We All Loved It!
We were a multi-generational family group, ages 4 to 74, and we all had a great time. The condo accommodated 2 couples and 2 young ones easily. The location is absolutely perfect, with quick access on a boardwalk to a nice beach, no car or jeep needed. Everything in the condo was as described. The 6 of us could eat together at the kitchen bar. The pool was a great alternative to the beach. We got lucky with a live band playing at the pool one evening. We would definitely go back.

Great Location in Port A!
Not far from the restaurants and balcony looks over the dunes to the gulf! We always stay at Island Retreat because you can walk to the beach! This unit is great for two couples, but it is showing some minor wear.

Great location!
We enjoy IR stays! This condo was perfect for 4 - beds were comfy, kitchen was well stocked, towels were plenty, balcony was nice. Bring trash bags though! We only had the original for a 4 night/5 day stay. Overall would book again! :)

Great
We loved this place. The only issues were that the TVs weren’t working. I also tried to contact someone several time shortly after booking about a late checkout request and never got a response. After checking in the front desk people approved a late checkout but I was told last minute on checkout day that I had to be out because the owners were checking in. Other than that, our stay was fabulous. I was very impressed how comfortable the beds were; I’m pretty pick when it comes to a good mattress but slept like a baby.

Agency double booked our room
The resort double booked our room. They fixed it at the last minute, but none the less, we had to deal with scrambling around to have a place to stay.
