Worked perfectly for me

Great location, convenient to both ends of the island, well located on main street with a little road noise. Very clean upon arrival. Quick response for a couple of small concerns. I would definitely stay again. Older but updated throughout , walking distance to most things on the island and near trolley stops and the beach. I loved it!

Great location, property just as advertised.

Had a 7 day stay with my family. The owner has truly thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and make you feel right at home. We had a cold day and enjoyed the assortment of board games for a family day in. The neighbors on the other side are super nice and very helpful with suggestions. We had a small snafu when we arrived with the hot water heater going on, but it was addressed promptly and taken care of ASAP. We are already planning out next stay here. You won't be disappointed.

Holmes Beach Retreat

We arrived at the property on the 26th of December. It was extremely clean! It was cold and we needed to have the heat on. We couldn't get it to work and they were very fast at responding and getting it going. It was user error! They had so many items available for us that we didn't need to do a lot of shopping. The back porch was so nice and had a grill. Waits for dinner, after sunset, were up to 3 hours so having the grill to use was very nice! The trolley was right across the street, which was super convenient. We walked to the beach daily. Access is very easy and close. The area was quiet and the neighbor was super nice! I would highly recommend this place and will definitely try to book it again!
