We really enjoyed our time at A Beach Retreat! The location is unbeatable, just steps from the beach and easy to find. Our room was spacious, very clean, and comfortable. Parking was easy and stress-free. The staff was friendly and helpful, and even the other guests were warm and easy to talk to. It had a laid-back, welcoming vibe. The hotel is also conveniently close to lots of restaurants. We would definitely stay here again!

A little bit of Old Florida

IA wonderful old Florida hotel right on the beach. The room was spacious and had everything for a pleasant stay. A comfortable bed, a nice kitchen and a large shower, parking in front and a very short stroll to the beach made for a great stay.

Fabulous old-Florida style right on water

Stayed only one night, but wish it was longer! Room was nicely updated and all appliances were new. Owners were friendly and helpful. Kitchens decently equipped, but I didn't really use much. What makes this motel really noteworthy is the location right on the beach. Lots of places to sit on chairs and tables at motel, or grab a lounge chair and hang at the beach. The pictures do not lie! Highly recommended.

I liked the property was on the gulf and the canal. The traffic was a little noisy and speeding so you needed to be careful crossing the road if your unit was not on the gulf side. It would have been nice to have coffee in the room. There is a coffee pot but no coffee. Also no salt or pepper for cooking. Kitchen is stocked with dishes and pans though. The staff was very friendly and let us check in early.
