Great place, great location, beach only 2 minutes walk away
Pros:

We stayed in #11. Clean and very comfortable. We used to stay at The Retreat Beach Houses years ago for many many times, but this was the first time in a few years. Unit had a toilet on the top level, which is great. So close to the beach. We love the place.

Cons:

We liked everything.

Relaxing and peaceful. We had everything we needed.
Pros:

Overall our stay was very good - we were out a lot enjoying the local area and eating out. The view was amazing and it was very peaceful and we loved how it was tucked into the trees. Thanks for the Uno and playing cards!

Cons:

Really just minor maintenance things - The cistern in the main bathroom ran the whole time, the laundry door kept swinging open and the top sliders onto the deck needed wrestling shut.

Pros:

Great value for money and a very short walk to the beach. Was a beautiful house with great facilities and very comfortable.

Cons:

The shower in the bedroom leaked water into the bedroom during every shower so we had to put a towel down to soak up the water each time.
