Experience Your Vacation Haven

Flipper’s Retreat is a quaint, two story beach cottage located in the Serenity at Dune Allen community. From the moment you walk through the door of this luxury home, you are immediately immersed in a calming atmosphere. Coastal blues and neutrals are found throughout the home and the first floor living area is there to provide comfort after a long day. The kitchen bar and dining area are large enough to seat a crowd, so have all the group gather in the morning for brunch. The kitchen is fit for a chef, as it features bright white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances..

The first floor master bedroom is bright and airy with large windows. There is a king bed and the adjoining master bathroom is complete with a double vanity and large walk in shower. The laundry area and a half bath round out the remaining first floor area.

The second floor boasts another master bedroom with a king bed and an en suite bath, featuring a double vanity and walk in shower. There is also a cozy bonus area that includes a sofa sleeper. The remaining guest bedrooms feature a queen bed and two twin beds as well as a guest bath with a tub/shower combo.

The back patio area is paved and includes ample seating options as well as a BBQ grill. Sit outdoors awhile and relax or head over to the large community pool just across the street. There is also a golf cart included with the property, so take a short ride to the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico and let all your worries be washed away!

    Great property, everything you need plus a golf cart which was awesome. Great neighborhood close to restaurants and the beach. Nice outdoor space in the back and the pool was very close as well.

    Manager's Response

    Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled you enjoyed your stay and took advantage of the golf cart to explore the area. It's great to hear you appreciated the property's amenities and its convenient location near restaurants and the beach. We hope to welcome you back soon for another wonderful stay!

    We truly enjoyed our stay at Flipper's retreat. Very close to the beach and the golf cart was fun. Only my wife and I and our two dogs, so we mostly stayed on first floor. Also loved Stinkys which was very close. Enjoyed catching the sunset almost every night. There is a Nice area to walk the dogs across the street along the road. Would go back without the dogs next time - they aren't allowed on the beach which was a bummer. We did find plenty to do and the place was great.

    Manager's Response

    We are happy to hear you had such a wonderful stay! It sounds like you made the most of your time with us, enjoying the beach, the golf cart, and the nearby attractions. We're sorry about the beach restrictions for dogs, but we do appreciate your understanding and hope that won't deter you from returning in the future. Thank you for choosing us, and we'd love to welcome you back!

    What a gem! My family has stayed at various rentals up and down 30A, but this home stood apart!

    Pro's: golf cart (absolute must for the location), community pool, beaches (the best around), sizable home for family of 5, great management company, quiet end of the strip.

    Con's: nearby construction (no fault of the owner/management company), distance to shopping/dinning.

    I would give 5 stars across the board, but where I had 4 stars:

    Location: mixed bag, quiet end of the strip but still far from shopping/dining. A golf cart is an absolute must - we saw folks walking to the beach with small children sending shivers up our spine.

    Cleanliness: the home was immaculate, however, the renters before us clearly had a dog that shed. The cleaning crew needed to do a better job cleaning up dog hair.

    Overall, we highly recommend this home and plan to rent it in the future.

    Manager's Response

    We're thrilled to hear that you had such a wonderful experience and that our property stood apart from the others you've visited! Regarding the nearby construction and the distance to shopping/dining, we appreciate your understanding that these factors are beyond our control. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the overall cleanliness. We will work closely with our cleaning crew to ensure they do a more thorough job in the future for our pet-friendly properties. Despite these things, we are delighted that you and your group had an excellent and memorable vacation!

    This house is spacious for what we needed for a family of 4. Upon arrival we noticed the living room area was a bit stuffy. The ac unit in the living room doesn’t stay on. So if the door to the master bedroom stays closed the Living room becomes stuffy. We did contact management company and said they would send someone out but not sure if they ever did. Did not have a follow up on the issue. We just dealt with it for our duration of trip. The extra amenities for the kitchen and restrooms are nice. The EV golf cart is a big plus. Location and the proximity to the beach are also a plus. I felt the house especially the floors could have been a bit cleaner. We did find some clothes under one of the beds a previous guest had left. House was good overall.

    Manager's Response

    Thanks for the review and feedback, Teresa. Our team quickly followed up on the issue and are working to completely address the situation. We thank you for staying and are thrilled you loved the golf cart and location to the beach! We would love to host you again, so reach out if you decide on another beach retreat.

    Beautifully decorated house, very clean and spacious. Golf cart is a must and made it easier getting to the beach and going out and about. There were plenty of bath towels, beach toys in the outside chest, and the extra touches in the bathrooms, kitchen and laundry rooms which included soaps, etc. We would absolutely rent with this company again, and would recommend this property. Such a plus being about to bring our 5# schnoodle with us; she had a blast riding the golf cart as well. Being a pet-friendly property, there was no sign of smell or anything. VERY clean, beautiful, comfortable, and relaxing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    We enjoyed the quiet but close access to the beach and surrounding area. The house is close enough for a quick walk to the beach, but even quicker with the electric golf cart. Description of rooms are accurate; everything was very roomy and comfortable. Dishwasher & laundry appliances are on the low-end. Pool was a great size and very accessible. Stinky's Fish Camp nearby is highly recommended. The beach can get a bit cramped on nice days.

    Manager's Response

    Thanks for the review and feedback. Spring Break is one of our busiest times of the year, so there are crowds everywhere. It's good to know the golf cart helped with some of this, though. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you again soon.

    We really liked the layout of this home, as it was well suited to a large family. This is a relatively new build, so the appliances and bathrooms and basically the whole property felt updated and fresh. It was a 5 minute walk to the beach, but the golf cart was a great addition that made it a 1 minute trip to the beach.

    Great house in new subdivision!

    Really nice brand new house. Perfect for our family with 2 kids and grandparents. The golf cart is really nice for taking to the beach, there are 2 public beach accesses right outside of the subdivision. We really enjoyed our stay!

    Five of my friends and I rented Flipper's Retreat for a girls trip from September 22 - 26. The house was great for our sleeping arrangements, house was like new throughout, and we all loved the decor. The nice golf cart was an added bonus, and we loved using it to go to the beach. When we first arrived, the only problem we had was that the tv had no signal. When I called MVH, the woman answering the phone was extremely nice and helpful. She sent a repairman, and he immediately took care of the problem, and he also left us a nice note. Thanks for the help and a nice, fun trip.

    Manager's Response

    Faye, we love that you gave Flipper's Retreat at 5 star review for your girls trip. We are happy to hear that the home was accommodating and the décor was pleasant. Thanks for giving our My Vacation Haven Staff an extra applause for responding to the issue with your TV, those comments are always great to hear. Please let us know when you plan to make another beach vacation, we would love to help you make another great trip!
