The Beach Retreat is a gem. My wife and I stayed for 5 days while in town for our friend’s nuptials and we found it hard to leave! It is an easy walk to the beach, and the great shops and restaurants of Bluff Park. We leveraged the public bike and scooter share to get everywhere else - including Downtown and Belmont Shores.
I know you’re thinking: but the kitchen is shared?? Not an issue!! The property is so beautifully landscaped and designed for outdoor use that it’s less like leaving your unit to get to the kitchen and more like walking through your outdoor living room to get there. The impeccably manicured gardens are an extension of your space and we never felt crowded or like our privacy was compromised.
And we can’t say enough about Sasha and Wendy. Consummate hosts while never being intrusive.
Can’t wait to visit again!
