NEW! The Emerald Isle A-Frame • 2nd Row • Modern Surf Retreat
Bodhi's Retreat - A Rare, Stylish & Modern Beach Escape on Emerald Isle!
Steps to Beach • Stylishly Restored A-Frame • Dog Friendly • Bikes Included
Welcome to Bodhi's Retreat, a one-of-a-kind A-frame on Emerald Isle that has been beautifully restored and modernized into a true oasis! Second row from the beach, Bodhi's Retreat is a stone's throw from public beach access with a beautiful tree-lined path to the beach. A rare beach A-frame, this stylishly upgraded home creates a boutique-style beach retreat unlike anything else on Emerald Isle.
Perfect for couples, friends, or small family gatherings, Bodhi's Retreat offers a unique alternative to the mega-mansions that dominate the island--warm, stylish, modern comforts and upgrades, and memorable from the moment you arrive.
Location, location, location! Just steps from a lovely public beach access, you'll stroll to the ocean along a serene tree-canopied path--one of Emerald Isle's hidden gems. Spend your days playing in the surf, fishing, shelling, or reading under the sun. When you're ready for restaurants, ice cream, or shopping, the island's central district is just 3.2 miles away. We provide beach cruisers so you can enjoy Emerald Isle's well-maintained bike path that runs the length of the island.
