We had an excellent stay at the Island Retreat unit 104. Plenty of room for 6 adults, easy walk to the beach, clean. We had an issue with the coffee maker and they drove over with a new one! Excellent service.If I could change one thing, it would be to have more tall chair for the deck. :) We will be back next year.

Beautiful Condo!

We loved this unit. From the interior to the view of the ocean, we loved Beauty and The Beach. We had a group of 7 and there was plenty of room to stretch out and be comfortable. It was a very relaxing vacation and Beauty and The Beach was the main reason why. It had everything we could ask from a rental unit. Including games! There are 2 pools on site and we enjoyed them both. Side note: If we had to choose, we would go with the pool next to the tennis/pickleball/basketball court. It had less people. We even had the pool to ourselves a couple of times.

We loved our stay at Beauty and the Beach. We had a fantastic time. Perfect location. The condo was very nice. The only thing we were missing was a full length mirror. Women like to see their outfits head to toe. We would definitely like to book Beauty and the Beach again in the future.

It was great to be back at Beauty & The Beach! As Winter Texans we stayed in this unit several years ago, but due to Harvey had been unable to return until this winter. We tried other units around town but none were as perfect of a fit. The location is great and the amenities are superb! We stayed for two months, loved it, and have re-booked for next winter. That's the highest compliment we can give.

As Winter Texans we stayed for two months (Jan/Feb) in IR104 prior to Harvey. This was the first year we were able to return. Very nicely remodeled and very comfortable. Location is great! We have already booked it for Jan/Feb 2024. That's the highest recommendation we can give.

I spent four days here with 7 other girlfriends. This place is absolutely beautiful, has everything you need for a wonderful beach escape. I loved all the chairs on the back deck facing the ocean and the fact that you can walk to the beach is ideal! The decor is so lovely!! I look forward to coming back for either a family vacation or another girl’s getaway!!

This condo is perfect for family getaways. We had such spacious accommodations in this condo and was able to sleep our family of 5 plus a friend. From morning coffee on the back porch, to a fun day on the beach that is within walking distance, to late evening in our pj's listening to the ocean and looking at the moon once again from the back porch. It is newly renovated and updated. The decor is bright and beachy! We just love Beauty and the Beach!

Beautiful place, gorgeous views, ridiculously easy beach access! Relaxing as heck, too. The couch, chairs in living area are to sink into... The beds - seriously comfy. Although I got up for gorgeous sunrises, the knockout blinds in the master are great should you want to sleep in. We cooked everyday and the kitchen had all we needed. hard to complain...
