"Two words - book it. My family and I visit the island multiple times a year. We have stayed at many different properties, and this was one of our favorite. • You get the luxury of a private beach area, a big backyard with a paved space, hammocks, ping pong, and foozeball AND a dock with green lights that goes out the farthest on that side. This is the best fishing dock on the entire island. We brought so much food and ended bringing a lot of it back with us because we ate fresh fish every night. Snook, snapper, redfish, grouper. You name it, we caught it. Fishing is an absolute blast from this dock. • The house is perfect. It’s a great size, and I love that the ground level floor has an additional living space, bedrooms and half kitchen. It makes things so much easier when your lounging on the private beach area or fishing off the dock, you have easy access to the house. Many of the houses on the island don’t have this layout and you have to go up flights of stairs to get to a bathroom or fridge, so this is a big plus! This house is perfect for groups of all types, it has everything. The kitchen is 10/10 and has every gadget and cooking tool you could ever think of. They also provided pretty much every spice one would need. • The management team and Yanet are amazing so kind and helpful, brought our live shrimp from the mainland to our front door every morning. The host and owner is hands down the kindest most accommodating host I’ve ever booked with. Highly recommend!"

"This property is perfect for 4 people. Is just as listed. Location is awesome, minutes from beach. Pool is a huge plus for days you dont want the beach and evening swims.. Golf carts and bikes for use. Plenty of beach chairs, towels etc. House has all you need. Pots, pans, soaps, towels, ice maker, tv, internet. They have it all! House managers answered all questions, helped with groceries etc. Will definitely rent again!!!"

"It was everything we hoped for and more. We’ve never seen a home so stocked and ready to just come in and feel at home. Unfortunately I got sick on the trip and had to seek help from the fire department as to what the process would be to see a physician but other than that we consider the trip a huge blessing. Would definitely recommend this home."

"My whole family just got staying here for a week, 13 people ranging from ages 7 months to 64, and every single one of us loved it! The house was spacious, clean and had everything you needed. The views were beautiful from the porches. The pool was perfect for the kids when the beach got too hot! The hosts were reliable and quick to respond/help. We all give it 2 thumbs up and can’t recommend this home away from home enough!"

"Everything was perfect"

"Overall property met all of our needs. Location and amenities were as described in listing. Would recommend this property to others."

"We stayed at Gulf Dreams during the first week of April! We had wonderful warm weather and greatly enjoyed the heated pool and easy access to the beach. We had 4 adults and 4 teenagers and the layout out of the house was perfect for our group. The kitchen was well equipped and we ate most meals at the house. Pre-ordering the groceries was the way to go! Great communication with the property manager. The house was very clean. Highly recommend!"

"We had a wonderful time! The home was clean and stocked with everything you would ever need. We were traveling with all ages from 68 to two one yr olds. The two masters on the first floor were nice for my husband and I’s elderly mothers. The master up stairs had a wonderful bonus room that had a crib and a toddler bed. It was so nice having my youngest children so close but yet separated for some privacy. They had everything you would need for small children including baby gates, baby monitor and pack n plays. We would put the babies down for a nap and head to the beach with the monitor without any issue!There is also a nice shaded spot for the babies to play under the deck that kept my 1 and 4 yr olds occupied for hours. The beach was PERFECT. Wonderful sunrise views with calm waters for our younger children. The private beach was perfect and came stocked with yard games like cornhole and even games for the children. Also plenty of beach seating. The ice maker and fridge beachside were such a blessing. A cold drink was always just steps away. I also liked that our private beach had clear boundaries that kept my children on our property …. this was the first vacation wear my kids could roam and play and I could actually sit and relax. Great beachside fishing also! The gulf carts were in great shape and had plenty of room with having the two available. The owner and management company are very responsive and kind and are truly just a text away. Highly Recommend!"

"Very comfortable house with well-stocked kitchen. Super responsive and friendly owner. Amazing golf cart and fun sandy roads. Nice view of the harbor. Proximity to two restaurants. Great beach."
