The Respite – A Stylish, Family-Friendly Retreat Near Hershey

Welcome to The Respite, your home away from home nestled in the peaceful hills of West Hanover Township—just minutes from the magic of Hersheypark, Chocolate World, and all the sweet adventures Central PA has to offer!

Designed with families and groups in mind, this stylish 4-bedroom, 2-bath getaway offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and modern charm.

Whether you're making pancakes in the fully equipped kitchen, enjoying a game night around the dining table, or curling up for a movie in the comfy living room, every moment here feels effortless and connected.

The lower-level family room offers a second hangout space—great for teens or quiet downtime. And outside, the large deck and patio invite you to grill, share stories, or simply breathe in the fresh air.

With central A/C, fast WiFi, a washer and dryer, and two full bathrooms (one with a tub, both with hair dryers), The Respite is fully stocked for a stress-free stay.

A Hidden Gem

This property is all that it say that it is. The home is cleaned and decor is very creative. What you see online is the true painted picture of the home. The communication was a 10/10. Very close to Hershey Park and other places. Everything we needed was available. If you’re ever in the area I encourage you to get this gem if it’s available. I am very meticulous about staying in other places other than home, but I felt very comfortable in this home. The owner was even thoughtful enough to leave the kids a snack!
