Many of the communities along 30A are continuing to expand, so many more individuals can come enjoy the crystal blue waters of the Panhandle. Unfortunately, a side effect of this is construction and all the items that come along with it, such as noise, road blocks, etc. We understand this can be inconvenient for our guests, which is why we have chosen to make all possible guests aware of the possibility of this during their beach vacation. As most of this is outside of 30A Cottages realm of control, we are not able to offer discounts/compensation for any noise complaints, road blockades, etc. during a guest's stay. Please reach out to a team member with any questions you may have!

Great House and Location!
We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Dreams! We stayed with another family, had 4 kids under 4, and had plenty of room. The house was kid friendly, but note that one of the bunk rooms was pretty high and probably better for older kids. The house was in a perfect location to the community pool, beach, and town center! We had some issues with the fire alarm/front alarm, but property management was great at communicating and coming over in a timely manner to fix. Would definitely stay again!

We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Dreams
Home was very family friendly. Nice location, walking distance to everything. The only complaint we had, was the forward downstairs bedroom “bed” was horrible and needs replacing!! I suggest a Costco queen mattress. Otherwise we had a great time
