How many guests can the home accommodate?

Up to 10. Thoughtfully designed for group travel, Salty Shores Retreat has spacious living areas, two king suites and a bunk room with a queen bunk and a twin bunk, and plenty of room for everyone to gather, unwind and enjoy their stay.

Is the home family-friendly?

Absolutely. It was designed with families in mind: a private pool, a dedicated game room, and family-friendly extras like a SlumberPod, a sound machine, a playard, a high chair, a stroller, pool toys and more, so travelling with little ones is easier. Toddlers, teens and grandparents can all relax, play and feel at home.

Is the kitchen fully equipped?

Yes. The kitchen is one of the heartbeats of the house: a dedicated coffee station, a butler’s pantry, barware and all the essentials for cooking and entertaining, plus family-friendly kitchen items for morning pancakes, pizza nights and taco feasts.

Yes. The private saltwater pool is solar heated, which keeps it comfortable for swimming through much of the year. Like any solar pool, it follows the sunshine; a run of grey days cools it.

How close is the home to the beach?

Florida’s coastline is minutes away. Watch the sunrise over the Atlantic, spend the afternoon swimming, surfing or collecting shells, and have dinner on the water at Flagler Beach. There are several beach access points nearby, and the beach shed has everything you need.

What are some popular activities nearby?

Beaches, scenic hiking and biking trails, waterfront parks, boating and kayaking on the Intracoastal, and a lively local dining scene. The European Village, minutes away, has cafés, restaurants, boutiques, live music and community events. Golfers have an impressive collection of championship and public courses, Hammock Beach among them.

What time is check-in and check-out?

Check-in is from 4:00 PM and check-out by 10:00 AM. Ask about early or late when the calendar allows.

Yes, free parking for two to three vehicles in the driveway.

No pets, so the house stays allergy-friendly for every family.

Can we shop the things in the house?

Yes. The Shop Our Home page links to the baby gear, kitchen things, games and pool and beach gear we keep here.

About your hosts

We’re Matt and Haylee

We are the founders of Salty Shores Retreat and proud parents of five amazing kids. With Midwest roots and a home base in the Northeast, we know how important it is to find places where families and friends can slow down, reconnect and make lasting memories together.

Our journey began with a simple dream: to create the kinds of vacation homes we would love to share with our own family and closest friends. Spaces that feel welcoming, thoughtfully designed and effortlessly enjoyable, where everything you need is at your fingertips, so you can focus less on logistics and more on making memories. Every home we create passes one test: would we want to stay here with our own family? If the answer is not a definite yes, we keep improving until it is.
