An amazing escape from the northeast that included the dog!
My wife, our dog and I loved Beach Haven! Snowbirds who still work remotely, this home was perfect for us. We stayed for the months of January and February. The layout was ideal for inviting extended family to get away from the cold of the northeast for a bit. With a King suite on each floor, the layout allows for privacy and separation that works well for large families or even multiple families. Beds are really comfortable! The house was well equipped, and we didn’t need to purchase anything for cooking. They even have a crockpot for making my chili and a great grill for my steaks. Location was the biggest plus for us. It’s less than a 10-minute walk to Pompano Joe’s and the public beach and only a 2-minute drive with the golf cart which was a big hit with the young adults. We also love to walk which is really not fun when it’s 10 degrees out up north and we certainly don’t love the walk to nowhere on a treadmill. However, Beach Haven’s location allowed to take daily walks down Scenic Gulf Drive. Our perfect loop was to walk to the end of the public beach parking at the Crab Trap and back. About 4.5 miles total. Also allows you to stop at a couple of different places for a break and a drink! The streetneighborhood is quiet and very dog friendly. There is a nice mix of short term and long-term renters as well as full time residents. Finally, the management company (Coastal Retreats) was awesome. They made everything easy… check-in, house instructions and check out were all simple. We only needed to contact them once as a drain in one of the showers was not draining properly. They returned our call promptly and someone come out to the house within an hour and unclogged the drain. He was friendly, courteous, and we never had any other issues.
Overall, it was a 5 out of 5 experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!
