No problem. That's why we're all here on the boards...
IMO, I would just pick a time that you know he's available, and tell him you're headed to the beach house for a few days. Leave it up to him if he wants to go. Don't necessarily offer, but don't tell him you want to be alone, either. It should get his attention. Then, if he's interested, he'll let you know somehow, and you can invite him along.
