Fantastic family getaway.

This property had everything we needed for our family. The rooms were spacious for our family of 11 adults. Kitchen fully stocked, a variety of areas to relax inside and outside. We enjoyed our early morning coffee on the comfy outdoor furniture soaking in the beautiful views surrounding us.

Met all our expectations!

Beautiful spot tucked up outside of town but still conveniently located. The property was clean, well maintained. The management staff was attentive and helpful. We stayed with 6 couples and each of the spaces worked perfectly for our group. The pool was cleaned mid-week which was nice. Laundry on-site was perfect for towels and bathing suits. Plenty of amenities including pool floats, coolers, and beach chairs. We look forward to staying again.

Excellent stay

The view is gorgeous! Come for the view, stay for the amenities. There are fully stocked kitchens, bathrooms, and cold AC in all of the bedrooms. Lots of nice touches like ergo-mats, beach towels and chairs, spices in the cabinets, extra toilet paper, etc. The pool is great as is the hot tub, with the added fun of iguanas coming up for a visit at least once a day. The coordination and communication was excellent and our stay was wonderful -highly recommend Riley's Retreat.
