  • Gorgeous Property!

    5/5

    We enjoyed our stay at “ Sailors’s Retreat” over spring break! The backyard view on the water is breathtaking! Very private and quiet. Kids enjoyed hoping out of the pool and grabbing their fishing poles and fishing off the dock. House was very well equipped with everything we needed, including pool towels. Saw dolphins every morning too! Drove to AMI for a beach day. Recommend parking at Coquina Beach by 9:30am for tons of free parking. Utilized the trolley as well to head up north to Bridge Street from Coquina which was a great way to save $ on parking. All in all a great week!

    Plenty of room for the 8 of us. The backyard view was beautiful and we got to see dolphins! The pool was amazing and everyone in the family enjoyed it. Definitely would be a place we would go back to.
