We stayed at this property on our annual girls trip. The house was exactly as described and pictured. The kitchen was well equipped. We loved having the pool and golf cart. The house was convenient to great shopping and restaurants. We appreciated the stater package (paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher pods etc…) The management (Jessica) was very responsive to texts and easy to work with. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Let me first start by saying that we have traveled to the area 9 times in the past 12 years. We have stayed in condos and we have stayed in homes. I am incredibly picky when it comes to choosing a property to stay in. With that being said, this was, by far and away, the BEST property that we have ever stayed in.
I originally chose to book this property because we have stayed in Paradise Retreat many times before, but this was the only property to ever offer the golf cart IN the cost of the booking. HUGE PLUS! Also, the pool looked amazing. But when we arrived, I could not have been more pleased with our decision. The home is immaculate. It smelled clean the moment we walked in. The owners provided some necessities, such as hand soap, laundry detergent packets, dishwasher packets, etc. All things that we brought along because we have never stayed at another property where these things were provided. That right there puts these owners in the "above and beyond" category!
We had two small incidents that we needed to contact the property manager regarding (nothing that they did wrong - one was a trash issue and one was a gate code issue), and they were instantly responsive.
I would 150% stay here again - probably every time that we come down in the future. We were all impressed with every detail of them home.
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful piece of paradise with us! It was THEE best trip that we have ever taken to the area!

House was just as described. Golf cart was a must, awesome to have, handy and nice to get to beaches and small local stores bear beach area. House was super clean and so was the pool. We stood there 1 week and pool guy was there mid week and then there again once we left, which was good to see! We been on other homes where pool has been disgusting, and this was not the case here. Host was amazing, super nice, responded quickly to anything. Plenty of cooking pans, plates, silverware etc! House was fully equipped. We enjoyed the house very much and will return next year for sure. Oh also one last thing, i forgot a blanket which was very special to me and i called Jess to see if they found it and could ship it back to me and she arrange the shipping and i paid for the shipping cost. I don’t think any other place would do that. Thanks Again Jess for everything. I definitely recommend this place.

My husband and I brought our adult children and grandchildren plus our daughters dog to the beach. The house has a good size pool with plenty of lounge chairs. Included with the house is a golf cart that we enjoyed going to the beach and restaurants plus our nightly ice cream run. Included are lots of huge nice beach towels and plenty of beach items- toys, chairs etc.So glad we found this gated community. The only really disappointing was a 5 pm checkin. We liked having 2 king beds plus a queen and 2 sets of bunk beds. *****

This was a fantastic experience. If there was a way to leave more than 5 stars I would!
The house is exactly like the picture. Everything you needed was provided.
Jessica the host is wonderful to work with. She actually let us check in a little early when she found out we were already in town. She is very easy to get in touch with and very responsive.
Our only issue was we wanted to stay longer because it was so perfect and she was able to accommodate us for a couple more days.
We loved it so much we booked it for 2 more weeks in October before we left!

From the day of booking up until our drive home, our host- Jessica has been extremely helpful & very quick to respond with any questions we had. The home is absolutely beautiful & was completely stocked with the best of the best! The kitchen had every possible tool/dish/appliance you could think of & all great quality (no junk pans like you typically see in rentals). The towels were EXCELLENT quality-- very nice, soft, & absorbent (unlike any rental I've stayed). The beds are all NEW! Very, very comfortable, allowing me to sleep like I do in my own bed. **The pool was PERFECT for both the adults & more importantly my kids (ages 4 & 1.5). The sun deck was the perfect area for my daughter to play & enjoy the pool without having to be in a float (mommy also enjoyed catching some rays at the same time)! I'm SO thankful that we paid the extra fee to heat the pool since we stayed in April & the temps were high 60s-low 70s. There were a few days that it was top cold or double red flags, making the beach a no-go. The heated pool was so enjoyable even on chilly days! The gated community provides an extra safe feeling & we all truly felt "at home." It is a very quiet area with sidewalks (great for walks/running). We enjoyed using the golf cart for quick adventures out, going to dinner, the beach, & ice cream runs! Very convenient to have!
What to bring:
-extra toilet paper
-dish soap (we didn't use the dish washer by choice)
-laundry soap/fabric softener
-shampoo/bodywash
-garbage bags
-papertowels
We truly could not have asked for a better place to stay & we will certainly be back!!

The Rustic Retreat home offered everything we needed for an incredibly relaxing two week stay. All furniture is modern and so comfortable. The golf cart to and from beaches, local restaurants and shops made travel super convenient. The pool with the splash pad is icing on the cake! The management team is super responsive and helpful. We had a slight issue with the thermostat. I sent a text, and Mason was at our door in less than 5 minutes! That’s service! I highly recommend choosing the Rustic Retreat to make memories with your family.

The house was amazing! Super clean and all the amenities you could possibly need. Great location ( about 8-10 minute walk to the beach) and the golf cart was an added bonus! Had to reach out to the property manager at one point about an issue with the golf cart and he was quick to respond and solve the issue.
The pool was fabulous and the splash pad was great for the little ones! Don’t hesitate… book it, you will not be disappointed!

We had the best vacation. The house is located centrally to all of our favorite things. The pool was fantastic and our son was in it every morning before 8am. The golf cart rides are always a big hit for us and the 6 seater was perfect to fit the whole family. We can't wait to come back!
