Great beach get away!

This was a wonderful beach getaway. Clean, updated beautifully, all things you could possibly need were included. Pool for a swim was a few steps away, and the beach was just a quick walk up a ramp. Lovely complex, quiet and well cared for. We would definitely stay again!

Overall, this place was totally adequate. In a condo complex and a short walk to the beach, which was beautiful. One of of the group was bothered by a musty smell. The sheets on the bed they smell strongly of bleach. We didn’t try to walk anywhere, but lots to do within a short drive. We stayed for four nights and it’s the only place I have ever rented that had a “starter supply of toilet paper“. Toilet paper is cheap and it seems like having extra on hand is not too much to ask. Overall, it gets average reviews from the three of us.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful location and proximity to the beach at Island Palms Retreat. We apologize for the musty smell that some in your group noticed, and we'll definitely look into this issue along with the scent of bleach on the sheets to ensure a more pleasant experience. We're sorry for any inconvenience caused by the limited toilet paper supply, and we appreciate your suggestion. Your comfort is important to us, and we hope to provide a more seamless visit next time.

Overall it was a nice place. We wished it was closer to the beach, however was not far. Good location and close to many attractions. Property management was excellent and very responsive. Our only complaint was that we could hear ppl upstairs walking as the walls were thin.
