Spring Break with the Kids

Very nice property. The openness of the living area was very comfortable. With the kids and some family members all present, the real bonus was the extra fridge. No need to haul along extra ice chests.

Lovely home and kitchen!

My family and I had a great time while staying here. There was an unfortunate tropical storm that derailed our specific plans, but we were glad to have such a nice kitchen and area to spend extra time in. There were a ton of board games (for kids and adults), toys, and books for little kids available. Plenty of towels etc. The kitchen was very well stocked with items and we were able to cook multiple full meals. The elevator was very helpful and worked well. I would recommend this place and would stay again!

FABULOUS PLACE!!!

Oh my goodness! The best beach house we have ever rented. We brought a group of friends who have never had the beach house experience. There was 7 1/2 of us total (all adults and 1 toddler) and we still had plenty of room. The pictures do not do this house justice. It is so much better! We will be repeat customers. The back lot was perfect for the truck and trailer (we brought 2 golf carts and 1 mini bike). We took advantage of one of the BBQ pits. This place is just amazing. 10 stars!!

Great property for family

This property had everything. My kids loved every aspect. I loved all the added bonuses that we didn’t have to pack and bring with us. They had games, books, children’s utensils, everything. The hosts responded to my questions immediately. This was my first stay ever, and we’ll definitely be back.

My family and I have been coming to Bolivar Peninsula for 10 years and we have always rented a different home. Sandy Feet Retreat has been our favorite home we have stayed in so far! It is very roomy with comfortable beds, plenty of seating on the porches, easy access to the beach, and beautiful views!! We will definitely be staying here again!! The hosts were also very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions we had.

Ready to return

Absolutely beautiful home. The layout & flow of the house was everything we didn’t know we wanted! Accommodating to us and my MIL that is elderly with dementia. She lived the house and the location and she, along with my husband and I, was not ready to leave and we are already talking about booking our next trip. We will definitely try to book this house again!

Wonderful experience!

This trip was outstanding! The property was exactly as described. It was in great shape in every way, and everyone from 6 to 86 was perfectly comfortable. Loved that we could all be together, but also take moments out to have some quiet away from the family chaos. Soooo many places to chill - front deck, back deck, entertaining space under the house. We never felt like we were on top of one another, and there were eight of us. Plenty of space for all kinds of activities, and a great kitchen, big enough for all of us to be buzzing around in that space without fights breaking out. LOL Communication with the hosts was exceptional, and they were very generous with their time and their property. Hated to leave!
