Enjoy the beach while you are in town! You don't have to stay at the Sanctuary to have an umbrella and chairs waiting for you on the sand! Through the link below you can call and reserve chairs/umbrellas for the day and they will set them up at the nearest beach access point to your villa with your name on them. When you are done, just leave them and the resort will collect them at the end of the day.
