyard is amazing, but hastily gathered up my family and lifer last night because I discovered, while trying to find the root cause of the illness were were experiencing in the house, large deposits of black, grey and even orange mold throughout the house. Totally disgusting.

Lovely home in a secluded area of MV. We had three generations and it was great for all. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio in the mornings and evenings. A good place to rest after a day of activity. Was very clean and all amenities in working order. The beach supplies - chairs, umbrellas - were a welcome bonus.

The Island Sanctuary is just okay. I went at peak time which I understand is more mo ey, but this house was WAY overpriced. Why they promote the lagoon in their description I have no idea. It smelled musty upon arrival.. The back deck chair was broken, cushion had a hole in it, the floorboards in the outside shower were not secured and lifted up in the air when stepped on. The water line on the refrigerator was not hooked up so I had to buy water and ice everyday. The microwave handle was broken with an apparent attempt at a duct tape fix. I tried to contact the designated contact person when the keurig stopped working and she didn't respond. At the risk of sounding like a Karen, I will say that the beds were very comfortable and it is roomy enough for 5 people. Keep looking though...you can find something better for the price!

I feel like it was a lot to ask for the bare minimum, but it was fine. Clean enough. Certainly out-dated and the window air conditioning units were really load and old.

Overall, this is a nice place to stay while in MV. Like a lot of "Managed" properties however this one suffers from wear. Screen door material ripped, floors need to be refinished, furniture had needed some repair, vertical blinds kept falling off, microwave handle broken etc, however the biggest condition item was easier to fix: Clean this house better. Stove vents loaded with grease as well as cabinets. Remove Stove and Refrigerator and clean the accumulated dirt and food. Overall, we would return expecially if the house were cleaned. Suited us perfectly.

Ample space in the house for all of us. Furniture was great, deck was great. I definitely wish there was more dish ware in the house, I found it difficult to cook at times. And the bathroom upstairs could use an update. But otherwise, great stay, and full a/c was AMAZING.

We came to visit for my cousins wedding weekend. With 6 people in our party it was a perfect fit. The house was spotless, and spacious. We really enjoyed having this space to enjoy during our time together, would definitely come back! The only reason I didn't give five stars was the bed was not very comfortable, other than that great experience!

Had just about everything we needed. Quiet at night. 10 minute drive from oak bluffs and vineyard haven downtown areas. Definitely need a car. Main bathroom is old and dingy but was clean. No complaints- would return!

The house is wonderful! The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is lack of parking. The description of the property states parking for two cars.
I have a full size truck and it barely fit buy its self. There is also a small tree growing into the side of the driveway. Watch your mirrors.

We loved our stay at Island Sanctuary. The reason we gave it a 4 out of 5 was due to ants in the kitchen. The rest of the house was quaint and perfect for our little family + pet get away. A/C, a nice back patio + outside shower, grill, a kitchen area, and TVs in most of the rooms. Plus it’s close to town/state beach/ ferry.We recommend having a vehicle to access this property but overall it was a great property for the price!

Great property
The property is very nice and as described in the listing. Comfortably sleeps 7. Very clean. It is a little outside of town but there were plenty of Uber/Lyfts to get us around. Used them to get around the whole island. ACs worked great. Loved the outdoor shower. Thanks!

Awesome, Quiet, Comfortable, Up to date
Beautiful home, great location, close to the action but off the main path. Family friendly vibes. Lagoon Pond and beach are within walking/riding distance. Family enjoyed the kitchen/dining nook, eating together and hanging out, but also had enough space to stretch out into the bedrooms with no problem. The house was so comfortable that towards the end of our stay, it became a chore to rustle the troops to get out and explore - the kids were truly enjoying the environment. Nice touches and my wife told me everything she'd thought of was covered. Happy wife.... When we visit MV again, we'll be looking to book this property.

House is dark inside. Needs better lighting.
TV are too old. Limited channels. Downstairs & Up stairs. Clean. Few dollars on lights & up date TVs. Make this a much better location.
