My family and i had a wonderful time staying at the “Sandy Feet Retreat”!! Spacious, clean, comfortable and just minutes from the Beach. Owners very responsive, without being intrusive at all. Plenty of space to spread out, relax and enjoy the Shore. the house is so inviting … almost makes you wish for one day of rain!! (almost

Thanks Jaimie!! Please come back again soon! You took great care of our home! Safe travels, Tom and Family
The Sandy Feet Retreat had everything needed for our stay. These super hosts made sure to include all the necessary items inside and out! The house is a gem and very well kept. The best part is the home's relaxing atmosphere after a busy day at the beach (which is just over the bridge). It was nice to come home to a quiet place and sit out back on the dock or on one of the three decks. The kids loved crabbing, kayaking down the creek, walking up to the foot bridge and catching minnows! We enjoyed the Mud City Crab House and Old Causeway Restaurants which are just down the street. Special thanks to Tom and Mary Beth for sharing their little piece of heaven!! We will definitely be back!

We enjoyed hosting your family and appreciate your review~! Thanks again and come back soon! Tom, Mary Beth and Family
The Sandy Feet Retreat was our first Airbnb stay and we picked a winner! Tom and Mary Beth Skleros are super hosts and I can see why. Their communication was top notch which helped make the whole experience painless. The beach house rental was two floors and all the rooms were clean and beautifully decorated for a shore vacation. Lots of new furniture and appliances throughout! My family of 6 had plenty of room to relax inside and outside. We would definitely rent here again and would not hesitate to try one of their Florida Airbnb rentals. Thank you again!
