Travel + Leisure ranked The Sanctuary number five in their list of top 100 hotels for the continental US and Canada for 2007. This comes just shortly after being named a five star hotel by AAA earlier this year. Undoubtedly, The Sanctuary's pristine location along the shores of Kiawah Island and its luxurious and exquisite design make it more than qualified for this high distinction.
The Sanctuary offers 255 spacious rooms and suites, including the 3,000 square foot Presidential Suite. It is characterized by grand spaces with high ceilings and traditional but light southern decor highlighted by antiques. There is a view of the ocean from almost every corner, but The Sanctuary's fine dining restaurant, The Ocean Room, may have captured the view the best. The menu offers meals that coincide with the restaurant's elegant atmosphere. The pool, spa, and other eateries inside the hotel also add to an ambience of excellence.
In Travel + Leisure's 12th annual poll, readers named the very best in travel, from hotels to cities to islands, along with all of the operators and outfitters who make the journey possible. The 2007 winners reveal much about the readers' evolving, but always exacting, standards of excellence. The results of the World's Best Awards are compiled through a questionnaire created by the editors of Travel + Leisure magazine and completed by its readers.
