From the reviews
My wife and I had an absolutely incredible stay. Everything from the cleanliness to the amenities and ambience, it was just perfect. The views of the ocean from the balcony you can't beat. The soaking tub on the porch is a wonderful experience as well.
What a gem! We had a lovely stay at Baker Bay retreat in the Nest cottage. It is a gorgeous property in a stunning location. The quality of the craftsmanship and attention to detail was impressive. We had everything we needed for a relaxing stay in a truly special place.
Getting married at Baker Bay Retreat
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
