Lakeside The Retreat at 30a

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

When it comes to a beach retreat, you won't find a better location than this! The Retreat at 30a offers the perfect secluded feel while still being a short walk from sugar-white sand, Blue Mountain Creamery, Point Washington, and shopping galore. And, when you aren't making the best memories at the beach or in town, the shared pool (heated seasonally) in this community will be just the place to get your tan on as the kiddos play Marco Polo nearby.

Downtime spent at home base will be nothing less than a blast for the whole gang. The spacious interior is filled with natural light, tasteful beach-themed decor, and plenty of room for all to spread out between the living area, kitchen, and four bedrooms. Amazing restaurants abound nearby, yet there is nothing quite like a homecooked meal after an adventurous day, so hop into the full kitchen and show off your culinary skills using the gas range, stainless steel appliances, deep farmhouse sink, and all of the utensils and cookware you could imagine. When the sun begins to go down, step out to the furnished porch and sip a favorite beverage or gather with loved ones in the living room for a movie night. The kiddos will love claiming the bunk room as their own, and the primary suite boasts a deep soaking tub when you want to get a bit of peace and quiet.

Santa Rosa Beach is calling your name! Don't miss out on this truly special getaway.

House was beautiful. Outdoor Grilling area was a mess. Very dirty and looked liked no one had cleaned it in a while. Would recommend more mixing bowls as well. Only two large bowls on property.

Wedding Weekend

We had a family of 10 come over for a wedding this weekend. We were able to book the house on Thursday, check in on Friday and we were out by 10:00am on Sunday. It was a quick trip, but we had a great time! The house had everything that we needed and then some. The walk to the beach was not bad at all... 5-10 minutes. Overall we had a great trip and would definitely come back!!

First 'just okay' Vacasa Stay

Nice house located walking distance to a nice beach. Just right bedroom space for 6 adults and 4 kids. Living and kitchen areas a bit small. Golf cart and bikes were pictured when initially booking, but later disappeared, and were unavailable for guest use. Missing coffeemaker pitcher--asked Vacasa twice to rectify, but they never did. Outside of house was poorly maintained (weeds, owners' belongings scattered). Like I said... so-so stay.

HOT

Would not recommend staying here unless you like coming back from 100 degree temps at the beach to a home that’s 75+ degrees and not having access to the thermostat that is locked and controlled by the owner. After calling and complaining to Vacasa, We removed the air filter ourself to find it was disgusting and not being serviced. An AC repairman finally came out and admitted there was nothing wrong with the unit (outside of the filter needing replaced), that the thermostat was locked and running on fan mode. He was able to override it but that only lasted for one day. The house did not cool off until 11 PM each night once the AC was allowed to cut back on. Also, the front door is broken and can easily be pushed in from the outside, so there is no security at night. Ice maker is also broken, so we had to buy bags of ice daily. House is in a great location with potential, but is not being maintained well enough for the price to stay. Would not stay again.

Very nice!

This house was very clean and very nice! It was perfect for 12 twenty-three year olds on a girls trip - no one had to sleep on the ground on couch or anything like that. I will say we did have 1 complaint that was a pretty big one…the air conditioning was out from the moment we got there on Thursday up until Friday night around 7pm. We called late Thursday night after we all realized it wasn’t getting any cooler and it was hard to get in touch with someone but it was after hours. Someone finally called me Friday late morning and sent maintenance to come check it out. It wasn’t anything that they could fix so they had to call the AC people, who couldn’t get there until 5pm at the earliest. They finally fixed it and it was great after that but I will say that was unacceptable and should not have ever happened. They should have made sure everything was working properly before guests arrived. They were very nice though and we did receive money back for that very hot first nights stay. Other than that hiccup that could’ve been avoided, it was a really great house! The location is in a cute neighborhood. We had a large SUV that we would go drop off chairs, umbrellas, etc. and then come back and walk because it’s a long, hot walk with all of that stuff! We really enjoyed our stay (other than the AC)!

Great house for group

Great house, very clean and well stocked. Easy 10 minute walk to beach. House backs up to road so you can hear some traffic but owners supplied sound machines in bedrooms which helped a ton. Property manager was excellent and responded within minutes when I needed anything. Loved the outdoor shower for washing off kids. Neighborhood was great to ride bikes. Pool was fun and water was warm.

Retreat @ 30A

We love the Blue Mountain Beach area. This house and beach community did not disappoint. Our family (4 couples and a 13 month old) had a wonderful time. Plenty of space, a well-appointed kitchen and a front porch that's perfect for winding down after a long day at the beach.
