Walk to Sandfest, Shared Pools, Boardwalk to the Beach

There was a little confusion about early check in. I called 2 hours before our 4:00 check in and was told the condo was ready but upon arriving the main office staff was saying that the condo wasn’t available yet. Once that was cleared up, we were able to go ahead with our check in. The kitchen has most items needed but could definitely use a few new frying pans. There was 1 and it was very old with and not clean. No sponges available to clean with. The A/C worked but not very efficient in some of the bedrooms. The primary bedroom was freezing cold, and the 3rd bedroom was hot.

Traveling w/ 4 teen boys for a tournament. Location was perfect. Rooms and layout worked great. Couches are super comfortable, beds were fine. Kitchen was a nice space but lacking pots and pans to cook for a group of 7. There was only one old 8” pan and 2 small pots. The patio is decent but lacking seating. There was 2 chairs but one was broken. We used our own chairs. The boardwalk to beach is about 100 yards and the pool was just a short walk. The bbq pit area is nice, but you’ll need your own bbq tools. The building is older and a little run down but that didn’t bother us. Ac kept it cold.

We had a group of 7 ranging from 10-81 years old. The property was good. The boardwalks to the beach were close & a short walk to the beach & we spent many hours on the beach. There are many amenities onsite at Island retreat which we did not have time to utilize but it was nice that all were available. The unit we were in was per advertised. The AC cools primarily in the master, kitchen & living area & less so in the other 2 back bedrooms & bathroom. The toilet in the master does not flush well but all is understandable with an older property. We enjoyed that the living/kitchen/dining area was all open (one room). We would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay! It was clean, well stocked and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. It was close to the beach and restaurants/retail. We'd definitely stay here again.

This bottom floor unit was just what we needed for the week! We brought 4 teenagers with us and everyone had plenty of space. The Island Retreat had 2 large pools (the boys loved the deeper ends), tennis, pickel & basketball courts to enjoy as well as sand volleyball. The walkway to the beach that was closest to us was underwater, but the one on the other side of the complex was very nice. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, but could use some updated larger pots for cooking for a group our size. We had a great week and would definitely return!

Overall property was nice and conveniently located. The only issue was the AC. Did not cool well in back bedrooms. We were gone most of the day so didn't have time to address with property. We just dealt with it.

I liked the place and the property. Had a bit of trouble with the guards not wanting to allow any other cars in for the evening when we wanted to have family over, but we worked around it. It should be started on description that no visitors or only 2 passes nothing more. Also room was not ready at 4 as promised it was closer to 4:30.
