We were very pleased with our stay! The condo was spacious, clean, and in a great location. It is about a five minute walk across a private boardwalk to the beach. Close enough to town to enjoy restaurants and shopping but far enough out so that the beach and roads aren’t packed. We would definitely stay again!

That private boardwalk to the beach sounds like the perfect five-minute walk, and we're glad the location struck such a nice balance — close to restaurants and shopping without the crowds. Great to hear the condo felt spacious and clean throughout your stay. Thank you for the kind words, and we'd love to welcome you back anytime.

Wife and I enjoyed our four-night stay. Just what we wanted and needed, it was close to the beach, close to town restaurants and grocery store, very nice condo. We enjoyed the beach view in the mornings and evenings from the patio. The condo had all the amenities. Easy check-in process and the host stayed in touch with appropriate communication and follow-up. Will return.

This was our second stay at this unit. Love the access to the beach and pool. Plenty of space for a bigger family. Getting access to the unit was easy and I appreciate not having to worry about washing towels or sheets. One of my teens brought her K cups and frother and was disappointed that there was only a regular coffee maker in the room, but she enjoyed the coffee down the street and I enjoyed a smoothie. This property is very close to food and shopping in the main part of town. The unit has aged a little since our visit a couple of years ago (rusty door knob on balcony door), but overall clean, nice furnishings, and very comfortable. The management company was available by text and there is an office on property.

Welcoming you back for a second stay means a lot to us. We're happy the beach and pool access continue to be a highlight, and that the space worked well for your family with easy check-in and everything close to the food and shopping in town. Thank you for the honest notes on a few details in the unit, which we have shared with our team so they can be addressed. It was a pleasure having you again, and we hope to host you and your family for a third visit.

The location was fabulous. We loved our stay. The only thing I would say is that we don’t have any beach toys. We ended up purchasing 2 boogie boards and sand toys and leaving them there for the next family to enjoy because we couldn’t fly back with them.

Really enjoyed our stay. Loved the beach view out of the living area and the main bedroom. the patio was a great place to enjoy morning coffee watching the ocean waves. The location was within .5 miles of the entrance to Sandfest. We did not hear any noise or disturbance from the Bachelorette Party in the unit below us. Our only complaint was the sliding door from the living area to the patio could not be opened. I would stay here again and recommend it to others.

It means a lot that you’d stay again and recommend the home. We’d love to host you in the future!

Friends Vacay

Our fave family vacay spot is Port A, so we brought our friends along this time to experience the island. Island Retreat is always a great choice for lodging because of it's ease of access to the beach, loads of on site amenities and updated in town condos.
