Super cute place with lake views. There was a tiki bar right on the beach which was a great place to socialize and grab a drink. You could rent beach chairs and cabanas from the tiki bar too. The bartender at one of the restaurants was super nice and helpful and the restaurant above the pier had amazing views. They offered smores kits for free every night, which we enjoyed at one of many of fire pits on the property. Additionally the property was really close to a lot of convenient places like Heavenly Gondola, the casinos, the outdoor concert venue, and a 15 min drive from Emerald Bay. I would 10000% stay here again.

Beach Retreat and Lodge at Tahoe - place to stay

Excellent location and nice amenities. Right on a beach so you can walk out in your slippers and enjoy the beauty of Lake Tahoe. Has restaurant where you can get a quick bite and mourning fresh coffee for free. Safeway store is across the street, very convenient. Staff is very helpful and professional. Worked with receptionist Jasper and manager Jordan who were super helpful. Highly recommend a place.

It is definitely NOT a resort. Its a Motel next to the lake. Rooms were small. Thankfully we changed to a different hotel the same night. Bathrooms were so dirty. This place doesn’t look anything like the picture. Only pro amongst all the cons is that you can walk to the overly crowded “beach” But its definitely a Motel and not a resort !

This property could be AMAZING, however it is heartbreaking how dirty, musty, and out dated everything is. There's a fridge, no microwave. Our 1st room was so dirty we switched to another room after the 1st night. My son got out of the shower and walked to the bed and his feet were completely black on the bottom. The 2nd room wasn't much cleaner and the next 3 nights housekeeping NEVER CAME! We had to go to the front desk to ask for clean towels. Thankfully I travel with an extra roll of toilet paper and box of tissues, bc we needed them! The TV wouldn't turn off, so we had to unplug it. Once plugged in again it never turned back on. Not the biggest deal, but just added to our over all bad experience. Our 1st room was on the 2nd floor and we switched to the 1st floor to have easy access to the "garden" area thru the back sliding door. The door was more than difficult to open and close (of course we made sure the lock bar was down before trying to open the door) we ended up having to walk out the front door and around the back of the build for her to go to the bathroom. The air conditioner said 61° running constantly, and never came close to that. Bathroom window, while glazed had no curtain as the 2nd floor room did so we had to keep the window shut so no one could look in the screen. The comforters had blood stains on them, in both rooms! The gentleman at desk(who was leaving to go back to school) was super nice about everything and helpful. S'mores were a highlight.

It was on the beach and close to most things. However for the price I expected things to be better. The room was noisy, no body wash in the bathroom & the shampoo and conditioner worked poorly. There was a constant tapping from the air conditioner from the A/C above us dropping water, and the parking was terrible.

The location is good and the older buildings are well-maintained and the rooms are updated. It has direct access to the beach and a small, expensive bar. ($18 cocktails) I would not stay here again for several reasons. -- The vibe is more carnival cruise lines (loud music, drinking) than beach retreat, but it's not priced accordingly. -- they charge an extra $35/day resort fee that can't be justified by any resort amenities. They have a pool and hot tub. That's it . -- No gym. -- No onsite restaurant for breakfast most days (limited weekend service after 9am) -- No lounge, sitting areas to accommodate working on laptop with an outlet. -- WiFi in our building was terrible. -- management prioritizes loud, moneymaking group events (weddings and other gatherings) over guest experience.

Attempted a nice beach getaway.

If you want to party all day and all night then this is the place to stay. We had booked a partial lake view and our view was the Tiki Bar which blared Music almost the entire day into the evening. People took our chairs off the patio and used them at the tables - we had to ask for them back. On night 2 there was some sort of party that lasted well past 1030 and honestly we were over it. The staff was nonchalant about and said “oh well.” We attempted to eat at the restaurant one night, because well parking is a nightmare here, and were met with every table dirty, no wait staff only one bartender. We waited 20 min to even be acknowledged and honestly it was dirty so we left and we Walked the 1.5 miles to Stateline. The room was nice and the service staff were great.
