To be honest, I like it better than normal housing. At this point I spend more time at my Island Sanctuary than I do my own house ingame. The fact that I can queue up for stuff while there and exit back into it, and log out just to respawn in there when I log in helps things as well. Overall it fixes a number of things I dislike about housing atm, though I do wish it was a lot more customizable. If I could transfer my house and everything in it to the Island Sanctuary, I'd do it.
