Unfortunately we did not have any luck on the fishing side. There was a cold front that blew in the day we arrived and threw everything off: water level, wind. This is nothing that can be controlled. We will be back for a future stay. ##### Justin K.

It was very centrally located and convenient. The house came stocked with all the basics and the hosts went above and beyond by ensuring there were thing such as coffee filters, spices, and extra trashbags! We've stayed in many rentals and have never had that personal touch. It really stood out and made our stay that much more relaxing. While there, we had a hiccup with the pool. The host responded to my text immediately and had the issue resolved by the time we returned from lunch. It further demonstrated their attention to detail and hospitality. 5/5, 10/10, would absolutely stay here again and will highly recommend to anyone I know visiting the area! ##### Meghan H.

This house was like new: big gorgeous kitchen with large island, two king bedrooms that were good sized, with another bedroom with bunk beds. There is an ensuite master bath and a shared bath. The shared bath was huge and gorgeous, with two sinks. Kristen and the property manager were lovely, answering our questions quickly and coming by to fix a TV. There are four TVs! Great decor. I highly recommend paying the extra fee for heating the pool, especially if the weather is not hot. It was wonderful! Thus was the most well-stocked property we have ever seen, it has everything you might need. ##### Elizabeth B. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tomasz G. 28 Feb 2025 #### Pefect Place We had a very good time staying at Sunshine Retreat. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The communication with Kristen was smooth and prompt, making the booking process hassle-free. The space was very clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view of Salt Lake from back porch is amazing. The cold front arrived during our stay, therfore, we did not use kayaks or spent as much time outdoors as we would like. There was a technical issue with the pool heater when we arrived, however, Kristen, kept us informed about the attempts to repair and promptly reimbursed pool fee after discovering the repair will take longer than expected. We visited few local dining places and discovered that quality of food in Paradise Key was very dissapointing, however, PIK-NIK breakfast place was simply amazing. We also enjoyed Frank's Spaghetti House in Corpus Christi and their complementary glass of wine. Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We highly recommend Kristen's place for the stay in the area. ##### Tomasz G.
