We had a wonderful beach getaway! The condo’s location was outstanding, with easy beach access and a clean, comfortable, and well-maintained unit. The beds were very comfortable, and the bunk bed nook was perfect for the kids.The condo was in excellent condition, and the host was incredibly helpful with updates following a hurricane that went through the area shortly before our visit, as well as great recommendations.We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing family beach getaway. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Brooke is a great host. Very easy to work with, let us check-in early because the condo was ready early. Room was great, decorated beautifully, and beach chair/umbrella set included is a big plus. We will always choose Beach Retreat.
