"Clean room, except the lizard… It does not have a restaurant and the area is such, that the gate is locked between sunset and sunrise. It does have a great air conditioner and water pressure. "

"Breakfast food was ok, staff ok, condition of dinning room, resturant , tired worn"

"Nice room, comfortable beds. Good shower, very friendly and professional staff. "

"Easy location for tour and airport pickups. Great staff who made sure that as a lone female traveler I felt safe and were kind and friendly. "

"Great stay, safest place to stay in town."

"The staff are incredibly friendly and always willing to help wherever they can—they truly deserve a big round of applause. I’ve stayed here twice now. The first visit was excellent, with a much better room, while the second stay was a little more mixed. The shower could definitely use some maintenance, and unfortunately the dryers in the laundry didn’t seem to work very well. That said, the accommodation is fairly basic, but it’s clean and perfectly adequate for a comfortable place to rest your head."

"The place looked abandoned & not open. Absolutely zero communication from the host about checkin process. The property had no access, was surrounded by a high wall & had high grass surrounding it on all sides. I repeat - it looked abandoned & very sketchy. My husband decided not to even stay there because it did not look to be in a safe area. We went to the Hilton Doubletree instead, which is a lovely hotel in Alice. I cannot recommend anything at all about VATU Sanctuary. "

"Large 1 bedroom apartment with kitchen & washer & dryer was perfect for our stay. Location in Alice is okay & there was secure parking. Unfortunately Alice is not always the safest location to stay but we did feel safe"

"Overall great experience, really can't complain. Rooms are clean, staff are friendly. Only wish the tables outdoors were wiped down or had a hand brush handy to wipe the tree bits off. "
