We had a lovely stay at the Retreat which is a beautiful location just down from the main street and 2 blocks to beach. Having a kitchenette in the room gave us options for all meals and plenty of space. The pool area is spacious and beautiful offering dining options too as there is also two grills. Clean and tidy and the lovely couple who run it will help you with questions bookings etc.

'It was fairly quiet. The studio apartments mean that there are no families with noisy children in the pool. We found the kitchen area very small and hard to use but the bathroom was nice and big. An easy walk to the beach makes it ideal.

Good location, bed needs improving.
A good location close to the Main Street and Marina. Nice pool. Simple room facilities, disappointing about the uncomfortable bed. Two singles joined but a large ridge in the bed that was very prominent making for a restless night sleep.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Location is perfect. Service and amenities were great. Room and laundry were clean. Pool area was lovely. Only downsides were we found our beds very uncomfortable and the birds and kids walking past during the night were very loud but eat plugs did solve this issue. Staff were friendly and helpful. Will definitely consider staying here again.
