About this property

Pirates Beach Escape w/ Easy Beach Access, Shuffleboard

Are you ready to kick back, relax, and enjoy some soul-nourishing time with your favorite people? Little Honu Retreat is ready to bring all the characteristics of its namesake (the green sea turtle) to your vacation. Comfortable furnishings & perfectly equipped rooms flow together to ensure your well-deserved island vacation is one to remember for all the right reasons.

As soon as you pull into the private driveway you’ll notice the tropical landscaping and well-appointed patio area. A dining area, patio furniture, and fun tiki bar encourage evenings spent cooking up your fresh catch on the bbq grill, or lounging & air drying after a day on the beach and a quick rinse in the outdoor shower.

Ready to take your fun inside? Head upstairs to the open living area, complete with a large sectional sofa and several side chairs. This space opens onto the sunny deck, perfect for slow evenings in the Gulf breeze. The nearby dining table seats 6 and there’s additional seating at the breakfast bar. The cozy kitchen has plenty of room to prep budget-friendly family meals, as well as all of the pots, pans, serving pieces, utensils & glassware you’ll need during your stay.

Enjoy a little friendly competition at the shuffleboard, or head upstairs to the loft and try your hand at some foosball. In addition to the games, the upper level boasts 3 built-in bunk beds, a TV, seating area and attached full bath – perfect for kids of all ages! Back on the main level, you’ll find 2 queen bedrooms and a full bathroom off the hall.

Take a short two block walk through the neighborhood to reach the sand & surf. There’s a variety of beach toys & equipment for you to use. Hours of beachcombing, sunbathing, birding, or surf fishing await!
