“The Sanderling holds a prime spot in Duck, offering access to both the ocean and sound. Dining is clearly a focus, with a celebrated chef overseeing the menus, and I noticed a commitment to wellness through the spa and customized retreats. While the setting is idyllic for leisure, the event spaces also make it a contender for weddings and corporate gatherings.”
