This is our second stay in this rental and it was just as clean and a good experience as the first time. The location to the pool is great and the walk to the beach is only about 5 minutes. Will stay here again.

This was a nice place with plenty of room and a small backyard for the kids to hangout when we weren’t at the beach. Beach access is about a mile walk, but they had a shuttle that we were able to use almost every time. I would recommend this place.

House was as described. All appliances were in working order and the fridge kept our group in plenty of ice. We appreciated the wagon on premises to haul my daughter and our beach gear. Loved the quiet, gated community with friendly neighbors. Fenced backyard was a bonus for our small dogs. Only complaint was the downstairs floor could use a good scrubbing because it left our socks dirty, even on the first day. Overall, good rental and would stay again.

What really impressed me about this house was the space available for pur large group paired with the privacy of the beach providing ample space for everyone on the busiest week of the year! I have been to Destin many times, and never before have I had so much privacy, and this is the first Fourth of July week I've stayed there. Only cons are the dated things in the house and the floors weren't mopped thoroughly. Other than that, I highly recommend this place AND Crystal Waters realty for the best price on one of the best neighborhoods and homes available on the gulf!

Hi Eugene, Thank you for the feedback on your stay at Ocean Dreams. We take pride in our competitive rates and great properties. Come back and stay with us again! ~Crystal Waters Vacations

Bill and Terry were very responsive each time I contacted them. They were very professional and courteous. I visited the office to sign my contract and the property manager was very friendly. The rental was clean and spacious. The living room sofa and the mattresses were uncomfortable but I was still very satisfied with this rental. I’ve been traveling to This area every summer for the past 20 years, and this is one of the best rentals we’ve been to.

My Husband and myself got there before everybody else did. We were wanting to be alone for a day before everybody else got there it was our 20th anniversary. The house smelled cleaned like they just mopped the floors with PineSol. The house is directly across from the pool thank goodness for that when we got there the two of us went to the beach and had "red tide" so we came back up and relaxed at the pool. We were supposed to be there from Oct 5-13. But....we had a mandatory evacuation for a hurricane Michael. We did like the house for the short time we were there very clean. Thank you for a clean nice home. I do recommend the trip insurance. Thanks to Crystal Waters Reality to recommending the insurance.

Hello James, We're happy to hear you and your wife were able to enjoy a few days for your Anniversary before the storm. We hope you'll come back and stay with us again next year!

The owner was fantastic and understanding about adding a pet last minute to our reservation and were very prompt with their responses. Also the dryer malfunctioned and they had a brand new one delivered and installed within an hour. That’s incredible customer service! Cable TV in every single room including the breakfast room! Great place and great location right across from the heated pool and short walk to the beach! Thanks again for a great experience!

If you have tried to book a condo for golfers you know how hard it is to find something reasonably priced with at least 8 beds. This one is it, we had a great time and everyone had a bed, no pullout couch needed. Will definitely book again.

This was an upgrade over our original rental, as the AC unit for that house broke before we arrived. The property managers were very professional and helpful. The house was clean and comfortable. The back porch is more storage area than a sitting area, but it worked for us as the kids made use of the floats and beach toys.

It was enough space for 12 people not to feel crowded. The home was clean and well maintained. The best part was the 5 minute walk to the beach and the pool being right across from the house.

Ocean Dreams was the perfect home for our family. We could spend time and have meals together, then go to the pool,the decks or our bedrooms for some "alone" time. The house was well supplied. The only thing I felt we needed was a step stool in the kitchen to reach the shelves that were too high for those of us who are shorter.

Manager's Response

So glad you all enjoyed Ocean Dreams. It is a nice home with great pool views and so close to the beach! Will mention the step stool when the owners come down next month!

This house Ocean Dream is a very clean house with almost anything as far as the kitchen goes. This house is directly across from the pool. Maybe 5min to the beach. Very secure even the beach access is gated. We went in October the beach isn't real crowded but still warm.
The masterbedroom has the memory foam mattress which is awesome (king) they have a cute back yard with picnic table and a red wagon which you can put your stuff in to take to beach and toys for the beach for the kids. The bedrooms flatscreen TV's even in diningroom.
The only thing was we tried the gas grill couldn't get to work and a little dirty so we went to Lowe's right down the street and bought a cheap Charcoal grill but that was minor. The house was great for our big family. Would recommend to anyone with big families.

The house and the location was beautiful. The gated community felt very safe. The house was clean. The walk to the beach was about a 10 minute walk. Wish it would have been a little closer to the beach. Didn't like crossing the street to get to the beach. Everyone enjoyed the stay and the beach was beautiful. Will definitely stay again.

Manager's Response

So glad you enjoyed your stat at Ocean Dreams! It is a super nice home very close to the beach in a gated neighborhood. It truly is less than 1/4 mile, less than one time around a high school track! Most people walk it in only 5 minutes. Glad you liked the location and would stay again. We look forward to it!

This was our third stay in Ocean Dreams. It is conveniently located, well appointed,and well maintained. My only complaint is that Highway 98 is getting overcrowded in the summer, so getting into and out of the development took more time.

Manager's Response

So glad you enjoyed your stay at Ocean Dreams and that you've been there 3 times! It is a nice home in the best neighborhood along our stretch of beach! Traffic has been bad recently but keep in mind, we have an exit to Scenic Gulf Drive along the beach too. It does help to get around in the Summer. I think the problem on 98 last week was that there were accidents that may have caused some slowdown. Hopefully, that is not the norm!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! It was amazimg. The rooms were perfect. I loved hanging out on the balcony. The walk to the beach was not far. And the private beach was perfect. Not overcrowded at all. The pool in our view was great for us parents. It was a home away from home. We will be back!
