About this house rental

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!

Beautiful house, extremely well stocked kitchen and spice cabinet, and great location! Lots of little touches made it feel like home: q-tips and cotton rounds in the bathroom, lots of coasters and table decor, plenty of board game options. Our little ones enjoyed the upstairs. Biggest bonus is the giant collection of beach supplies downstairs: chairs, a beach cart, boogie boards, umbrellas, sand toys, and a couple of kites! Made our Labor Day weekend very enjoyable. The lockbox was a bit difficult, but given the salty air that is to be expected.
