Beach Dreams is a great property. It is perfect for two adult couples or a family of 4. We did not use any of the amenities. We were there for the beach! The location and access to the beach was great. The only thing better would have been beachfront!There are a lot of stairs to ascend/descend every time you come or go. We were all healthy enough that this did not bother us. But, it is something to keep in mind.We really enjoyed the area and hope to return in the future.- Reviewed On: 7/14/2026

Thank you for your review. Glad Beach Dreams was a great fit for two adult couples or a family of four and that you enjoyed the beach access and location. Sorry about the many stairs — that’s an important note for future guests. We appreciate the five-star rating and hope to welcome you back. Have a beachy day!Visit Florida Beaches staff
Overall great stay. It beats staying at a hotel constantly waiting on an elevator and listening to people you share a wall/ceiling with. The house was very clean and a great place to hang out. Only downside was the traffic was all night long and you could hear it in the bedrooms at all times. Other than that, not a single complaint. Pool was a plus for the kids.- Reviewed On: 6/26/2026

We LOVED our stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better location. Super close to a lot of good lunch spots, and a 10-15 minute drive to downtown Port St. Joe for shopping and dinner.- Reviewed On: 5/24/2026
