Rabbit Retreat 2025

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: SVP has always been wonderful to work with. We have been a customer for almost 20 years and they have always done their best to fulfill our needs in finding a rental property that fits our needs. The Rabbit Road Retreat worked for us. One of the best parts of this place was the landlord. He immediately took care of any of the small problems we encountered. He and his wife were great to work with, and while they respected our privacy, we quickly became friends. The property was not in walking distance to the beach, but a golf cart with parking permits was provided for our use, which was a fun solution.
