The Barachois Beach Family Retreat was beautiful, spacious, clean and close to all amenities. Communication with the host was quick and helpful. It was as described in the listing. As we were a large group of 7 we really enjoyed the seating areas. Lots of room for eating, relaxing and playing games as a group. The bedrooms were very nicely decorated and very comfortable. Lots of towels, beach towels, very nice laundry room. The beautiful beach is just down the road! Absolutely stunning!

Great Location with a Pool

We stayed here as a family (grandparents, and two daughters with spouses and their children) and it was a fantastic property with a large pool with diving board and a slide, which got lots of use. The children also enjoyed the toys and dress up clothes available. North Rustico beach is lovely and just a ten minute drive away.

Rustico gem

Very nice, clean, modern house. We were nine adults. Plenty of room. The basement has a games area ( board games, dominoes, etc ). The basement also has a room with toys and costumes for youger kids if that applies. Large wrap around deck. Ten minutes from North Rustico and a fairly well equipped grocery store. Kitchen and bathrooms are equipped with everything you need.

Girls’ Weekend

A group of 5 spent a long winter weekend in this lovely home. The house was spacious and bright and the propane fireplace did a great job of keeping us all warm and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and the basement space provided a totally separate living area. The host was very helpful, responsive and accommodating. We had a wonderful time!

Amazing

House has large yard for games, running around, fire pit ( it was way too windy this time but perfect last year), kids & adults loved the pool, very centrally located, about 25 min to Charlottetown and Summerside. About 20 minutes to Cavendish. Rooms are large, beds are comfortable. Kitchen is beautiful, lots of room and open to large family room. Anytime we vacation in PEI, we will be booking this house again!

Loved our stay!

Beautiful home near Barachois Beach, a hidden gem! Owner was attentive and responsive. The pool was perfect for cooling off during the PEI heat wave. Close to North Rustico. Our party was 12 adults and 2 children ages 6 and 8. The host provided board games, toys and outdoor games. Lots of room to run. We enjoyed watching the sunset and sitting around the fire pit.

Awesome

Our family of 13, Ten adults and three children had plenty of room to be together but also have some alone time lol. Great location. Everything seemed to be close by. Gallants Country Store is just down the road & around the corner & carries a great selection of items. Kitchen was well stocked with plates, glasses, cups, cutlery, ect. Would suggest maybe a medium sized frying pan as it was either an 8" or a deep sided 12", nothing in between. The pool was a wonderful addition to our stay. Hard to keep the kids & adults out of it. Lots of outdoor area to play and the firepit was super! Will definitely be booking again if/when we return to PEI

Amazing stay in PEI

A Family Paradise: Our Barachois Beach Retreat Our recent stay at the VRBO Barachois Beach family retreat on Prince Edward Island was nothing short of magical. The property was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the ocean and a serene, peaceful atmosphere. The house itself was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The pool was especially perfect for the kids! The kids loved playing on the beach and exploring the nearby tide pools. We also enjoyed taking leisurely walks along the shore and watching the beautiful sunsets. The location was perfect, with easy access to local attractions and restaurants. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. They provided us with great recommendations for things to do and were always available to answer any questions we had. If you're looking for a relaxing and unforgettable family vacation, I highly recommend the Barachois Beach family retreat. It's the perfect place to unwind, create lasting memories, and experience the beauty of Prince Edward Island.

We stayed here for about 5 days and I must say we enjoyed every day there the pool was great to have and it was important for us to have separate areas for the family!! Everyone had there private section of the house. We celebrated our 50 th wedding anniversary and it was important that there was enough room for our large family!! I would not nit pick on anything that we experienced, there will always be issues and they helped in any way they could
