Great location, perfectly situated between the intracoastal and the ocean...
Nice house, needs a little TLC, a mix up with some plumbing issues that were supposed to be fixed before we arrived but they got it done while we were there only hindered our stay a little as the plumber showed up 2 hours later then expected. Plenty of room, the kitchen had everything we needed.

Excellent Vacation
This was exactly as described in the listing and in most reviews. The place was nice and there is a large amount of sitting room. Would definitely rent again.

Great Place to Staty
Extremely clean, with short walk to the beach. But being off the main road, made it very peaceful. Will stay here again.

Not as Expected
The house had a musty smell that we couldn’t get rid of, even after a few days of airing it out. Everything inside was pretty much outdated and worn out including the cobwebs and crumbs. The area was fine and Vacasa seemed easy to communicate with.

Robert's Retreat
House was as advertised. Good location to the beach and to the bridge on/off the island. Each room has its own AC so each room can be adjusted to prefered temperature. Would stay here again.

Summer Getaway
Robert's Retreat is a older beach house about 6 blocks from the ocean in a nice neighborhood. It's comfortable like many of the beach houses we've stayed in at Holden Beach. We worried that it might be hot because of the chalet style, but the mini-split AC system allowed each room to be comfortably cooled. There was a dehumidifier that we emptied a couple of times a day. One ceiling light was flickering and the repairman came pretty quickly to fix it. There weren't a lot of serving utensils, so it could use some spatulas, serving spoons, etc. as well as some minor repairs like towel rods in the bathrooms. Overall, it was a very good experience.
