About This Home

Unit 142 at Island Retreat is located on the ground floor for easy access but you still get peeks of gulf views! This efficiency condo has been lovingly cared for over the years and remodeled to bring it up to date on the latest style. Currently, it's used as a rental condo and spends a lot of its time booked up with return guests. Island Retreat offers a beachfront location, beach access, pools, sports courts, barbecue areas, greenspace, playground and much more. This in town location can't be beat and this price for a beachfront unit can't be matched!
