I stayed at Hill Top Retreat for 2 months. It was obviously a great experience and my hosts were great. They were super helpful in helping me become acclimated with the area. The house is great and the distance between you and the beach may be a quarter mile at the most. From the street you can see it. Additionally, the hosts are not at all intrusive and respectful of your space and privacy. I truly enjoyed my time there and would recommend it to everyone.
